CVE-2026-48349: Incorrect Authorization (CWE-863) in Adobe Adobe Animate 2023
Adobe Animate 2023 contains an Incorrect Authorization vulnerability (CWE-863) that can lead to arbitrary code execution with high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The exploit does not require user interaction but depends on conditions outside the attacker's control. The vulnerability changes the security scope, increasing potential impact.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-48349 is an Incorrect Authorization vulnerability in Adobe Animate 2023 that allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code in the context of the current user. The vulnerability does not require user interaction but depends on environmental conditions beyond the attacker's control. The scope of the vulnerability is changed, indicating that the impact extends beyond the initially vulnerable component. The CVSS v3.1 score is 8.1, reflecting high severity with local attack vector, high attack complexity, no privileges required, no user interaction, and high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation can result in arbitrary code execution with full control over the current user's context, potentially leading to complete compromise of user data and system integrity. The vulnerability affects confidentiality, integrity, and availability at a high level. However, exploitation requires local access and conditions beyond the attacker's control, which may limit the attack surface.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. No official fix or temporary workaround has been published by Adobe at this time. Users should monitor Adobe's security advisories for updates and apply patches once available.
