EPSS Exploitation Probability
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) is a daily probability model maintained by FIRST.org. It estimates the likelihood a CVE will be exploited in production environments within the next 30 days, derived from real-world threat intelligence signals.
How urgent is this, really
CVE-2024-21665 plotted by exploitation likelihood (EPSS) against impact (CVSS). The shaded corner — EPSS 50%+ and CVSS 7.0+ — is where this CVE doesn't sit, though severity or exploitability alone can still warrant action.
Where this sits among everything scored
Of 377,636 CVEs with a current EPSS score, this one falls in the < 10% band (highlighted). Real counts from FIRST.org, not a sample — log-scaled since the landscape is heavily right-skewed.

Description
Summary
An authenticated and unauthorized user can access the back-office orders list and be able to query over the information returned.
Details
Permissions do not seem to be enforced when reaching the admin/ecommerceframework/admin-order/list endpoint allowing an authenticated user without the permissions to access the endpoint and query the data available there. It seems that the access control is not enforced in this place :
Note : Testing this vulnerability requires a fully configured ecommerce website, but it looks vulnerable as when requesting the endpoint the data seem returned (and when looking at the source code nothing seems to validate the permissions on the specified endpoint).
PoC
In order to reproduce the issue, the following steps can be followed :
- As an administrator : a. Create a role without any permission through Settings → User & Roles → Roles in the administration panel b. Create an user through Settings → User & Roles → Users and assign it the unprivileged role previously created
- Log out the current administrator and log in with this new user
- Access to the following endpoint
https://pimcore_instance/admin/ecommerceframework/admin-order/listand the results will be returned to this unauthorized user
Impact
An unauthorized user can access back-office orders without being authorized to.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for pimcore/ecommerce-framework-bundle, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Fix
Update pimcore/ecommerce-framework-bundle to 1.0.10 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2024-21665 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
Workarounds
If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.
How O3 protects you
O3 Security's impact-aware SCA analyses which vulnerable code paths your application actually calls, so a match like CVE-2024-21665 can be triaged on real exposure rather than presence alone.
Tailored to CVE-2024-21665. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is CVE-2024-21665 in your dependencies?
O3 Security finds CVE-2024-21665 across Packagist dependencies, including transitive ones, and its impact-aware SCA ranks findings by whether your code actually calls the vulnerable path.
