What is CVE-2024-29197?

CVE-2024-29197 is a medium-severity missing authorization vulnerability in Pimcore Pimcore, published on 26 Mar 2024. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.

Official description

Pimcore is an Open Source Data & Experience Management Platform. Any call with the query argument `?pimcore_preview=true` allows to view unpublished sites. In previous versions of Pimcore, session information would propagate to previews, so only a logged in user could open a preview. This no longer applies. Previews are broad open to any user and with just the hint of a restricted link one could gain access to possible confident / unreleased information. This vulnerability is fixed in 11.2.2 and 11.1.6.1.

Weakness: CWE-200
