Impact
You can create, delete etc. tags without having the permission to do so.
This vulnerability allows an attacker to perform broken access control and add tags to admin panel and add dumy data. One can do this as intruder and add text parameters with random numbers and this will effect integrity and availability.
The application does not perform an authorization check before performing a sensitive operation. Typical impact: unauthorized access to restricted functionality or data.
CVE-2024-24822 has a CVSS score of 6.5 (Medium). The vector is network-reachable, low privileges required, and no user interaction. A CVSS score reflects the worst-case severity of the vulnerability, not your specific exposure. Whether this affects your application depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable in your environment. A fixed version is available (1.3.3); upgrading removes the vulnerable code path.

Kodem intelligence
Severity tells you how bad this could be in the worst case. It does not tell you whether you are exposed. Exploitability and impact are functions of runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A vulnerable package can sit in your dependency tree and never run.
Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter. Kodem's runtime-powered SCA identifies whether this CVE is reachable in your applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is CVE-2024-24822? CVE-2024-24822 is a medium-severity missing authorization vulnerability in pimcore/admin-ui-classic-bundle (composer), affecting versions < 1.3.3. It is fixed in 1.3.3. The application does not perform an authorization check before performing a sensitive operation.
- How severe is CVE-2024-24822? CVE-2024-24822 has a CVSS score of 6.5 (Medium). This score reflects the worst-case severity of the vulnerability, not your specific exposure. Whether it represents real risk in your environment depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable.
- Which versions of pimcore/admin-ui-classic-bundle are affected by CVE-2024-24822? pimcore/admin-ui-classic-bundle (composer) versions < 1.3.3 is affected.
- Is there a fix for CVE-2024-24822? Yes. CVE-2024-24822 is fixed in 1.3.3. Upgrade to this version or later.
- Is CVE-2024-24822 exploitable, and should I be worried? Whether CVE-2024-24822 is exploitable in your environment depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable. A CVSS score is a worst-case rating; it does not account for your specific deployment, configuration, or usage patterns. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to show which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so you can focus on the ones that represent real risk.

- What actually determines whether CVE-2024-24822 is exploitable, and how bad it is? Exploitability and impact are not fixed properties of a CVE. They depend on runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A high CVSS score on a dependency that never runs is not the same as real risk. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter.
