Security readout for executives and security teams

Adobe Experience Manager 6.1 and earlier had an input validation flaw in DAM asset creation. A malicious user could potentially inject script into the web experience, creating cross-site scripting risk for users who view affected content or workflows. Exposure is most likely where Adobe Experience Manager 6.1 or earlier remains deployed, especially if DAM asset creation is reachable by untrusted, semi-trusted, or broadly privileged users. Treat this as a legacy web application risk. It is not confirmed as actively exploited here, but any remaining AEM 6.1-or-earlier deployment should be reviewed promptly because CMS XSS can affect users and administrators. Mitigation focus: Identify any Adobe Experience Manager 6.1 or earlier deployments.; Review Adobe APSB16-42 for the vendor-supported remediation path.; Restrict DAM asset creation to trusted users until remediated..
