Hackers are targeting websites using the PrestaShop platform, leveraging a previously unknown vulnerability chain to perform code execution and potentially steal customers' payment information.

The PrestaShop team issued an urgent warning last Friday, urging the admins of 300,000 shops using its software to review their security stance after cyberattacks were discovered targeting the platform.

The attack appears to impact PrestaShop versions 1.6.0.10 or later and versions 1.7.8.2 or later if they run modules vulnerable to SQL injection, such as the Wishlist 2.0.0 to 2.1.0 module.

The actively exploited vulnerability is being tracked with the identifier CVE-2022-36408.
