Technical details
A missing authorization vulnerability exists in ProductSearchEvents where search-result mutation events (searchRemoveFromCategory, searchExpireFromCategory, searchAddToCategory, searchAddFeature, searchRemoveFeature) validate permissions only at the servlet request-map level (view permission) rather than enforcing the DELETE/CREATE permissions required at the entity-engine operation level. An authenticated attacker with catalog view permission can invoke these events on bulk search results to perform unauthorized entity modifications that bypass the equivalent service-layer permission checks.
Affected products
