Shopware: Admin Account Takeover via User Recovery Hash Exposure

CVE-2026-48009GHSA-8v9p-g828-v98f

What to do

Vendor fix available. Upgrade each affected package to the fixed version on its release line (shopware/core 6.7.10.1, 6.6.10.18; shopware/platform 6.7.10.1, 6.6.10.18), redeploy, then verify what is actually installed.

This page has no inventory attached, so it cannot say whether you are affected. A vendor fix is not proof that your deployment is fixed.

Source description

As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.

Summary A low-privilege admin user with userrecovery:read ACL can take over any admin account. The attacker triggers password recovery for the victim (unauthenticated endpoint), reads the recovery hash from the Admin API search endpoint, then uses the hash to reset the victim's password (another unauthenticated endpoint). The recovery hash — intended to be secret and delivered only via email — is fully readable through the standard entity search API. OWASP: A01:2021 — Broken Access Control Root Cause The userrecovery entity exposes its hash field through the Admin API search endpoint (POST /api/search/user-recovery). The hash field lacks ApiAware(false) or ReadProtection, so any user with userrecovery:read ACL can read it. The password recovery flow assumes the hash is delivered exclusively via email. The Admin API provides an alternative channel to obtain it, breaking this assumption. Three endpoints combine to form the attack: 1. POST /api/action/user/user-recovery — triggers…

# Patch Next advisory brief: CVE-2026-48009

Advisory: Shopware: Admin Account Takeover via User Recovery Hash Exposure
IDs: CVE-2026-48009, GHSA-8v9p-g828-v98f
Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2026-48009 (revision 1, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 14:48 UTC)
Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected.
Severity: Medium (CVSS 6.8)
Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV.
Vendor response: Vendor fix available; fixed versions by package: shopware/core 6.7.10.1, 6.6.10.18; shopware/platform 6.7.10.1, 6.6.10.18. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed.

## Affected components
- Packagist shopware/core: affected >= 6.7.0.0, < 6.7.10.1; < 6.6.10.18; fixed in 6.7.10.1, 6.6.10.18
- Packagist shopware/platform: affected >= 6.7.0.0, < 6.7.10.1; < 6.6.10.18; fixed in 6.7.10.1, 6.6.10.18

## Suggested inspection (read-only)
- Packagist shopware/core: check the installed version with your package manager.
- Packagist shopware/platform: check the installed version with your package manager.

## Supported action
Upgrade each affected component to a fixed version on its release line. For a transitive dependency, upgrade the parent package or add an override or constraint, then regenerate the lockfile. Redeploy every environment that ran an affected version.

## Required regression checks
- Run the test suite and a production build.
- Exercise the features that depend on shopware/core, shopware/platform.
- Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed.

## Rollback considerations
- Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward.

## Unresolved questions
- Which deployments run an affected version?
- Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority.
- Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production.
