Technical details

Adobe Experience Manager is vulnerable to an XML External Entity (XXE) injection (CWE-611). The vulnerability exists due to improper restriction of XML external entity references during the processing of XML data. A remote attacker with low-privileged credentials can exploit this by sending a specially crafted XML payload to the server. Successful exploitation allows the attacker to read arbitrary files from the server's filesystem, perform server-side request forgery (SSRF), and potentially achieve arbitrary code execution. The vulnerability is particularly severe as it involves a scope change (S:C), indicating the impact can extend beyond the immediate software component. Patches are available in versions 2026.6.0, 6.5 LTS SP2, and 6.5.25.

Affected products

Adobe Experience Manager as a Cloud Service <= 2026.5.0
