Unauthorized reads via access-token verification SSRF
Published Sep 9, 2025 · Updated Sep 9, 2025
SSRF in Adobe Experience Manager 6.5.23.0 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to read protected resources through server requests. The access-token verification service accepts an attacker-controlled auth_url value and makes a server-side request without adequate destination validation. Low-privileged access is sufficient, and the reported consequence is unauthorized read access rather than data modification or service interruption.
