Adobe Commerce is affected by an Incorrect Authorization vulnerability that could result in privilege escalation. An attacker could leverage this vulnerability to gain elevated access to sensitive resources. Exploitation of this issue does not require user interaction.

AnalysisAI
Privilege escalation in Adobe Commerce and Magento Open Source (including Adobe Commerce B2B) lets a remote attacker gain elevated access to sensitive resources through an incorrect authorization flaw, with no user interaction required. All supported branches from 2.4.4 through 2.4.9 (and B2B 1.3.3-1.5.3) prior to the August 2026 patch set are affected, and the CVSS 9.1 rating reflects high confidentiality and integrity impact. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV, but as an unauthenticated, low-complexity authorization bypass in a widely deployed storefront platform it warrants urgent patching.
Technical ContextAI
The affected software is Adobe Commerce (formerly Magento Commerce) and its open-source counterpart Magento Open Source, a PHP-based e-commerce platform, along with the Adobe Commerce B2B extension module. The root cause is CWE-863 (Incorrect Authorization): the application performs an authorization check but implements it incorrectly, so an access-control decision that should deny a request instead permits it. In a Magento context this typically maps to a REST/GraphQL API endpoint, admin/customer resource, or ACL-gated action whose permission logic can be reached or satisfied by a principal that should not qualify, allowing access to resources beyond the attacker's intended privilege level.
RemediationAI
Vendor-released patch: upgrade to the August 2026 fixed builds - Adobe Commerce 2.4.9-2026-aug, 2.4.8-2026-aug, 2.4.7-2026-aug, 2.4.6-2026-aug, 2.4.5-2026-aug, or 2.4.4-2026-aug; Magento Open Source 2.4.9-2026-aug, 2.4.8-2026-aug, 2.4.7-2026-aug, or 2.4.6-2026-aug; and Adobe Commerce B2B 1.5.3-2026-aug, 1.5.2-2026-aug, 1.4.2-2026-aug, 1.3.4-2026-aug, or 1.3.3-2026-aug, as directed by Adobe advisory APSB26-92 (https://helpx.adobe.com/security/products/magento/apsb26-92.html). Because this is an unauthenticated authorization bypass and no specific vulnerable feature was disclosed, there is no reliable feature-level workaround; until the patch is applied, compensating controls include restricting access to the admin panel and REST/GraphQL API endpoints via IP allowlisting or a WAF, placing the storefront admin behind VPN or network ACLs, and monitoring for anomalous privileged actions - with the trade-off that WAF rules cannot be precisely tuned without endpoint details and IP restrictions may disrupt legitimate integrations or headless frontends.
