1. What is being reported?

Adobe Commerce has a vulnerability where special code elements are not properly handled, allowing attackers to execute their own code on the system. This means hackers can potentially take over the affected system remotely without any user action.

2. What this means in plain English

If your business uses Adobe Commerce for online sales or website management, this flaw could let attackers access your system, steal data, or disrupt your services. Because the attack does not require user interaction, it is especially dangerous and can happen silently.

3. Could this affect a small business?

Small businesses using Adobe Commerce or Magento for their online stores could be affected. If you do not use this software, or if your website is managed by a provider who handles updates, you are less likely to be impacted. It is important to check your software setup.

4. What to do now

  • Check if your website or online store uses Adobe Commerce or Magento software.
  • Contact your IT provider or software supplier immediately to confirm if you are affected and to apply any available security patches.
  • Ensure your website and server software are up to date with the latest security updates.
  • Monitor your systems for any unusual activity and review access logs for signs of compromise.

5. Ask your IT provider

Can you confirm whether our Adobe Commerce or Magento software is affected by CVE-2026-75650, and have the necessary security patches been applied to protect us?

6. Bottom line

If you use Adobe Commerce, act quickly to update and secure your system to prevent hackers from gaining control.
