2DescriptionCVE.org
Adobe Connect is affected by an Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') vulnerability that could lead to arbitrary file system read. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to access sensitive files and directories outside the intended access scope. Exploitation of this issue does not require user interaction. Scope is changed.
AnalysisAI
Unauthenticated path traversal in Adobe Connect (and its Android mobile app component) lets a remote attacker read files outside the intended access scope on a network-reachable deployment. Per Adobe's CVSS 3.1 vector (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:N, 8.6), the attack needs no credentials and no user interaction, so an internet-exposed default installation is directly targetable; our independent assessment keeps the same network/low-complexity/no-auth/no-interaction profile but treats scope as Unchanged and stresses that impact is limited to reading files accessible to the Connect service account, with no write, no code execution, and no availability impact. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation targets a network-reachable Adobe Connect instance (web server, and per CPE also the Adobe Connect Android mobile app). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:N = 8.6) describes a network-reachable, low-complexity, unauthenticated path traversal requiring no user interaction, which on paper is a high-priority signal. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | Consult Adobe security bulletin APSB26-150 (https://helpx.adobe.com/security/products/connect/apsb26-150.html) and apply the vendor's fixed build for Adobe Connect and the Adobe Connect Android Mobile App as directed there; no vendor-released patch version is identified in the data available at time of analysis, so do not rely on any specific version string other than the one Adobe publishes in that bulletin, and validate after upgrading by re-testing a traversal payload against a non-production instance. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours, inventory all Adobe Connect deployments, including the Android mobile app component, and identify which are internet-facing; immediately restrict external access via firewall rules, VPN-only access, or an allow-listed reverse proxy, and confirm the Connect service account operates under least-privilege with no access to sensitive file shares. …
