- 2Direct requestRequests restricted store pages directly
- 3Missing checkCommerce Core skips authorization
- 4Store dataOrders and records are exposed
- ResultAttacker reads or alters store data
What happened
Drupal Commerce Core (drupal/commerce) has a missing authorization flaw that allows forceful browsing, meaning users can access restricted resources directly without proper permission checks.
Why it is dangerous: Attackers can view or manipulate orders and other store data on affected shops, and store owners and their customers are at risk.
Are you affected?
You are affected if your Drupal site runs Commerce Core 2.40 or earlier (from 0.0.0 to 2.41 exclusive of 2.41.0), or 3.0.0 through 3.3.12.
