Privilege escalation via stored script injection
Published Dec 10, 2025 · Updated Dec 10, 2025
Stored XSS in Adobe Experience Manager 6.5.23 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to inject scripts into form fields. Adobe identifies vulnerable form fields as the storage locus but has not disclosed which field handler fails to neutralize submitted script content. Low-privileged access is sufficient to plant the script, but execution requires a victim to browse to the affected page, enabling privilege escalation in that user's browser context.
