How the Exploit Works

The vulnerability lies in the improper input validation mechanism in Adobe Experience Manager. An attacker could exploit this by sending specially crafted requests to the server, which due to the improper validation, could allow the attacker to bypass security measures. This could result in unauthorized access to data and potentially compromise the system.

Conceptual Example Code

Here’s a conceptual example of how the vulnerability could be exploited using a HTTP request:

POST /vulnerable/endpoint HTTP/1.1
Host: target.example.com
Content-Type: application/json
{ "malicious_payload": "<payload exploiting input validation>" }

In this example, the malicious_payload is sent to a vulnerable endpoint, exploiting the improper input validation mechanism and potentially allowing the attacker to bypass security measures and gain unauthorized access.

Mitigation Guidance

To mitigate this vulnerability, Adobe has released a patch for the affected versions of Adobe Experience Manager. It is highly recommended to apply this patch as soon as possible. In the interim, use of a Web Application Firewall (WAF) or Intrusion Detection System (IDS) can offer temporary mitigation.
