shopware: Cross-Site Request Forgery

CVE-2022-24879 is a high-severity cross-site request forgery vulnerability in shopware, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.5 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an unauthenticated attacker, without any action from a user. Affected shopware versions: >= 5.2.0, < 5.7.9. The record does not name a fixed version, so check the vendor advisory. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.6% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.

High severity with no evidence of exploitation so far.

What to do

  1. Check which version of shopware you run against the affected versions below, and install the vendor's latest release.
  2. Read the advisory on docs.shopware.com for workarounds and exact fixed builds.
  3. Until you can update, restrict network access to the affected service so it is not reachable from untrusted networks.

Official description

Shopware is an open source e-commerce software platform. Versions prior to 5.7.9 are vulnerable to malfunction of cross-site request forgery (CSRF) token validation. Under certain circumstances, the CSRF tokens were not generated anew and not validated correctly. This issue is fixed in version 5.7.9. Users of older versions may attempt to mitigate the vulnerability by using the Shopware security plugin.

The underlying weakness: Cross-Site Request Forgery

The web application does not, or cannot, sufficiently verify whether a request was intentionally provided by the user who sent the request, which could have originated from an unauthorized actor.

How developers prevent this class of flaw

  • Use a vetted library or framework that does not allow this weakness to occur or provides constructs that make this weakness easier to avoid. For example, use anti-CSRF packages such as the OWASP CSRFGuard. Another example is the ESAPI Session Management control, which includes a component for CSRF.
  • Ensure that the application is free of cross-site scripting issues (CWE-79), because most CSRF defenses can be bypassed using attacker-controlled script.
  • Generate a unique nonce for each form, place the nonce into the form, and verify the nonce upon receipt of the form. Be sure that the nonce is not predictable (CWE-330).
