AI Analysis

Impact

CAI Content Credentials contains an Improper Verification of Cryptographic Signature flaw that allows an attacker to bypass security controls and gain limited write access without user interaction. The weakness, identified as CWE-347, means that signed content can be accepted regardless of its authenticity, potentially allowing an adversary to insert or modify data in a manner that the system treats as legitimate.

Affected Systems

The affected products are Adobe’s C2PA Tool, Adobe Content Credentials JavaScript SDK, and Adobe Content Credentials Rust SDK. No specific version information is provided by the CNA, so all released builds of these components should be considered potentially vulnerable until a patched version is available.

Risk and Exploitability

This issue carries a CVSS score of 5.3 and an EPSS score of less than 1 %, indicating a moderate severity with low expected exploitation probability. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Based on the description, the vulnerability can be exploited remotely without user interaction, likely by supplying forged data to the SDK’s signature verification path.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Apply the latest version of the Adobe Content Credentials SDK that includes a proper cryptographic signature verification fix.
  • If an updated SDK is not yet available, enforce strict write‑control policies and monitor for unauthorized write attempts to mitigate the potential impact.
  • Review and tighten the application’s signature validation logic so that signatures are verified only against trusted, pre‑configured keys and reject any unverified data.
