CVE-2026-102501: Adobe Content Credentials SDK multiple input validation bypasses

CVE-2026-102501 · Severity: medium · CVSS 5.3 · Published 2026-10-13

Adobe Content Credentials SDK is a toolkit that verifies the authenticity and integrity of digital content through cryptographic credentials. Multiple input validation and certificate verification flaws allow attackers to bypass security controls and tamper with content integrity checks without user interaction, potentially enabling unauthorized modification or distribution of fake authenticated content.

Technologies: Adobe C2pa, Adobe C2PA Tool, Adobe C2pa-Web, Adobe C2patool, Adobe Content Credentials JS SDK, Adobe Content Credentials Rust SDK. Vendors: Adobe.

Technical details

The advisory discloses multiple vulnerabilities across Adobe's Content Credentials ecosystem affecting input validation (CWE-20), certificate validation (CWE-295), cryptographic signature verification (CWE-347), access control (CWE-284), resource consumption (CWE-400), and an SSRF flaw (CWE-918). All require only network access with no authentication or user interaction; attackers can bypass content integrity verification and security policies. Fixes are available in updated versions of the Rust SDK, JavaScript SDK, and C2PA Tool.
