AI Analysis

Impact

A stored Cross‑Site Scripting vulnerability exists in Adobe Experience Manager that allows a low‑privileged attacker to insert malicious scripts into form fields. When a victim accesses a page that contains the compromised field, the injected JavaScript is executed in the victim’s browser context. The CVE description does not specify further exploitation beyond execution of the script.

Affected Systems

Adobe Experience Manager customers using version 6.5, 6.5 LTS, or the Cloud Service are affected. The flaw is present across these releases and involves any form fields that accept and store user input.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score is 5.4, indicating a moderate severity. An EPSS score is not available, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. The attack vector is likely web‑based, with a low‑privileged attacker able to submit crafted input that the system stores without adequate sanitization. The scope is changed, meaning the impact can extend beyond the component that processes the input, allowing the injected code to run across the application for any user who views the affected page.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Apply the official Adobe patch for CVE‑2026‑75731 as detailed in the Adobe Security Bulletin for Experience Manager 6.5, 6.5 LTS, and Cloud Service.
  • Configure all form fields in Experience Manager to perform strict input validation and output encoding to prevent script injection.
  • Conduct regular security testing, including automated scans for stored XSS, focusing on form fields that accept user input.
  • If the patch cannot be applied immediately, configure a web application firewall or input‑sanitization library to block or strip script tags from submitted form data.
