How To Do a Security Audit of Pimcore Enterprise Platform

Our new research paper gives you a roadmap for using Pimcore's features while preserving security.

Enterprises are using Pimcore, an open-source enterprise PHP solution, to streamline data management and experience management across devices. Our new research paper "Auditing Pimcore Enterprise Platform" examines the most common issues with Pimcore and details methods that can be used to find new vulnerabilities in the software.

Pimcore integrates various functionalities, including product information management (PIM), master data management (MDM), digital asset management (DAM), customer data platform (CDP), and digital experience management (DXP). Built on the PHP Symfony framework, Pimcore can be deployed on-premises or in the cloud as a platform-as-a-service (PaaS) component.

Our research paper provides an overview of the core functionalities and structure of Pimcore, highlighting how its modular design promotes code reusability and maintainability. It also delves into common misconfigurations and vulnerabilities, such as cross-site scripting (XSS) and SQL injections (SQLi), and offers practical recommendations on how to safeguard your Pimcore instance.

By reading this research, you will:

Understand core functionalities: Gain insights into the architecture of Pimcore and how it leverages the Symfony framework to provide a scalable and flexible solution.

Identify common vulnerabilities: Learn about the typical security issues found in Pimcore installations, including misconfigurations that can lead to significant security risks.

Learn best practices: Get expert advice on maintaining security, performing regular vulnerability scans, and ensuring your Pimcore stack is always up-to-date.

Our paper also discusses the impact of enabling debug mode, the risks associated with exposed administration panels, and the importance of a stringent Content Security Policy (CSP). We provide detailed methodologies for identifying and mitigating the risks and ensuring that your use of Pimcore remains secure.

Whether you are a developer, security professional, or IT manager, this paper will equip you with the knowledge to optimize and protect your Pimcore deployments.
