Sylius: Insufficient Verification of Data Authenticity
CVE-2026-100872 is a high-severity insufficient verification of data authenticity vulnerability in Sylius, 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. The record lists versions 2.1.16, 2.2.9 as the first without the flaw, so updating Sylius to one of those releases or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.22% 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
- Update Sylius to 2.1.16 or 2.2.9, whichever matches your release line, or a later version.
- Read the advisory on github.com for workarounds and exact fixed builds.
- Until you can update, restrict network access to the affected service so it is not reachable from untrusted networks.

Official description
Sylius versions before 2.1.16 and 2.2.9 fail to validate payment amounts during cart recalculation, allowing unauthenticated attackers to modify order totals after gateway transaction initiation. Attackers can pay a small amount, enlarge the order after gateway capture, and have the system mark the inflated order as fully paid while the gateway captured only the original amount.

The underlying weakness: Insufficient Verification of Data Authenticity
The product does not sufficiently verify the origin or authenticity of data, in a way that causes it to accept invalid data.
