Machine-written summary

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

Liferay Portal's com.liferay.portal.impl package is vulnerable in versions before 97.0.0, including Liferay Portal 7.4.0 through 7.4.3.111 and Liferay DXP 2023.Q4.0 through 2023.Q4.2, 2023.Q3.1 through 2023.Q3.5, 7.4 GA through update 92, and 7.3 GA through update 35. The ComboServlet does not limit how many files or how large a combined response it will produce. A remote attacker can send a crafted URL query string to create very large responses and cause a denial of service. Upgrade to 97.0.0 or later.
