CVE-2019-16467Network attack vector

Sensitive information disclosure via reflected XSS

Published Jan 15, 2020 · Updated Aug 5, 2024

Reflected cross-site scripting in Adobe Experience Manager 6.5, 6.4, 6.3, 6.2, 6.1 and 6.0 allows remote attackers to disclose sensitive information. Adobe identifies the flaw as reflected XSS but does not publish the specific endpoint or parameter that fails to neutralize attacker-controlled input. Exploitation requires a victim to request a crafted URL, so impact is limited to information disclosed through the victim's browser context.
