Arbitrary code execution in Adobe's Content Authenticity (CAI) Content Credentials tooling — the c2pa Rust SDK (≤0.84.0), the @contentauth/c2pa-web JS SDK (≤0.7.0), and the c2patool CLI (≤0.16.5) — arises from an untrusted search path (CWE-426) that loads attacker-controlled libraries and runs code as the current user. Adobe PSIRT reports the flaw requires victim interaction (visiting a crafted URL or interacting with a compromised page) and a local attack vector, and there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis. EPSS is low (0.14%, 4th percentile) and CISA SSVC records exploitation as 'none', consistent with a not-yet-exploited but total-technical-impact issue.

DescriptionCVE.org
CAI Content Credentials is affected by an Untrusted Search Path vulnerability that could result in arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user. Exploit depends on conditions beyond the attacker's control. 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
Adobe Content Authenticity tooling (c2pa Rust SDK ≤0.84.0, @contentauth/c2pa-web JS SDK ≤0.7.0, c2patool CLI ≤0.16.5) contains a high-severity arbitrary code execution vulnerability through untrusted library loading. While exploitation probability is currently low (0.1% EPSS) with no public exploit identified, any organization using these SDKs for content verification or authentication workflows faces supply chain risk if an attacker delivers a malicious message or URL to a system running vulnerable versions.
Within 24 hours, inventory all systems and dependencies using the affected Adobe Content Authenticity SDK versions (Rust ≤0.84.0, JavaScript ≤0.7.0, CLI ≤0.16.5) and classify by production exposure. Within 7 days, implement compensating controls including restriction of affected tool execution to sandboxed or offline environments, strict input validation for external URLs and content sources, and enhanced monitoring for suspicious process execution or library loading attempts originating from these SDKs. Within 30 days, establish automated patch deployment procedures and monitor Adobe's security advisories for patched versions; prepare a rollout plan for immediate update upon vendor release.
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Interim mitigations: restrict affected SDK versions to offline or isolated execution environments if possible; implement strict allowlisting of trusted content sources and URLs to limit malicious payload delivery vectors; enforce least-privilege execution contexts for processes running these tools; increase logging and alerting on library load operations; consider disabling non-essential content authentication features until patch availability; prepare rollback or alternative tooling as contingency should compromise be detected.
