Unauthenticated user redirection via undisclosed link handling
Published Oct 14, 2025 · Updated Oct 14, 2025
Open redirect in Adobe Connect 12.9 and earlier allows remote attackers to send users to malicious sites through crafted links. Adobe has not disclosed the affected endpoint or the validation failure that permits an attacker-controlled destination to be used for the redirect. No authentication is required, but a victim must click the crafted link; the reported consequence is redirection and security-feature bypass.
