Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection') vulnerability leading to a possible RCE in Apache OFBiz scrum plugin. This issue affects Apache OFBiz: before 24.09.02 only when the scrum plugin is used. Even unauthenticated attackers can exploit this vulnerability. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 24.09.02, which fixes the issue.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

A code injection vulnerability in Apache OFBiz's scrum plugin allows unauthenticated attackers to inject and execute arbitrary code, leading to full remote code execution. The vulnerability stems from improper control of code generation within the scrum component.

MitigationUpgrade Apache OFBiz to version 24.09.02 or later. If the scrum plugin is not needed, consider disabling it until the upgrade can be performed.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify OFBiz installation and version
    Locate the OFBiz installation directory and check the version. Common locations include the version.properties file or build.gradle in the root directory. Look for a version marker such as 'ofbiz.version' or check the release notes included with the installation.
    Affected if The installed version is earlier than 24.09.02 (e.g., 24.03.x, 18.12.x, or earlier releases).
  2. Confirm the scrum plugin is present
    Check if the scrum plugin directory exists within the OFBiz installation. The scrum component is typically found under the plugins/ or framework/ directory structure. Look for a folder named 'scrum' or similar scrum-related components.
    Affected if The scrum plugin directory exists in the OFBiz installation.
  3. Verify the OFBiz release is vulnerable
    Compare the identified OFBiz version number against the affected version range. Versions below 24.09.02 are considered affected by this CVE.
    Affected if The installed OFBiz version is any version prior to 24.09.02 and the scrum plugin is present.

A system is affected if it runs any version of Apache OFBiz prior to 24.09.02 with the scrum plugin installed and enabled.

Interim mitigation

Upgrade Apache OFBiz to version 24.09.02 or later. If the scrum plugin is not needed, consider disabling it until the upgrade can be performed.

Recommended fix High confidence

24.09.02

  1. 1. Back up your current Apache OFBiz installation and database before proceeding with any upgrade.
  2. 2. Download Apache OFBiz version 24.09.02 from the official Apache OFBiz download page (ofbiz.apache.org).
  3. 3. Stop the currently running OFBiz instance if it's active.
  4. 4. If you have custom configurations or data, migrate them to the new installation - review the upgrade notes in the release documentation.
  5. 5. Deploy the new version 24.09.02 and start the OFBiz services.
  6. 6. Verify that the scrum plugin is functioning correctly after the upgrade.
  7. 7. Test that the code injection vulnerability is no longer exploitable - the RCE via the scrum plugin should be patched.
Caveat Review release notes for any breaking changes between your current version and 24.09.02; test thoroughly in a staging environment before production deployment
