CVE-2019-7874
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 · uneditedA cross-site request forgery vulnerability exists in Magento 2.1 prior to 2.1.18, Magento 2.2 prior to 2.2.9, Magento 2.3 prior to 2.3.2. This can result in unintended deletion of user roles.
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 confidenceCross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in Magento 2.1 prior to 2.1.18, 2.2 prior to 2.2.9, and 2.3 prior to 2.3.2 allows remote attackers to trick authenticated administrators into unknowingly deleting user roles via crafted requests.

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 checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify the installed Magento 2 versionRun 'composer show magento/product-community-edition 2>/dev/null | grep version' or check the version in the admin panel under Stores > Configuration > Advanced > Admin > Admin Base URL, or inspect the composer.lock file for 'magento/product-community-edition'Affected if The version is less than 2.1.18, or between 2.2.0 and 2.2.8 inclusive, or between 2.3.0 and 2.3.1 inclusive
-
Confirm the exact version number from command lineRun 'php bin/magento --version' in the Magento root directoryAffected if The reported version falls within any of the affected ranges: >= 2.1.0 and < 2.1.18, >= 2.2.0 and < 2.2.9, or >= 2.3.0 and < 2.3.2
-
Verify admin panel accessibilityCheck if the Magento admin URL is reachable (default /admin or custom path configured in app/etc/env.php under 'backend' > 'frontName')Affected if The admin panel is exposed and the Magento version is in the affected ranges (CSRF requires an authenticated admin session to be exploited)
A user is affected if their installed Magento 2 version is 2.1.0-2.1.17, 2.2.0-2.2.8, or 2.3.0-2.3.1 and the admin panel is accessible to potential attackers who could trick authenticated administrators into triggering role deletion requests.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor data2.1.182.2.92.3.2
Apply the vendor security patch (SUPEE-10888 or equivalent) or upgrade Magento to version 2.1.18+, 2.2.9+, or 2.3.2+ to remediate the CSRF vulnerability.
