Shopware: Privilege Escalation via Sync API Integration Admin Flag Bypass
Quick fix
GHSA-gv8p-48fr-4fxg — shopware/platform: upgrade to the fixed version with the command below.
composer require shopware/platform:^6.7.10.1Details
## Summary
A non-admin API user with `integration:create` ACL privilege can escalate to full administrator by creating an integration with `admin: true` through the Sync API (`POST /api/_action/sync`). The regular integration endpoint (`POST /api/integration`) correctly blocks this, but the Sync API bypasses the controller-level check by writing directly through the DAL EntityWriter. The `integration` entity definition lacks `WriteProtection`, and the `admin` field has no field-level restriction flag.
**OWASP:** A01:2021 — Broken Access Control
## Root Cause
`IntegrationController::upsertIntegration()` checks `$source->isAdmin()` before allowing the `admin` field to be set. However, `SyncController::sync()` routes writes through `SyncService → EntityWriter`, which only applies:
1. `AclWriteValidator` — checks entity-level ACL (`integration:create` is sufficient) 2. `EntityProtectionValidator` — checks `WriteProtection` on entity definitions, but `IntegrationDefinition` has none
The `admin` field in `IntegrationDefinition` is a plain `BoolField` with no `WriteProtection` or special flag. The Sync API writes it without restriction.
**Vulnerable code path:** - `src/Core/Framework/Api/Controller/SyncController.php` → `SyncService` → `EntityWriter::upsert()` - **Missing protection:** `src/Core/Framework/Integration/IntegrationDefinition.php` — `admin` field has no `WriteProtection(Context::SYSTEM_SCOPE)`
**Working protection (bypassed):** - `src/Core/Framework/Integration/IntegrationController.php:46-56` — `isAdmin()` check only applies to the dedicated controller endpoint
## Impact
- **Complete admin API access** — the escalated integration has full read/write on every entity: users, customers, orders, system configuration, integrations, plugins - **PII exfiltration** — read all customer records (names, emails, addresses, order history) - **Persistent backdoor** — the admin integration survives password changes and user deactivation
## Remediation
Add `WriteProtection(Context::SYSTEM_SCOPE)` to `IntegrationDefinition`, matching how `UserDefinition` and `AclRoleDefinition` are already protected:
```php // src/Core/Framework/Integration/IntegrationDefinition.php (new BoolField('admin', 'admin')) ->addFlags(new WriteProtection(Context::SYSTEM_SCOPE)), ```
