Machine-written summary

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

Liferay Portal 7.2.0 through 7.4.2-ga3 (excluding 7.4.2-ga3) and Liferay DXP versions before 7.2.10.fp15 do not properly restrict child site membership when the "Limit membership to members of the parent site" option is enabled. A remote authenticated user can add users who are not members of the parent site to a child site, and those users may gain permissions to perform unauthorized actions there. Upgrade Liferay Portal to 7.4.2-ga3 or Liferay DXP to 7.2.10.fp15 or later.
