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

GHSA-6955-hrm5-c4qp 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 377,166 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

Impact

An authorization bypass vulnerability exists in the shop account API. The PATCH /api/v2/shop/account/orders/{tokenValue}/payments/{paymentId} endpoint, used by an authenticated shop customer to change the payment method of an order that has been placed but not yet paid (state STATE_NEW), does not validate that the chosen payment method is enabled for the order's channel. The equivalent checkout endpoint (PATCH /api/v2/shop/orders/{tokenValue}/payments/{paymentId}) correctly rejects out-of-channel payment methods with HTTP 422; the account endpoint silently accepts them and returns HTTP 200.

An authenticated customer can therefore assign any globally enabled payment method to their own placed order, including methods that the store operator has explicitly excluded from that channel.

Patches

The issue is fixed in versions: 2.0.18, 2.1.15, 2.2.6 and above.

Workarounds

If users cannot bump Sylius right now, decorate the Sylius\Bundle\ApiBundle\Changer\PaymentMethodChangerInterface service in their applications.

Step 1. Create the decorator

src/Decorator/ChannelCheckingPaymentMethodChanger.php:

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

namespace App\Decorator;

use ApiPlatform\Validator\Exception\ValidationException;
use Sylius\Bundle\ApiBundle\Changer\PaymentMethodChangerInterface;
use Sylius\Component\Core\Model\OrderInterface;
use Sylius\Component\Core\Model\PaymentMethodInterface;
use Sylius\Component\Core\Repository\PaymentMethodRepositoryInterface;
use Sylius\Component\Core\Repository\PaymentRepositoryInterface;
use Sylius\Component\Payment\Resolver\PaymentMethodsResolverInterface;
use Symfony\Component\Validator\ConstraintViolation;
use Symfony\Component\Validator\ConstraintViolationList;
use Symfony\Contracts\Translation\TranslatorInterface;

final readonly class ChannelCheckingPaymentMethodChanger implements PaymentMethodChangerInterface
{
    public function __construct(
        private PaymentMethodChangerInterface $decorated,
        private PaymentRepositoryInterface $paymentRepository,
        private PaymentMethodRepositoryInterface $paymentMethodRepository,
        private PaymentMethodsResolverInterface $paymentMethodsResolver,
        private TranslatorInterface $translator,
    ) {
    }

    public function changePaymentMethod(string $paymentMethodCode, mixed $paymentId, OrderInterface $order): OrderInterface
    {
        /** @var PaymentMethodInterface|null $paymentMethod */
        $paymentMethod = $this->paymentMethodRepository->findOneBy(['code' => $paymentMethodCode]);
        $payment = $this->paymentRepository->findOneByOrderId($paymentId, $order->getId());

        if (
            $paymentMethod !== null
            && $payment !== null
            && !in_array($paymentMethod, $this->paymentMethodsResolver->getSupportedMethods($payment), true)
        ) {
            $template = 'sylius.payment_method.not_available';
            $parameters = ['%name%' => (string) $paymentMethod->getName()];

            throw new ValidationException(new ConstraintViolationList([
                new ConstraintViolation(
                    message: $this->translator->trans($template, $parameters, 'validators'),
                    messageTemplate: $template,
                    parameters: $parameters,
                    root: $paymentMethodCode,
                    propertyPath: '',
                    invalidValue: $paymentMethodCode,
                ),
            ]));
        }

        return $this->decorated->changePaymentMethod($paymentMethodCode, $paymentId, $order);
    }
}

Step 2. Register the decorator

config/services.yaml (append to the application's existing services: block):

services:
    App\Decorator\ChannelCheckingPaymentMethodChanger:
        decorates: sylius_api.changer.payment_method
        arguments:
            - '@.inner'
            - '@sylius.repository.payment'
            - '@sylius.repository.payment_method'
            - '@sylius.resolver.payment_methods'
            - '@translator'

@.inner references the original PaymentMethodChangerInterface implementation, so any future Sylius change to the changer keeps working through the decorator.

Step 3. Clear the cache

bin/console cache:clear

Detection & mitigation playbook

Open-source dependency
  1. Detect

    Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for sylius/sylius, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.

  2. Fix

    Update sylius/sylius to 2.0.18 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-6955-hrm5-c4qp is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

  3. 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.

  4. How O3 protects you

    O3 Security's impact-aware SCA analyses which vulnerable code paths your application actually calls, so a match like GHSA-6955-hrm5-c4qp can be triaged on real exposure rather than presence alone.

Tailored to GHSA-6955-hrm5-c4qp. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
