Description

Shopware 6's password recovery link does not expire after email change

Summary

When a customer changes their email address after requesting a password reset, the old password reset link (tied to the previous email) remains valid. An attacker with access to the old email inbox is potentially able to reset the customer’s password even after the user changes their email address.

PoC

1. Log in to a Shopware account.

2. Request a password reset for your current email address.

3. Copy the password reset link but do not open it.

4. Log back into your account.n

5. Navigate to Account Settings → Email and change your email address.

6. Use the previously copied reset link (from before the email change).

7. The system allows password change using the old link.

Impact

Reproduced on Stable 6.6.10.7 and trunk.

How this vulnerability can be exploited

This issue can be reached over the network, attack complexity is high, an attacker needs administrative privileges on the target. No user interaction is required. The scope is unchanged, so the impact stays within the vulnerable component. Rated impact: confidentiality none, integrity high, availability low.

CVSS metrics in full

The score comes from this vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:L

  • Attack vector: Network — reachable from anywhere that can route to the service.
  • Attack complexity: High — the attacker first has to win a race, learn a secret or otherwise prepare the target.
  • Privileges required: High — administrative rights are needed first.
  • User interaction: None — nobody has to be tricked into anything.
  • Scope: Unchanged — the damage stays inside the vulnerable component.
  • Confidentiality impact: None.
  • Integrity impact: High — total loss, or loss the attacker controls.
  • Availability impact: Low — limited, and the attacker does not choose what is affected.
