# CVE-2025-24434: Improper Authorization vulnerability in Magento and Adobe Commerce

**Signal:** High exploit likelihood. EPSS ranks it in the top 5% of all CVEs for likely exploitation in the next 30 days. (Computed from CISA KEV, EPSS and CVSS; not an editorial verdict.)

## Should you act?

- No confirmed exploitation. It is not in CISA’s KEV catalog and CISA’s SSVC assessment records no known exploitation. That can change quickly after a public write-up; re-check if you are affected.
- EPSS 17.2% , percentile 97: FIRST’s model estimates a 17.2% chance of exploitation activity in the next 30 days, higher than 97% of all scored CVEs (very high). EPSS is a probability, not a verdict.
- Remotely reachable with no login and no user interaction. If the vulnerable service is exposed to the internet, prioritize it.
- Only applies if your dependency tree includes magento/community-edition (Composer (PHP)) >= 2.4.8-beta1, < 2.4.8-beta2, fixed in 2.4.8-beta2 ; magento/community-edition (Composer (PHP)) >= 2.4.7-beta1, < 2.4.7-p4, fixed in 2.4.7-p4 ; magento/community-edition (Composer (PHP)) >= 2.4.6-p1, < 2.4.6-p9, fixed in 2.4.6-p9 ; magento/community-edition (Composer (PHP)) >= 2.4.5-p1, < 2.4.5-p11, fixed in 2.4.5-p11 . Check your lockfile, including transitive dependencies.

## What it is

Adobe Commerce versions 2.4.8-beta1, 2.4.7-p3, 2.4.6-p8, 2.4.5-p10, 2.4.4-p11 and earlier are affected by an Incorrect Authorization vulnerability that could result in Privilege escalation. An attacker could leverage this vulnerability to bypass security measures and gain unauthorized access. Exploitation of this issue does not require user interaction. A successful attacker can abuse this to achieve session takeover, increasing the confidentiality and integrity impact as high.

## Affected packages

- Composer (PHP) `magento/community-edition` >= 2.4.8-beta1, < 2.4.8-beta2 → fixed: 2.4.8-beta2
- Composer (PHP) `magento/community-edition` >= 2.4.7-beta1, < 2.4.7-p4 → fixed: 2.4.7-p4
- Composer (PHP) `magento/community-edition` >= 2.4.6-p1, < 2.4.6-p9 → fixed: 2.4.6-p9
- Composer (PHP) `magento/community-edition` >= 2.4.5-p1, < 2.4.5-p11 → fixed: 2.4.5-p11
- Composer (PHP) `magento/community-edition` < 2.4.4-p12 → fixed: 2.4.4-p12
- Composer (PHP) `magento/project-community-edition` <= 2.0.2 → fixed: none listed

## Affected products (CVE record)

- Adobe Adobe Commerce: <= 2.4.8-beta1

- GitHub CVSS 3.1: 9.1 `CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N`

## Exploitation

- CISA KEV: not listed (no confirmed in-the-wild exploitation known to CISA).
- CISA SSVC assessment: exploitation none , automatable yes , technical impact total .
- FIRST EPSS (model of 2026-10-21): 17.19% probability of exploitation activity in the next 30 days; percentile 97.
