Technical details

A vertical authorization bypass exists in Shopware's Admin API within the OrderActionController. The endpoints for order state transitions (e.g., /api/_action/order/{orderId}/state/{transition}) fail to declare the PlatformRequest::ATTRIBUTE_ACL attribute or perform explicit privilege checks. Because the AclAnnotationValidator exits early when ACL metadata is missing, the backend processes these requests even if the user lacks 'order:update' or related permissions. Furthermore, because the StateMachineRegistry executes transitions within SYSTEM_SCOPE, the underlying database writes bypass standard entity-level security once the controller layer is breached. Attackers with low-privileged API access can manipulate order lifecycles, potentially triggering unintended payment or fulfillment workflows. The issue is resolved in versions 6.6.10.18 and 6.7.10.1.
