## Affected packages

- `com.liferay:com.liferay.object.service` (Maven): affected `<1.0.96`; fixed in `1.0.96`

## Machine-written summary

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

> Liferay Portal and Liferay DXP, via the Maven package com.liferay:com.liferay.object.service before 1.0.96, do not restrict Groovy scripts in Object actions for admin users. A remote authenticated user with the Instance Administrator role can run arbitrary Groovy scripts and so execute code on the server. Upgrade com.liferay:com.liferay.object.service to version 1.0.96 or later. Liferay DXP 2024.Q2 and later can restrict Groovy in Object actions through a setting in Instance Settings.

## Check whether this affects you

A Match means an installed version is in the affected range above. Most don’t affect the app; agentprime hasn’t analysed this one yet.

- With the agentprime MCP server (<https://api.agentprime.io/mcp>), ask your agent to check the project: `check_lockfile` sends a lockfile, `check_packages` a list of installed packages, and both return the Matches and the upgrades that clear them. `get_advisory` returns this record. Setup: <https://agentprime.io/mcp.md>
- In a browser: <https://agentprime.io/check/> reads your lockfile in the browser, never uploading it.
- Whether it touches your code, with file and line: the Claude Code plugin, <https://agentprime.io/plugin.md>
- As JSON: <https://api.agentprime.io/v1/advisories/GHSA-m5gv-vj3f-6v2p>, or `POST https://api.agentprime.io/v1/match` with your packages (<https://agentprime.io/api.md>)
