Adobe Campaign is a well-known marketing automation tool used globally by businesses to manage and distribute customer-focused marketing campaigns. Organizations utilize it to execute personalized cross-channel engagements and to manage complex campaign workflows efficiently. Marketers and digital teams highly value its integration capabilities, which allow seamless user tracking and data collection. The tool is widely employed in various industries including retail, finance, and telecommunications, where user engagement and personalized interactions are prioritized. Security features such as content security policies are often implemented to safeguard sensitive campaign data and user information. Therefore, maintaining the integrity of security protocols within Adobe Campaign is crucial for business continuity and customer trust.

The vulnerability detected in Adobe Campaign is a Content-Security-Policy (CSP) bypass. CSP is a security feature that helps mitigate attacks such as Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) by controlling the resources that can be loaded on a website. A CSP bypass allows an attacker to execute unauthorized scripts or make requests to unauthorized resources within the Adobe Campaign environment. This issue can enable various types of attacks, impacting both the integrity of user data and the security of the campaign environment. CSP bypass vulnerabilities are typically leveraged by attackers to manipulate content and execute arbitrary code within the application, leading to potential widespread data breaches.

Technical details of the CSP bypass involve the manipulation of HTTP headers and the injection of scripts, which circumvent the intended policies set by CSP. Vulnerable endpoints often include those accessible via GET methods, where headers like "Content-Security-Policy" can be deceitfully structured. The vulnerable parameters are typically within scripts or external resources that are loaded via the application interface, where malicious scripts can be injected. In this specific instance, examples demonstrate how a crafted script can be loaded through Adobe Campaign's infrastructure to trigger an alert function, indicating the vulnerability. Such technical bypass can be executed by encoding payloads and utilizing header conditions that are trusted or mistakenly validated by CSP mechanisms.

If the CSP bypass is exploited, attackers could execute unauthorized scripts leading to various adverse effects including data theft, session hijacking, and increased vulnerability to further cyber attacks. The impact extends to compromising the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of user data and marketing assets. Moreover, stakeholders could face significant reputational damage and potential regulatory fines should sensitive data be leaked due to this vulnerability. The unauthorized alteration or stealing of sensitive campaign information could also disrupt the marketing strategies of the affected companies, leading to financial losses.
