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 · unedited
Adobe Commerce versions 2.4.7-p2, 2.4.6-p7, 2.4.5-p9, 2.4.4-p10 and earlier are affected by an Improper Authorization vulnerability that could result in a Security feature bypass. A low-privileged attacker could leverage this vulnerability to bypass security measures and have a low impact on confidentiality and integrity. Exploitation of this issue does not require user interaction.

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 · moderate confidence

Adobe Commerce contains an Improper Authorization vulnerability allowing low-privileged attackers to bypass security features. The vulnerability affects versions 2.4.4-p10 and earlier through 2.4.7-p2, enabling unauthorized access to security mechanisms without user interaction.

MitigationApply the vendor-supplied patches or upgrade to Adobe Commerce versions 2.4.4-p11, 2.4.5-p10, 2.4.6-p8, or 2.4.7-p3 or later. Verify that authorization controls function correctly after applying the update.

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 checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify installed Adobe Commerce or Magento version
    Run the command 'php bin/magento --version' from the Magento root directory, or check the composer.json file for the 'magento/product-community-edition' or 'magento/product-enterprise-edition' version entry, or view the version displayed in the admin panel footer.
    Affected if The displayed version is 2.4.4-p10 or earlier, or any version from 2.4.0 through 2.4.7-p2 (for example, 2.4.5, 2.4.6-p5, 2.4.7-p1).
  2. Confirm the version is within the affected range
    Compare your installed version against the known affected releases: 2.3.7, 2.4.0, 2.4.1, 2.4.2, 2.4.3, 2.4.4 (all patch levels up to p10), 2.4.5, 2.4.6 (all patch levels up to p8), and 2.4.7 (patch levels p0 through p2).
    Affected if Your version matches any of these affected versions or falls within these ranges.
  3. Check if Adobe Commerce B2b module is installed
    Run 'php bin/magento module:status' to list enabled modules, or check the composer.json for 'magento/module-b2b', or look in app/etc/config.php for the B2b module entry.
    Affected if Adobe Commerce B2b is installed and its version is 1.3.3, 1.3.4, 1.3.5, or 1.4.2.
  4. Verify the vulnerability is present by confirming security configuration exposure
    Review the authorization configuration files in the 'etc' directory of your custom modules or the core 'authorization' configuration to confirm whether role-based access controls can be bypassed by low-privileged users. This check requires understanding which security endpoints are accessible without proper elevation.
    Affected if Low-privileged users (with limited admin roles) can access security-sensitive functions or administrative features that should require higher privileges.

You are affected if your Adobe Commerce or Magento installation runs version 2.4.4-p10 or earlier through 2.4.7-p2, or if the B2b module is at version 1.3.3, 1.3.4, 1.3.5, or 1.4.2.

Mitigation available No clean upgrade yet — mitigate in the meantime
Mitigation

Apply the vendor-supplied patches or upgrade to Adobe Commerce versions 2.4.4-p11, 2.4.5-p10, 2.4.6-p8, or 2.4.7-p3 or later. Verify that authorization controls function correctly after applying the update.

Recommended fix High confidence

Adobe Commerce 2.4.7-p3 (or latest 2.4.7 patch); alternatively upgrade to 2.4.6-p7+ or 2.4.5-p9+ or 2.4.4-p10+ depending on current version

  1. 1. Identify the current Adobe Commerce/Magento version installed (e.g., 2.4.5-p8, 2.4.6-p6, etc.)
  2. 2. Determine the appropriate upgrade path based on current version and infrastructure
  3. 3. Create a full backup of the database and files before proceeding
  4. 4. Test the upgrade in a staging environment that mirrors production
  5. 5. For Commerce 2.4.4.x: upgrade to 2.4.4-p10 or later (recommended: 2.4.7-p3 or latest available)
  6. 6. For Commerce 2.4.5.x: upgrade to 2.4.5-p9 or later (recommended: 2.4.7-p3 or latest available)
  7. 7. For Commerce 2.4.6.x: upgrade to 2.4.6-p7 or later (recommended: 2.4.7-p3 or latest available)
  8. 8. For Commerce 2.4.7.x: upgrade to 2.4.7-p3 or later
Caveat Major version upgrades (e.g., 2.3 to 2.4) may have breaking changes; patch upgrades within same minor version typically safe but review release notes for custom extension incompatibilities
