On October 10, 2023 Adobe published various security releases for Adobe Commerce and Magento Open Source.
Note
Security highlights
All 3 releases introduce a new full page cache configuration setting that helps to mitigate the risks associated with the {BASE-URL}/page_cache/block/esi HTTP endpoint. This endpoint supports unrestricted, dynamically loaded content fragments from Commerce layout handles and block structures. The new Handles Param configuration setting sets the value of this endpoint’s handles parameter, which determines the maximum allowed number of handles per API. The default value of this property is 100. Merchants can change this value from the Admin (Stores > Settings:Configuration > System > Full Page Cache > Handles Param.
Security fixes
This patch includes ten security fixes for all 3 versions mentioned here. See Adobe Security Bulletin for the latest discussion of these fixed issues.
