CVE-2024-22407
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 · uneditedShopware is an open headless commerce platform. In the Shopware CMS, the state handler for orders fails to sufficiently verify user authorizations for actions that modify the payment, delivery, and/or order status. Due to this inadequate implementation, users lacking 'write' permissions for orders are still able to change the order state. This issue has been addressed and users are advised to update to Shopware 6.5.7.4. For older versions of 6.1, 6.2, 6.3 and 6.4 corresponding security measures are also available via a plugin. For the full range of functions, we recommend updating to the latest Shopware version.
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 confidenceShopware CMS contains a broken access control vulnerability in the order state handler where authorization checks are insufficiently enforced. Users lacking explicit 'write' permissions for orders can still modify payment, delivery, and order status states, allowing privilege escalation beyond assigned permissions.

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 Shopware installation and versionCheck the Shopware installation directory for the version file or run a command to retrieve the installed Shopware version (such as checking composer.json, a version endpoint, or the admin panel about section)Affected if The installed version is less than 6.5.7.4 (e.g., 6.5.x before 6.5.7.4, or any 6.1-6.4 version)
-
Verify order permission configurationAccess the Shopware admin panel and navigate to the user/role management section. Examine the permissions assigned to user roles, specifically looking for 'Order' permissionsAffected if Any user role exists that lacks explicit 'write' permission for orders but is expected to have limited or no order modification rights
-
Check order state handler accessibilityIn the admin panel, locate the order management module and attempt to access or view order state modification controls (payment status, delivery status, order status) using a test account with limited permissionsAffected if Users without explicit order 'write' permissions can access and modify order state fields
-
Review privilege escalation potentialUsing a low-privilege user account (one without order 'write' permissions), attempt to modify the payment status, delivery status, or order status of an existing order through the admin interface or APIAffected if The modification succeeds or is permitted when it should be denied based on the user's permission level
A Shopware instance is affected if it runs version 6.5.7.4 or lower AND has users with limited order permissions who can still modify order states, allowing privilege escalation beyond their assigned role permissions.

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 · scoped6.5.7.4
Update Shopware to version 6.5.7.4 or later. For affected 6.1-6.4 versions, apply the corresponding security plugin or upgrade to a supported version.
Shopware 6.5.7.4
- 1. Back up your current Shopware installation and database
- 2. Update Shopware to version 6.5.7.4 or later
- 3. Verify the update was successful by checking the Shopware admin panel version number
- 4. Test that the order state modification now properly enforces write permissions
