Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Liferay Portal 7.4.0 through 7.4.3.132 and Liferay DXP across several 2024 and 2025 releases, along with the com.liferay.frontend.taglib.clay component before 15.2.2, have a reflected cross-site scripting flaw. A remote attacker with an authenticated account can inject JavaScript through the "first display label" field of a custom sort widget's configuration, which runs when the page is refreshed. Upgrade DXP to 2024.Q1.17 or 2025.Q1.11, or the clay taglib to 15.2.2; no fixed version is listed for Liferay Portal 7.4.x.
