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 installed Adobe Commerce or Magento versionCheck the composer.json file in the Magento root directory for the 'version' field, or run 'composer show magento/framework' to display the installed version.Affected if The installed version matches 2.4.6, 2.4.5-p2 or earlier, 2.4.4-p3 or earlier, or any 2.3.7 through 2.4.0 through 2.4.3 installation.
-
Confirm product type is Adobe CommerceReview the composer.json 'name' field - Adobe Commerce installations typically show 'magento/project-enterprise-edition' while open source shows 'magento/project-community-edition'.Affected if The product is Adobe Commerce (enterprise edition) and the version falls within the affected range.
-
Verify the patch state of the installationCheck if security patch SUPEE-10888 or the specific Adobe security patch for CVE-2023-29287 has been applied by reviewing the app/etc/applied.patches.list file.Affected if The applied.patches.list file does not contain the CVE-2023-29287 patch or equivalent security patch, and the base version is in the affected range.
-
Check for public-facing API or user data endpointsReview the storefront and API configurations to determine if endpoints that could leak user data are exposed, particularly those related to customer accounts or order information.Affected if The system exposes public endpoints that could potentially leak user data without authentication.
A user is affected if their Adobe Commerce or Magento installation version is 2.4.6 or earlier (specifically 2.4.5-p2 and earlier, 2.4.4-p3 and earlier, or 2.3.7 through 2.4.3) and the CVE-2023-29287 security patch has not been applied.

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.
dbcve · scopedApply the vendor security patch or upgrade to a patched version of Adobe Commerce (2.4.6-p1, 2.4.5-p3, or 2.4.4-p4 or later) following standard deployment procedures including staging verification and full functionality testing.
Adobe Commerce/Magento 2.4.7 (or latest 2.4.x release)
- Identify your current Adobe Commerce or Magento version using the admin panel or command line (bin/magento --version)
- If running Commerce 2.3.7, 2.4.0, 2.4.1, or 2.4.2: upgrade to Adobe Commerce 2.4.7 or later
- If running Magento 2.4.4 with patch level below p4: upgrade to at least 2.4.4-p4
- If running Magento 2.4.5 with patch level below p3: upgrade to at least 2.4.5-p3
- If running Magento 2.4.6 or earlier: upgrade to Adobe Commerce/Magento 2.4.7
