Unauthorized data access via expression language injection
Published Sep 9, 2025 · Updated Sep 9, 2025
Expression language injection in Adobe Experience Manager 6.5.23.0 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to read unauthorized data. The server processes a crafted request through an expression-language path without adequately validating its input, bypassing read restrictions. Low-privileged access is required, and exploitation exposes data across a changed security scope without enabling modification or interruption.
