CVE-2026-31889: Shopware App Registration Flow Credential Takeover

Vulnerability ID: CVE-2026-31889
CVSS Score: 8.9
Published: 2026-03-11

CVE-2026-31889 is a critical vulnerability within the Shopware open commerce platform's app registration flow. The flaw exists in the legacy HMAC-based handshake mechanism used for app re-registration. It permits an unauthenticated attacker to spoof registration requests and hijack communication channels, leading to the unauthorized interception of API credentials and integration tokens.

TL;DR

Shopware versions prior to 6.6.10.15 and 6.7.8.1 fail to require a proof-of-possession signature during app re-registration. Attackers possessing a shared App Secret can modify a shop's URL routing metadata to intercept API tokens and webhooks.

Implementation of old secret persistence for re-installations.

Mitigation Strategies

  • Upgrade Shopware core and platform packages
  • Implement secret rotation for installed apps
  • Validate shopware-shop-signature header in app backends

Remediation Steps:
