Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires a valid low-privileged authenticated ACC account (CVSS PR:L) with network reachability to the Adobe Campaign Classic application/API - it is NOT anonymously exploitable. The specific prerequisite is the ability to submit input into a feature that ACC dynamically evaluates as code (e.g., personalization/JSSP scripting, workflow activities, or expression-driven API calls); the CWE-95 eval-injection path is triggered by that dynamically evaluated input. No user interaction is needed (UI:N) and attack complexity is low (AC:L). Limiting factors: an attacker without any ACC credentials cannot exploit this, and instances that restrict access to trusted networks and minimize server-side scripting exposure materially reduce reachability.

Impact

The signals lean toward genuine high priority but with a meaningful gating factor. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:N) shows network-reachable, low-complexity, no-user-interaction exploitation yielding high confidentiality and integrity impact with a scope change - hence 9.6 critical. The key limiter is PR:L: the attacker must already hold a low-privileged authenticated account, so this is not an anonymous internet-wide RCE. No EPSS score was supplied, so probabilistic exploitation likelihood cannot be quantified here. There is no CISA KEV entry and no POC in the provided data, so this is not confirmed to be under active exploitation. Notably the vendor set A:N (no availability impact), which is somewhat unusual for arbitrary code execution - code execution typically enables denial of service - so the availability rating may be conservative; verify against the Adobe advisory. Net: treat as a high-priority patch for internet-exposed or multi-tenant ACC instances where low-privileged accounts exist, but the authentication requirement reduces mass-exploitation risk relative to a PR:N flaw.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker with a low-privileged ACC account crafts a personalization expression, workflow parameter, or API input containing injected script directives; when ACC dynamically evaluates that input server-side, the attacker's code executes in the context of the current user. Because scope is changed, the attacker can leverage this to affect resources beyond the initial component, potentially pivoting into campaign data or the hosting environment. No public exploit code is identified at time of analysis, but the low attack complexity makes weaponization straightforward once account access is obtained.

AnalysisAIv1 – Aug 03, 2026

Remote code execution in Adobe Campaign Classic (ACC) lets an authenticated low-privileged attacker inject directives into dynamically evaluated code (CWE-95 eval injection) and run arbitrary code in the context of the current user. Because the CVSS scope is changed, the impact can reach components beyond the initially exploited one, driving the 9.6 critical score. Reported by Adobe with advisory APSB26-120; no public exploit identified at time of analysis and no CISA KEV listing.

RemediationAI

Apply the update referenced in Adobe security bulletin APSB26-120 (https://helpx.adobe.com/security/products/campaign/apsb26-120.html) - Patch available per vendor advisory; confirm the exact patched build in that advisory and upgrade the affected ACC instance to it, as no fixed version string is included in this feed. As compensating controls until patching, restrict and audit low-privileged ACC accounts (the exploit requires PR:L), disable or tightly scope server-side scripting/personalization features that evaluate user-supplied expressions, and place the ACC console and API endpoints behind VPN/allowlisted network access rather than exposing them to the internet - trade-off: limiting scripting features may break existing campaign workflows and personalization, so test in staging. Monitor application and workflow-execution logs for anomalous script/eval activity as a detection layer.

Technical ContextAI · show details

Adobe Campaign Classic is an on-premises/hosted enterprise marketing-automation platform that heavily uses server-side scripting (JavaScript/JSSP personalization blocks, workflow activities, and SOAP/API-driven expression evaluation) to build campaigns, templates, and data queries. The root cause is CWE-95, Improper Neutralization of Directives in Dynamically Evaluated Code ('Eval Injection'): attacker-controlled input reaches an eval-style interpreter without adequate sanitization, so supplied data is parsed and executed as code rather than treated as inert content. The affected CPE is cpe:2.3:a:adobe:adobe_campaign_classic:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*, indicating Adobe has not, in this feed, pinned the fix to a specific build - the vendor advisory (APSB26-120) is the authoritative source for exact affected versions.

DescriptionCVE.org

Adobe Campaign Classic (ACC) is affected by an Improper Neutralization of Directives in Dynamically Evaluated Code ('Eval Injection') vulnerability that could result in arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user. A low-privileged attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code. Exploitation of this issue does not require user interaction. Scope is changed.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

Adobe Campaign Classic (ACC) contains a critical remote code execution vulnerability (CVE-2026-48317, CVSS 9.6) enabling authenticated attackers with low privileges to execute arbitrary code with impact extending across connected systems. At time of analysis, no public exploit has been identified and no vendor-released patch has been identified. Organizations running ACC must immediately isolate affected instances and monitor for unauthorized access.

Business Impact: Severe
Compensating Controls

Network isolation of ACC from critical systems; WAF rules targeting CWE-95 pattern injection; enforce least-privilege access controls on ACC user accounts; disable unused ACC features and plugins; implement comprehensive audit logging for all ACC code execution and authentication events; maintain offline backup systems; consider temporary suspension of non-critical ACC operations pending patch availability.
