CVE-2026-29226 Apache CVE debrief

Who should care

Apache OFBiz administrators, application owners, and security teams responsible for deployments that use the Content component. Any environment that allows the affected operations and can reach internal or external services from the OFBiz server should prioritize review.

Technical summary

The official record identifies this issue as CWE-918 (SSRF). In Apache OFBiz versions before 24.09.06, Content component operations can be used in a way that causes the server to make requests on an attacker’s behalf. The supplied corpus does not provide additional implementation details, so defensive guidance should focus on version remediation and review of any server-side request paths exposed through the Content component.

Defensive priority

High. SSRF issues can be used to make trusted servers reach unintended destinations, so affected OFBiz deployments should be upgraded promptly, especially where the application has network access to internal services or sensitive endpoints.

Recommended defensive actions

• Upgrade Apache OFBiz to version 24.09.06 or later.
• Identify any deployments running Apache OFBiz before 24.09.06 and prioritize them for remediation.
• Review Content component operations for unintended server-side outbound request behavior.
• Restrict network egress from OFBiz where feasible to reduce SSRF impact.
• Validate that monitoring and logging can detect unusual outbound requests originating from the application server.

Evidence notes

The NVD record for CVE-2026-29226 lists the vulnerability as received on 2026-05-19 and references an Apache Security mailing list post. The supplied description states that Apache OFBiz before 24.09.06 is affected and that upgrading to 24.09.06 fixes the issue. The NVD metadata also records CWE-918 as the weakness classification.
