CVE-2026-102501 describes an improper input validation flaw in Adobe's Content Credentials API. The flaw can be exploited to bypass built-in security features and gain restricted write access to resources. The vulnerability does not require user interaction, so an attacker can trigger the defect autonomously.

The affected products are Adobe C2PA Tool, Adobe Content Credentials JS SDK, and Adobe Content Credentials Rust SDK. Version data is not provided in the advisory, which implies that the issue may affect all released versions until a patch is issued.

The CVSS score of 5.3 classifies the vulnerability as moderate. The EPSS score of less than 1 % suggests a low probability of exploitation at the time of evaluation. The advisory notes that the bug is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. The attack vector is likely remote, based on the description that exploitation can occur without user interaction, though the precise user context is not specified. Attackers would need to supply crafted input to the vulnerability to trigger the bypass and then use the limited write privileges that result.
