Issue

  • In the Liferay theme dependencies, Lodash versions 3.10.1 and below are used extensively as dependencies throughout.

  • Versions of Lodash prior to 4.17.5 suffer from a security risk: CVE-2018-3721

Environment

Resolution

  • Impact to Liferay DXP:
    • Liferay DXP is not vulnerable to this issue with Lodash because this code runs solely on a developer machine and not on any web-facing platform.
  • Impact to Developers:
    • Developers are not vulnerable to this issue as long as development machines are secured because to gain access to the vulnerability, an attacker would need to access the developer machine.
