The CVE-2025-XXXX vulnerability is a reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) flaw within the Liferay Portal’s comment discussion module. It specifically exists in the `get_editor` endpoint (/c/portal/comment/discussion/get_editor). This path fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input before including it in the server’s response. An attacker can craft a malicious URL containing a script payload as a parameter. When an authenticated victim is tricked into clicking this link, the script is reflected and executed within their browser session. This allows the attacker to perform any actions the user is authorized to do, such as stealing session cookies or manipulating the portal’s content.
