medium Nessus Plugin ID 164989

Synopsis

The Adobe Experience Manager instance installed on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of Adobe Experience Manager installed on the remote host is prior to 6.5.14.0. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the APSB22-40 advisory.

- Adobe Experience Manager versions 6.5.13.0 (and earlier) is affected by a reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability. If an attacker is able to convince a victim to visit a URL referencing a vulnerable page, malicious JavaScript content may be executed within the context of the victim's browser.
Exploitation of this issue requires low-privilege access to AEM. (CVE-2022-28851, CVE-2022-30677, CVE-2022-30678, CVE-2022-30680, CVE-2022-30681, CVE-2022-30682, CVE-2022-30684, CVE-2022-30685, CVE-2022-30686, CVE-2022-34218, CVE-2022-35664, CVE-2022-38438, CVE-2022-38439)

- Adobe Experience Manager versions 6.5.13.0 (and earlier) is affected by a Violation of Secure Design Principles vulnerability that could lead to bypass the security feature of the encryption mechanism in the backend . An attacker could leverage this vulnerability to decrypt secrets, however, this is a high- complexity attack as the threat actor needs to already possess those secrets. Exploitation of this issue requires low-privilege access to AEM. (CVE-2022-30683)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Adobe Experience Manager version 6.5.14.0 or later.
