CVE-2025-24411 is an improper access control vulnerability (CWE-284) identified in multiple versions of Adobe Commerce, specifically versions 2.4.8-beta1, 2.4.7-p3, 2.4.6-p8, 2.4.5-p10, 2.4.4-p11, and earlier. The flaw allows a low-privileged attacker to bypass security controls designed to restrict access to sensitive functions or data. This bypass can lead to unauthorized access that compromises the confidentiality and integrity of the system and its data. The vulnerability does not require any user interaction, making it easier to exploit remotely over the network. The CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.1 reflects the high impact on confidentiality and integrity, with low attack complexity and no user interaction required. Although no public exploits have been reported yet, the nature of the vulnerability suggests that attackers could leverage it to escalate privileges or access sensitive business information within Adobe Commerce environments. Adobe Commerce is a widely used e-commerce platform, and improper access control issues can lead to data breaches, unauthorized transactions, or manipulation of commerce data. The vulnerability’s presence in multiple patched and unpatched versions indicates that many deployments remain at risk until updates are applied. The lack of a patch link in the provided data suggests that Adobe may be preparing or has recently released fixes, so organizations should monitor official channels closely.

The impact of CVE-2025-24411 on organizations worldwide is significant due to the widespread use of Adobe Commerce in e-commerce platforms. Successful exploitation can lead to unauthorized access to sensitive customer data, order information, and potentially payment details, severely impacting confidentiality. Integrity is also at risk, as attackers could manipulate commerce data, alter orders, or disrupt business logic. Although availability is not directly affected, the breach of confidentiality and integrity can lead to reputational damage, regulatory penalties (e.g., GDPR, PCI DSS violations), and financial losses. Attackers with low privileges can escalate their access, increasing the threat surface. Organizations relying on Adobe Commerce for online sales, especially those handling large volumes of transactions or sensitive customer information, face heightened risks. The threat is particularly acute for businesses that have not applied recent security updates or rely on default or weak access controls. Given the lack of required user interaction, automated exploitation attempts could increase rapidly once exploit code becomes available, amplifying the risk of widespread compromise.

Organizations should immediately inventory their Adobe Commerce deployments to identify affected versions. They should prioritize applying official patches from Adobe as soon as they are released. Until patches are available, implement network-level restrictions to limit access to Adobe Commerce administrative interfaces and APIs to trusted IP addresses only. Employ strict role-based access controls (RBAC) within Adobe Commerce to minimize privileges granted to users and services. Monitor logs and audit trails for unusual access patterns or privilege escalations. Use web application firewalls (WAFs) with updated signatures to detect and block exploitation attempts targeting this vulnerability. Conduct regular security assessments and penetration testing focused on access control mechanisms. Educate administrators about the risks of improper access control and enforce strong authentication methods, such as multi-factor authentication (MFA), to reduce the risk of credential compromise. Finally, maintain an incident response plan that includes procedures for handling potential breaches resulting from this vulnerability.
