Vulnerability in pimcore/studio-backend-bundle (CVE-2026-55207)

Summary

Vulnerability in pimcore/studio-backend-bundle (CVE-2026-55207). Successful exploitation can lead to full system takeover. Exploitable via POST /pimcore-studio/api/login/token. Mitigation: upgrade to 2026.1.6 or later.

Original description

The description as published by the source.

Pimcore is an Open Source Data & Experience Management Platform. Prior to 2025.4.6 and 2026.1.6, an unauthenticated attacker who knows a valid admin username can take over any Pimcore admin account by sending a password reset request with an attacker-controlled resetPasswordUrl. The server generates a real cryptographic recovery token, appends it to the supplied URL, and emails the link to the victim; when the victim clicks the link, the token is sent to the attacker and can be used with POST /pimcore-studio/api/login/token to authenticate with full admin privileges while bypassing two-factor authentication. This issue is fixed in versions 2025.4.6 and 2026.1.6.

❓ What is the problem

A vulnerability (CWE-640) exists in pimcore/studio-backend-bundle. Attackers reach the vulnerable code path via POST /pimcore-studio/api/login/token without authentication.

📍 Affected scope

Check the vendor advisory for the affected versions of pimcore/studio-backend-bundle. Attack surface: POST /pimcore-studio/api/login/token / POST /pimcore-studio/api/user/reset-password / GET /pimcore-studio/api/users / resetPasswordUrl.

🔥 Severity

Severity: High (CVSS 8.8/10). Successful exploitation can lead to full system takeover.

🔧 How to fix

Update to 2026.1.6.

🛡️ Workaround

Until the patch is applied: disable the affected feature, apply WAF rules, or restrict access via network ACLs.

🔍 Detection

Search webserver/proxy logs for unusual POST /pimcore-studio/api/login/token requests with malformed payloads or SQL meta-characters. Run grep -r 'pimcore/studio-backend-bundle' . against your dependency files (package-lock.json, requirements.txt, go.sum) to find affected services.

Response actions

Concrete steps and command examples for SOC/SRE teams to execute in order

  1. 1
    Identify exposure identify
    grep -r 'pimcore/studio-backend-bundle' . | grep -v node_modules

    リポジトリと本番環境の依存ファイル (package-lock.json / requirements.txt / go.sum / Gemfile.lock 等) で pimcore/studio-backend-bundle を grep し、稼働しているサービス・バージョンを把握する。

  2. 2
    Hunt for indicators of compromise detect
    grep 'POST /pimcore-studio/api/login/token' /var/log/nginx/access.log | grep -E '(unusual_payload|sqli_pattern)'

    アクセスログで POST /pimcore-studio/api/login/token への異常なリクエスト (不正な認証ヘッダ・SQLメタ文字)を過去 30〜90日分捜索。WAF/SIEM があれば該当パスのアラート発火履歴を確認。

  3. 3
    Apply patch patch
    Upgrade pimcore/studio-backend-bundle to 2026.1.6

    ステージング環境で 2026.1.6 に上げて回帰テスト → 本番反映。回帰テストはアプリの主要ハッピーパスと、Step 2 で見つけた異常検知の続報チェックを含めること。

  4. 4
    Post-deployment verification verify
    Replay attack against POST /pimcore-studio/api/login/token on staging to confirm patch closes the vector

    パッチ適用後、ステージングで PoC または同等の悪用パターンを再現して脆弱性が閉じたことを確認。本番では Step 2 と同じログクエリでアラート再発が無いか継続監視。
