Executive brief
Adobe Experience Manager, a platform used by organizations to manage digital content and assets, is affected by a security vulnerability that could allow an attacker to execute malicious code in a user's browser. To exploit this, an attacker would need to trick a logged-in user into visiting a specially crafted web link. If successful, this could lead to unauthorized actions being performed on behalf of the user or the theft of sensitive session information.
Technical details
A DOM-based Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability (CWE-79) exists in Adobe Experience Manager. The flaw stems from improper neutralization of input during web page generation, allowing an attacker to manipulate the Document Object Model (DOM) environment. Exploitation requires a remote attacker with low privileges to convince a victim to interact with a malicious URL or crafted webpage. Successful exploitation allows the execution of arbitrary JavaScript in the victim's browser session, potentially leading to session hijacking or unauthorized data access. Adobe has addressed this in updated versions of Experience Manager.
