Summary
Adobe Experience Manager contains a code injection flaw that lets a low-privileged attacker run arbitrary code with the privileges of the current user. The attacker can reach it remotely over the network after logging in with a basic account, and no user interaction is needed.

Read the original description
Adobe Experience Manager is affected by an Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection') vulnerability that could result in arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user. A low-privileged attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code. Exploitation of this issue does not require user interaction. Scope is changed.
Who should check
Teams running Adobe Experience Manager as a Cloud Service, or AEM 6.5 or 6.5 LTS on-premises or self-managed

Check your systems with an agent
Paste this into a coding or ops agent. It checks your systems read-only and reports a table per asset.
Check whether my systems are affected by CVE-2026-113579 (Adobe Experience Manager | Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection') (CWE-94)), using the cve.now data below.
Rules: work read-only. Do not run exploit code, proof-of-concept scripts or scanners that send attack payloads, and do not change any configuration, package, image or deployment. Report findings only.
What cve.now has for CVE-2026-113579 (entry last updated 2026-11-10):
Affected:
- Adobe Adobe Experience Manager as a Cloud Service: through 2026.10.29023

Fixed versions: 2026.10.29251.
Conditions (all must be true for the bug to be hit):
- Adobe Experience Manager as a Cloud Service at version 2026.10.29023 or earlier (source: https://www.adobe.com/trust/security/products/experience-manager/apsb26-189.html)
- Adobe Experience Manager 6.5 at Service Pack 25 or earlier (source: https://www.adobe.com/trust/security/products/experience-manager/apsb26-189.html)
- Adobe Experience Manager 6.5 LTS at Service Pack 3 or earlier (source: https://www.adobe.com/trust/security/products/experience-manager/apsb26-189.html)
Setup: unknown whether the bug needs a non-default feature or setting. Check the advisory.
Attacker needs: network access, low-privilege login, no user action.
CISA KEV: CVE-2026-113579 is not listed as of cve.now's last read.
This KEV status is for CVE-2026-113579 only. If you also check another CVE, look up its own KEV status; never assume it from this one.
How to check:
- Installed software: check what is actually running, not what a repo declares. Read the version from each host, container image and Kubernetes node (the binary's version output, the OS package database, image layers), and check whether the conditions above hold there. Distribution packages may carry a backported fix under an older version number; confirm against the distribution's own advisory.
Verify against the linked advisories before concluding, and cite the date you read each one:
- https://www.adobe.com/trust/security/products/experience-manager/apsb26-189.html
Do not conclude an asset is unaffected unless you checked it and the evidence covers both its version and the conditions above. If you could not check something, mark it unknown and say what is missing.
Report a table with one row per asset and these columns: Asset | Version or build | Status (affected, fixed, not applicable, unknown) | Compensating controls | Exposure (internet-facing, internal, none) | Evidence | Next action.

Questions about CVE-2026-113579
Is CVE-2026-113579 being exploited?
It is not in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, and CISA's SSVC assessment does not mark exploitation as active. That does not mean it has not been attacked: vendors and researchers can report attacks before CISA lists them. No public exploit code is tracked.Source: cve.now feed data
What does this mean?
A code injection flaw lets an attacker get code injected and run on the server, which the advisory describes as arbitrary code execution. The advisory's facts do not describe how the injection is triggered.Source: adobe.com
Which versions are affected by CVE-2026-113579?
Adobe Experience Manager as a Cloud Service: through 2026.10.29023. Adobe Experience Manager 6.5: through 6.5.25. Adobe Experience Manager 6.5 LTS: through 6.5 LTS SP3.Source: cve.now feed data
Am I affected, and how do I check?
Adobe Experience Manager as a Cloud Service at version 2026.10.29023 or earlier, Adobe Experience Manager 6.5 at Service Pack 25 or earlier, and Adobe Experience Manager 6.5 LTS at Service Pack 3 or earlier are listed as affected. To check a deployment, compare its AEM version or service pack against these listed versions.Source: adobe.com
How do I fix CVE-2026-113579?
For AEM as a Cloud Service, upgrade to version 2026.10.29251 or later, which the advisory lists as the fixed release. The advisory does not give a fixed release for AEM 6.5 or 6.5 LTS in the checked facts.Source: adobe.com
