AI Analysis

Impact

Adobe Experience Manager is vulnerable to a DOM‑based Cross‑Site Scripting flaw that allows an attacker to execute arbitrary JavaScript within a victim’s browser context. The vulnerability is achieved by manipulating the browser’s DOM environment with a crafted webpage. The impact is limited to the security context of the victim’s user session; it does not alter system configuration or grant privileged access. The flaw is classified as CWE‑79.

Affected Systems

Adobe Experience Manager versions 6.5 and the 6.5 LTS branch are affected, as identified by the CNA. No other Adobe products are listed as impacted by this issue.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 5.4 indicates a moderate risk level. Exploitation is contingent upon user interaction—specifically, the victim must open a maliciously constructed webpage—so widespread autonomous attack is unlikely. The EPSS score is unavailable and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, suggesting that no confirmed active exploitation has been reported.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Apply the Adobe Experience Manager security update released in APSB26-152 to eliminate the DOM‑based XSS flaw.
  • Enforce a strict Content Security Policy that blocks inline scripts and disallows ‘eval’ usage in AEM pages to mitigate any remaining potential DOM manipulation.
  • Audit client‑side code for any direct insertion of user data into the DOM and ensure proper sanitization and encoding according to CWE‑79 mitigation guidelines.
