platform: Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource
CVE-2022-24872 is a high-severity incorrect permission assignment for critical resource vulnerability in platform from Shopware, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.1 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an attacker with a low-privileged account, without any action from a user. Affected platform versions: < 6.4.10.1. The record does not name a fixed version, so check the vendor advisory. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 1.05% chance of exploitation within 30 days, higher than 65% of scored CVEs.
High severity with no evidence of exploitation so far.
What to do
- Update Shopware to 6.4.10.1 or a later version.
- Read the advisory on docs.shopware.com for workarounds and exact fixed builds.

Official description
Shopware is an open commerce platform based on Symfony Framework and Vue. Permissions set to sales channel context by admin-api are still usable within normal user session. Users are advised to update to the current version 6.4.10.1. For older versions of 6.1, 6.2, and 6.3, corresponding security measures are also available via a plugin. There are no known workarounds for this issue.

The underlying weakness: Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource
The product specifies permissions for a security-critical resource in a way that allows that resource to be read or modified by unintended actors.
How developers prevent this class of flaw
- When using a critical resource such as a configuration file, check to see if the resource has insecure permissions (such as being modifiable by any regular user), and generate an error or even exit the software if there is a possibility that the resource could have been modified by an unauthorized party.
- Divide the software into anonymous, normal, privileged, and administrative areas. Reduce the attack surface by carefully defining distinct user groups, privileges, and/or roles. Map these against data, functionality, and the related resources. Then set the permissions accordingly. This will allow you to maintain more fine-grained control over your resources.
- During program startup, explicitly set the default permissions or umask to the most restrictive setting possible. Also set the appropriate permissions during program installation. This will prevent you from inheriting insecure permissions from any user who installs or runs the program.
