Victim-session script execution via reflected XSS
Published Dec 21, 2022 · Updated Apr 23, 2025
Reflected XSS in Adobe Experience Manager 6.5.14.0 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to execute script in a victim's browser. Adobe identifies reflected cross-site scripting but does not disclose the vulnerable page, parameter, or server-side operation that returns untrusted input without safe output encoding. Exploitation requires low-privileged access and a victim who follows an attacker-supplied URL; executed script can read or alter browser-accessible data in the victim's AEM session.
