Browser script execution via unsanitized DOM data
Published Dec 10, 2024 · Updated Dec 11, 2024
DOM-based XSS in Adobe Experience Manager 6.5.21 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to execute script in a victim's browser. User-controllable data is insufficiently sanitized before a page writes it into the DOM, causing the browser to interpret malicious content as script; Adobe has not identified the specific source or sink. Exploitation requires low-privileged access and victim interaction through a crafted link or malicious site, with execution limited to the victim's browser context.
