CVE-2024-39399
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 · uneditedAdobe Commerce versions 2.4.7-p1, 2.4.6-p6, 2.4.5-p8, 2.4.4-p9 and earlier are affected by an Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') vulnerability that could lead to arbitrary file system read. A low-privileged attacker could exploit this vulnerability to gain access to files and directories that are outside the restricted directory. Exploitation of this issue does not require user interaction and scope is changed.
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 confidenceAdobe Commerce contains a path traversal vulnerability allowing low-privileged attackers to read arbitrary files outside the restricted directory through improper pathname limitation. The vulnerability can be exploited without user interaction and affects multiple versions (2.4.4-p9 through 2.4.7-p1 and earlier).

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 Adobe Commerce or Magento versionRun the command: php bin/magento --version or check the composer.json file in the web root for the 'version' fieldAffected if Version is not visible or cannot be determined
-
Compare the installed version against affected rangesCheck if the version is <= 2.4.3, or equals 2.4.4, 2.4.5, 2.4.6, or 2.4.7. Also verify if the patch level is below p10 for 2.4.4, p9 for 2.4.5, p7 for 2.4.6, or p2 for 2.4.7Affected if Version falls within the affected list and patch level is below the fixed versions (2.4.4-p10, 2.4.5-p9, 2.4.6-p7, 2.4.7-p2 or later)
-
Confirm the product is Adobe Commerce or Magento Open SourceCheck the admin panel footer or run: php bin/magento about to identify the exact product editionAffected if Product is Adobe Commerce or Magento Open Source (formerly Magento)
A system is affected if it runs Adobe Commerce or Magento Open Source version 2.4.4 through 2.4.7 (or 2.4.3 and earlier) without the vendor-supplied patch or upgrade to version 2.4.4-p10, 2.4.5-p9, 2.4.6-p7, or 2.4.7-p2 or later.

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-supplied patch or upgrade to a patched version (2.4.7-p2, 2.4.6-p7, 2.4.5-p9, or 2.4.4-p10 or later) to remediate the path traversal vulnerability.
Upgrade to Adobe Commerce/Magento 2.4.4-p10+, 2.4.5-p9+, 2.4.6-p7+, or 2.4.7-p2+
- 1. Identify your current Adobe Commerce/Magento version by running: bin/magento --version
- 2. For Magento/OpenSource users: Upgrade to version 2.4.4-p10 or later (if on 2.4.4.x), or 2.4.5-p9 or later (if on 2.4.5.x), or 2.4.6-p7 or later (if on 2.4.6.x), or 2.4.7-p2 or later (if on 2.4.7.x)
- 3. For Adobe Commerce (Cloud or On-Premise) users: Upgrade to the same patch versions as above, or request the security patch from Adobe
- 4. Run composer require magento/product-community-edition=<version> --no-update (replace <version> with the target version from step 2)
- 5. Run composer update to install the new version
- 6. Clear the cache: bin/magento cache:flush
- 7. Re-index if necessary: bin/magento indexer:reindex
- 8. Verify the upgrade was successful: bin/magento --version
