Release Information
Magento Security Patch 2.0.1 update fixes issues vendors faced when installing Magento 2.0.0 or 2.0.1 products from compressed archives, (e.g., .tar.gz, .zip, .bz2, etc.). Forix wants to assure customers that the core Magento software and security enhancements are unaffected.
Merchants who installed a Magento 2.0.0 or 2.0.1 product using other options were not affected and do not need to install this patch. Vendors who haven’t downloaded a Magento 2.0 product should skip to Magento 2.0.2 products.
Installation
Merchants who installed Magento 2.0.0 or 2.0.1 products using a compressed archive file should complete the following steps:
- Magento Commerce or Open Source Edition 2.0.0 or 2.0.1 with PHP 5.6
Customers should update the installer from a command line (e.g., type “composer update magento/magento-composer-installer”). After completing this step, use the Web Setup Wizard or a command line to complete the update to your Magento 2.0.0 or 2.0.1 products.
- Magento Commerce or Open Source Edition 2.0.0 or 2.0.1 with PHP 7.0.2
Customers need to install the MDVA-84 patch first. After this, use the command line to update the installer (e.g., type “composer update magento/magento-composer-installer”). Follow this step by using the Web Setup Wizard or a command line to complete the update for your Magento 2.0.0 or 2.0.1 products.
Issues Addressed
Risks addressed by Magento Security Patch 2.0.1 update:
- XSS in Backend Via User Name (APPSEC-1263) – Risk Rating: 9.3 (Critical)
Previously, a customer could provide a user name containing JavaScript code during registration. This code could grant the customer an admin session or role. - Block Cache Exploit (APPSEC-1247) – Risk Rating: 7.7 (High)
A user gaining administrator permissions had access to CMS functionality, allowing them to view encrypted data stored in the cache. Some cases might allow a user to execute code. - Stored XSS in Comments (APPSEC-1239) – Risk Rating: 7.5 (High)
A user could add JavaScript code to an order comment, which is stored in the database. This code could allow a user to execute commands as an administrator.
