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 is affected by an Incorrect Authorization vulnerability that could lead to arbitrary file system read. A high-privileged attacker could exploit this vulnerability to access sensitive files and directories outside the intended access scope. Exploitation of this issue does not require user interaction. 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 · moderate confidence

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 Adobe Commerce version
    Run command: php bin/magento --version or check composer.json for "magento/product-community-edition" version
    Affected if Installed version equals 2.4.4, 2.4.5, 2.4.6, 2.4.7, 2.4.8, or 2.4.9
  2. Identify Adobe Commerce B2b version
    Run command: composer show magento/module-b2b 2>/dev/null or check composer.json for "magento/module-b2b" version
    Affected if B2b module is installed and version equals 1.3.3, 1.3.4, 1.4.2, 1.5.2, or 1.5.3
  3. Identify Adobe Magento version
    Run command: php bin/magento --version or check composer.json for "magento/product-magento-base" version if using Magento rather than Commerce
    Affected if Installed version equals 2.4.6, 2.4.7, 2.4.8, or 2.4.9 (Magento only)
  4. Identify Adobe I/O Events version
    Run command: composer show magento/module-io-events 2>/dev/null or check composer.json for "magento/module-io-events" version
    Affected if I/O Events module is installed and version is 1.6.0 through 1.20.x (less than 1.21.0)
  5. Verify if B2b module is enabled
    Run: php bin/magento module:status | grep -i b2b or check app/etc/config.php for B2b module entry
    Affected if B2b module is enabled on affected Commerce versions (2.4.4-2.4.9)

You are affected if any Adobe Commerce, Commerce B2b, Magento, or I/O Events installation matches the specific version numbers listed, particularly with B2b module enabled.

Upgrade available Upgrade to 1.21.0 or later
Fixed in 1.21.0
Interim mitigation

Apply the official Adobe security patch for CVE-2026-47996 and ensure proper authorization checks are implemented and enforced across all data access points in the Commerce implementation.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence

Upgrade to the latest available Adobe Commerce 2.4.7-patch or 2.4.8-patch (e.g., 2.4.7-p5+/2.4.8-p1+) or the latest 2.4.9 release. For I/O Events, upgrade to >=1.21.0

  1. 1. Identify your current Adobe Commerce/Magento version by running: bin/magento --version
  2. 2. Backup your database and codebase before proceeding with any upgrade
  3. 3. For Adobe Commerce 2.4.7: Upgrade to the latest 2.4.7-patch version (e.g., 2.4.7-p5 or later) using Composer: composer require magento/product-community-edition=2.4.7-p5 --no-update followed by composer update
  4. 4. For Adobe Commerce 2.4.8: Upgrade to the latest 2.4.8-patch version (e.g., 2.4.8-p1 or later) using Composer: composer require magento/product-community-edition=2.4.8-p1 --no-update followed by composer update
  5. 5. For Adobe Commerce 2.4.9: Upgrade to the latest available patch version
  6. 6. For I/O Events: Upgrade to version 1.21.0 or later
  7. 7. Run setup upgrade: bin/magento setup:upgrade
  8. 8. Clear caches: bin/magento cache:flush
Caveat Standard Adobe Commerce upgrade risks apply - test thoroughly in staging first, as custom extensions may require compatibility updates with newer patch releases
