Vulnerability

Adobe Experience Manager(AEM) provides an interface called AEM Groovy console to run Groovy scripts. The Groovy scripts can be used to tamper contents in JCR, call OSGi services, or execute arbitrary code using AEM, Sling, or certain APIs in JCR.

Impact

If the groovy console is exposed, an attacker can perform RCE.

Mitigation / Precaution

  • We suggest you to update the AEM Groovy console to the latest version.

Febna once spent an entire evening arguing with an AI chatbot just to prove that machines can be confidently wrong. The debate ended with no clear winner, but it did spark her curiosity for the fascinating world of artificial intelligence. Today, she works at the intersection of AI and cybersecurity, helping build smarter systems while making sure they don’t become too smart for their own good. When she’s not exploring the future of technology, she’s probably asking “but what if?” one more time.
