User redirection via undisclosed redirect validation
Published Mar 22, 2023 · Updated Mar 5, 2025
Open redirect in Adobe Experience Manager 6.5.15.0 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to redirect users to malicious sites. Adobe has not disclosed the affected request handler, redirect parameter, or validation error that accepts an untrusted destination. Low-privilege access is required, and exploitation depends on a user following the crafted redirect; the documented outcome is navigation to an attacker-chosen site.
