Critical
Security patch status cannot be verified
Evidence: Composer package versions and patch indicators do not clearly show expected mitigation for the target security advisory.
Impact: Store may be exposed to known Magento security issues, and agency cannot confidently approve deployment or support takeover.
Recommended action: Verify applied patch files, confirm vendor package versions, and document mitigation before further work.
High
Checkout plugin increases upgrade risk
Evidence: Custom module intercepts checkout/order placement flow and uses direct service fallback patterns.
Impact: Payment or order placement may break during patching or version upgrade.
Recommended action: Review plugin behavior and add regression test coverage before upgrade.
Medium
Cron health is inconsistent
Evidence: Cron output shows missed jobs and recurring exceptions.
Impact: Indexes, emails, catalog rules, and integrations may lag silently.
Recommended action: Repair cron schedule and monitor missed jobs for 72 hours.
