MITRE ATT&CK
2 techniques across 2 tactics: Initial Access, Execution The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires a victim who is an authenticated Adobe Campaign Classic user to actively click an attacker-crafted URL or interact with a compromised page (UI:R) - the reflected payload is not persisted, so each target must be lured individually. The attacker needs no credentials or privileges on the server (PR:N) and no special ACC configuration is named in the description as a precondition. The specific vulnerable parameter, endpoint, or feature that reflects the input is NOT described in the available sources. Affected deployments are those running Adobe Campaign Classic version 7.4.4 build 9402 or earlier; this is the primary limiting factor alongside the mandatory user interaction and the requirement that the lured user hold a meaningful ACC session for account/session takeover to have impact. |
| Impact | This is a genuine priority, not a high-CVSS-but-low-risk artifact. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:N) describes a network-reachable, low-complexity, unauthenticated reflected XSS whose changed scope (S:C) reflects script execution in the victim's authenticated session context rather than the server itself, driving the 9.3 (Critical) score. The vuln.today decision label is act_now and the issue was reported by Adobe itself via advisory APSB26-162, so vendor confirmation of the defect is strong. However, several exploitation-pressure signals are MISSING from the input: no EPSS probability is provided, the issue is NOT listed in CISA KEV, and no PoC or exploit reference is supplied - so there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis. The one tension to flag explicitly: the CVSS unauthenticated/low-complexity profile makes this look like a mass-exploitable flaw, but reflected XSS inherently requires per-victim social engineering (UI:R), so real-world abuse is targeted/phishing-driven rather than wormable despite the Critical rating. Treat the act_now label as the controlling urgency signal while recognizing that, absent EPSS/KEV/PoC data, widespread automated exploitation is not currently evidenced. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker crafts a malicious URL targeting the vulnerable Adobe Campaign Classic parameter and delivers it to a logged-in ACC operator via phishing or a compromised page. When the victim clicks it, attacker-controlled script executes in their authenticated session context, letting the attacker hijack the session or act with the victim's privileges. No public exploit was identified in the provided data, so this scenario is inferred from the reflected-XSS mechanism and the UI:R requirement. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 28, 2026
Reflected cross-site scripting in Adobe Campaign Classic 7.4.4 build 9402 and earlier lets unauthenticated remote attackers inject script into a victim's browser session when an authenticated ACC user clicks a crafted URL, potentially enabling account or session takeover. The issue is rated CVSS 9.3 with scope change (S:C), high confidentiality and integrity impact, and mandatory user interaction (UI:R); because the payload is reflected rather than stored, each target must be lured individually. No public exploit code or exploitation has been identified at time of analysis, but the vendor-reported issue is prioritized as act_now given the high impact on authenticated sessions.
RemediationAI
Apply the update described in Adobe advisory APSB26-162 (https://www.adobe.com/trust/security/products/campaign/apsb26-162.html); patch availability is indicated by the vendor advisory, but the provided data does not specify an exact fixed build, so confirm the corrected version in the advisory before upgrading. Affected installations are Adobe Campaign Classic 7.4.4 build 9402 and earlier. Because exploitation requires an authenticated ACC user to click a crafted URL, interim risk reduction should focus on preventing untrusted URLs from reaching logged-in users, such as filtering or warning on inbound links to ACC users; this does not correct the underlying output-encoding defect and should not replace the vendor update.

Adobe Campaign Classic is an enterprise marketing automation platform, and this finding is a CWE-79 improper-neutralization issue in a web page generation path. The CVSS vector CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:N describes a network-reachable, low-complexity reflected XSS that requires no attacker privileges but does require a victim to interact with a malicious URL or compromised page; the scope change (S:C) reflects that the injected script executes in the victim's browser context and can act with the victim's ACC session privileges, affecting resources beyond the vulnerable component. The CPE cpe:2.3:a:adobe:adobe_campaign_classic:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* and ENISA EUVD range 0 ≤ 7.4.4 build 9402 identify Adobe Campaign Classic 7.4.4 build 9402 and earlier as affected. The specific vulnerable parameter, endpoint, or feature that reflects attacker input is not described in the available sources, so the exact trigger is not confirmed.

DescriptionNVD
Adobe Campaign Classic (ACC) is affected by a reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to inject malicious scripts into a web page, potentially gaining elevated access or control over the victim's account or session. Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction in that a victim must visit a maliciously crafted URL or interact with a compromised web page. Scope is changed.

Executive ViewAI
A critical reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability in Adobe Campaign Classic (versions 7.4.4 build 9402 and earlier) enables unauthenticated attackers to hijack authenticated user sessions, potentially leading to unauthorized access to campaign data and administrative functions. Leadership should prioritize remediation because exploitation-though requiring user interaction-could result in significant data breaches and operational disruption, affecting marketing operations and compliance.
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Interim mitigations include: deploy WAF rules to filter malicious script injection attempts; enforce user awareness training on phishing and suspicious links; implement additional session protection such as short session timeouts and re-authentication for sensitive actions; restrict application access to trusted IP ranges or VPN.
