How the CVE Works
CVE-2025-47012 is a stored XSS vulnerability in Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) versions 6.5.22 and earlier. A low-privileged attacker can inject malicious JavaScript into vulnerable form fields, which persists in the system. When a victim accesses a page containing the compromised field, the script executes in their browser, potentially leading to session hijacking, data theft, or unauthorized actions. The attack exploits insufficient input sanitization in form submissions, allowing arbitrary script embedding.
