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.
-
Determine installed Adobe Commerce versionRun the command 'php bin/magento --version' from the Magento root directory, or inspect the composer.json file for the 'version' field under 'require' for 'magento/product-community-edition' or 'magento/product-enterprise-edition'Affected if The version matches 2.4.4, 2.4.5, 2.4.6, 2.4.7, 2.4.8, or 2.4.9
-
Determine installed Adobe Commerce B2B versionCheck composer.json for 'magento/module-b2b' version, or run 'php bin/magento module:status | grep -i b2b' to confirm B2B module installationAffected if The B2B module version is 1.3.3, 1.3.4, 1.3.5, 1.4.2, 1.5.2, or 1.5.3
-
Determine installed Adobe Magento versionCheck composer.json for 'magento/product-community-edition' or 'magento/product-enterprise-edition' version numberAffected if The version is 2.4.6, 2.4.7, 2.4.8, or 2.4.9

Verify vulnerability applicabilityThis is an authorization bypass that affects low-privileged attacker access without user interaction. The vulnerability exists in the affected versions listed regardless of specific configuration, as it stems from missing or improper authorization checks in the application codeAffected if Your installed version of Adobe Commerce, Adobe Commerce B2B, or Adobe Magento matches any of the affected versions listed
If your Adobe Commerce, Adobe Commerce B2B, or Adobe Magento installation version matches any of the affected versions (2.4.4-2.4.9 for Commerce, specific B2B versions, or 2.4.6-2.4.9 for Magento), your environment is affected by this authorization bypass vulnerability.
