CVE-2026-48010 — Shopware: Privilege escalation: non-admin user with user:create ACL can create admin accounts

Shopware is an open commerce platform. Prior to 6.6.10.18 and 6.7.10.1, UserController::upsertUser() in src/Core/Framework/Api/Controller/UserController.php writes raw user data in SYSTEM_SCOPE without filtering the admin field, so a non-admin API user with user:create or user:update ACL permission can set admin: true on new or existing users; IntegrationController::upsertIntegration() contains an isAdmin() check for the same field, but UserController was missing this check. This issue is fixed in versions 6.6.10.18 and 6.7.10.1.

Who exploits it and how urgent it is

A 0–100 score combining confirmed exploitation, ransomware and APT use, public exploits, EPSS and severity.

No exploitation signal in the sources consulted so far.
How the score was calculated
  • EPSS 0.5% (30-day exploitation probability)+6
  • Technical severity (medium)+3

The score orders the patch queue; it does not replace your asset context (internet exposure, criticality, compensating controls).

Triage

Is it exploited, how likely is exploitation, what does it touch, and how severe do the sources call it.

Remediation

Fixes and mitigations documented by the sources — linked to the original advisory.

No fix documented by the sources we poll. That does not mean none exists: check the vendor advisory.

First 24 hours

Ordered from the record’s own fields — exposure first, because you cannot patch what you have not found. A rule-generated starting point.

  1. Identify exposed assets running the affected vendor/product/version combinations (Shopware Platform, Shopware Shopware).
  2. No fix documented in the sources: reduce exposure and monitor the vendor advisory.
  3. Search available logs for exploit probes matching the vulnerability class (privilege escalation), errors and authentication anomalies.

Affected scope

Vendor, product and versions as the sources word them.

What should defenders know first?

CVE-2026-48010 is "Shopware: Privilege escalation: non-admin user with user:create ACL can create admin accounts", rated Medium. It affects Platform (Shopware); versions are in the scope table. It is not in CISA KEV, which does not rule out exploitation. CVSS 6.5 describes technical severity. EPSS 0.47% estimates the probability of exploitation in 30 days; neither replaces your asset context. First verify whether exposed or business-critical assets run the affected versions, apply vendor fixes or mitigations, and preserve logs for review.
