Adobe Commerce versions 2.4.9-beta1, 2.4.8-p4, 2.4.7-p9, 2.4.6-p14, 2.4.5-p16, 2.4.4-p17 and earlier are affected by an Uncontrolled Resource Consumption vulnerability that could lead to application denial-of-service. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to exhaust system resources, resulting in an application denial-of-service condition. Exploitation of this issue does not require user interaction.
AnalysisAI
Application denial-of-service in Adobe Commerce (Magento) affects versions 2.4.9-beta1, 2.4.8-p4, 2.4.7-p9, 2.4.6-p14, 2.4.5-p16, 2.4.4-p17 and earlier, where an Uncontrolled Resource Consumption flaw (CWE-400) lets a remote, unauthenticated attacker exhaust server resources without any user interaction. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/A:H) reflects a high availability impact with no confidentiality or integrity loss. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the EPSS score is very low (0.01%, 2nd percentile), indicating minimal observed exploitation interest despite the network-reachable attack surface.
Technical ContextAI
Adobe Commerce is Adobe's enterprise e-commerce platform built on the Magento codebase, typically deployed as an internet-facing PHP web application backed by MySQL/MariaDB, Redis, and OpenSearch/Elasticsearch. The root cause is CWE-400 (Uncontrolled Resource Consumption), a class of flaw where the application fails to bound the CPU, memory, connection, or processing work triggered by a request, allowing a small number of crafted requests to drive resource usage disproportionately high. The affected CPE is cpe:2.3:a:adobe:adobe_commerce, and because the impact is limited to availability (A:H, C:N, I:N), the flaw causes service exhaustion rather than data disclosure or code execution.
RemediationAI
Upgrade to the fixed Adobe Commerce release documented in Adobe security bulletin APSB26-49 (https://helpx.adobe.com/security/products/magento/apsb26-49.html), which supersedes the listed vulnerable patch levels (2.4.8-p4, 2.4.7-p9, 2.4.6-p14, 2.4.5-p16, 2.4.4-p17 and earlier); apply the corresponding cumulative patch or dot-release for your branch since the input does not specify a single fixed version string. As compensating controls until patched, place the storefront behind a WAF or CDN (Adobe's Fastly integration, Cloudflare, or AWS WAF) with rate limiting on the specific request paths to cap request volume per client, and enforce connection and request-body limits at the reverse proxy or web server (nginx limit_req/limit_conn or PHP-FPM process caps) to contain resource exhaustion - noting that aggressive rate limits can throttle legitimate high-traffic promotions or crawler traffic. Monitor CPU, memory, and PHP-FPM/worker saturation to detect exploitation attempts early.
