AnalysisAI
Arbitrary code execution in Adobe Campaign Classic (ACC) versions 7.4.3 build 9397 and earlier stems from an incorrect authorization flaw (CWE-863) that lets remote attackers run code in the context of the current user without any user interaction. Adobe's PSIRT reported the issue and rates it CVSS 9.8; it is tagged as an authentication-bypass-to-RCE chain. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and it is not on CISA KEV, but SSVC flags the technical impact as total and the attack as automatable.
Technical ContextAI
Adobe Campaign Classic is an on-premises/hosted enterprise marketing-automation and cross-channel campaign platform, typically deployed as a server application handling customer data, email/SMS delivery, and workflow execution. The root cause is CWE-863 (Incorrect Authorization): the application makes an access-control decision but enforces it incorrectly, so a request that should be rejected is instead honored, letting an actor reach functionality that ultimately executes code. The affected CPEs are cpe:2.3:a:adobe:campaign:*:*:*:*:classic:* including the specific 7.4.3 builds 9394, 9396, 9397 and 9398, indicating the flaw sits in the Campaign Classic codebase rather than a bundled third-party library. Because the impacted operations in ACC can invoke server-side logic (workflows/JS activities), an authorization gap of this class commonly translates into code execution rather than mere data disclosure.
RemediationAI
Patch available per vendor advisory Adobe APSB26-114 (https://helpx.adobe.com/security/products/campaign/apsb26-114.html) - apply the fixed build for Campaign Classic 7.4.3 as directed by Adobe (the exact patched build is not unambiguously stated in the available data since CPE lists build 9398 among affected entries while EUVD lists ≤9397 as vulnerable, so confirm the target version directly in APSB26-114 before deploying). Until patched, reduce exposure by restricting network reachability of the ACC application/console and API endpoints to trusted management networks or VPN only, and place the server behind a reverse proxy or WAF that enforces authentication and blocks anonymous access to campaign/workflow execution endpoints; the trade-off is that legitimate remote operators and integrations may need allowlisting. Additionally review and tighten operator/role authorization within ACC and monitor for anomalous workflow or JavaScript-activity execution, accepting the operational overhead of stricter access review.
