Privilege escalation via malicious script injection
Published Apr 14, 2026 · Updated Apr 14, 2026
Cross-site scripting in Adobe Connect 12.10 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to escalate privileges through malicious script injection. Adobe has not disclosed the affected page or input-handling path; the published mechanism only states that attacker-controlled script is injected into a web page. Exploitation also affects Desktop Application 2025.3 and earlier and requires a victim to visit a crafted URL or interact with a compromised page, exposing the victim's account or session to elevated attacker control.
