Experience Manager versions 6.5.15.0 (and earlier) are affected by a Weak Cryptography for Passwords vulnerability that can lead to a security feature bypass. A low-privileged attacker can exploit this in order to decrypt a users password. The attack complexity is high since a successful exploitation requires to already have in possession this encrypted secret.

Weakness

The product stores or transmits sensitive data using an encryption scheme that is theoretically sound, but is not strong enough for the level of protection required.

Affected Software

Name Vendor Start Version End Version
Experience_manager Adobe * 6.5.16.0 (excluding)
Experience_manager_cloud_service Adobe * 2023.1.0 (excluding)
