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 3.2.5 and earlier are affected by a Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability that could lead to a security feature bypass. A low privileged attacker could exploit this vulnerability to send crafted requests from the vulnerable server to internal systems, which could result in the bypassing of security measures such as firewalls. 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 · high confidence

Adobe Commerce versions 3.2.5 and earlier contain a Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability that allows low-privileged attackers to craft requests from the vulnerable server to internal systems, potentially bypassing firewalls and other security controls. No user interaction is required for exploitation.

MitigationUpgrade Adobe Commerce to a patched version beyond 3.2.5. Additionally, implement strict network segmentation and outbound firewall rules to limit the server's ability to reach internal resources.

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. Locate the installed Adobe Commerce version
    Check the version file or admin panel. Common locations include the composer.json file in the project root, the app/etc/config.xml file, or the system configuration area in the admin dashboard under Stores > Configuration > Advanced > Admin > Admin Base URL.
    Affected if The displayed version number is lower than 3.2.6 or shows 3.2.5 or earlier.
  2. Identify if the product is Adobe Magento
    Determine if the installed product is Adobe Magento rather than Adobe Commerce, as both are affected. Check the composer.json package name or the config.xml for the product identifier.
    Affected if The product is Adobe Magento and the version is lower than 3.2.6.
  3. Confirm the exact version number
    Compare your installed version against the affected range. The vulnerability affects versions below 3.2.6, so versions 3.2.5, 3.2.4, 3.2.3, and earlier are all affected.
    Affected if The installed version is any release prior to 3.2.6.

You are affected if your Adobe Commerce or Adobe Magento installation shows a version number lower than 3.2.6.

  4. Put the site into maintenance mode using the magento maintenance:enable command
  5. Run the upgrade command specific to your installation method (e.g., composer require magento/product-community-edition=3.2.6 or using the setup wizard)
  6. Run composer update to apply the changes
  7. Clear the cache using bin/magento cache:clean and bin/magento cache:flush
