CVE-2022-24086: Adobe Commerce checkout improper input validation leads to remote code execution
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Now (action score 99/100)
- CISA has confirmed exploitation in the wild (Feb 15, 2022). Remediation deadline for US federal agencies: Mar 1, 2022.
- A ready-made attack module is public (Nuclei); exploiting it takes no special expertise.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 99.1% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 99.9% of all records.
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- According to CISA the attack is automatable: targets can be found by mass scanning.
- Fixed version: magento/community-edition (Packagist) 2.3.7-p3, 2.4.3-p2.
- Mentioned 2 times in Turkish national cyber security advisories (siberguvenlik.gov.tr).
Patch today or shut off access. Upgrade to magento/community-edition (Packagist) 2.3.7-p3, 2.4.3-p2 or later.
Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it
Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · CISA KEV · FIRST EPSS
Adobe Commerce versions 2.4.3-p1 (and earlier) and 2.3.7-p2 (and earlier) are affected by an improper input validation vulnerability during the checkout process. Exploitation of this issue does not require user interaction and could result in arbitrary code execution.
