Amasty patches dozens of Magento extensions, 2 critical

Amasty patched dozens of Magento/Adobe Commerce extensions, including two critical flaws allowing unauthenticated web shell upload and remote code execution.

Extension vendor Amasty released fixes for a large batch of Magento and Adobe Commerce modules, with critical unauthenticated file upload flaws in Advanced Product Reviews and Gift Card that allow attackers to plant web shells and take full control of stores. Dozens of additional high-, medium- and low-severity extensions were also patched. The vendor says the release affects almost every Magento and Adobe Commerce store. A related Order Attributes flaw was previously exploited heavily, with Sansec Shield blocking over 12,000 attempts against 25% of Magento stores in three days.

AWS Console Private Access can block sign-ins to personal accounts

AWS Console Private Access goes GA, letting internet-isolated VPCs reach the console fully over PrivateLink and blocking personal account sign-ins.

AWS Console Private Access became generally available on August 28, allowing the AWS Management Console, sign-in flows, static assets, and console-only APIs to run entirely over PrivateLink endpoints from VPCs with no internet connectivity. Deployment requires three interface endpoints per Region, correct Private DNS and security group settings, and uses aws:PrincipalOrgID policies plus sign-in resource control policies to deny authentication from unexpected networks, which blocks corporate-network users from signing into personal AWS accounts. IAM Identity Center sign-in and consoles for services without PrivateLink support still need internet access, and a misconfigured policy can lock out the whole organization, so AWS recommends an excluded break-glass role; CLI and SDK SigV4 requests bypass these policies and serve as a recovery path.
