Adobe Premiere Pro: Missing authentication for critical function
Summary
Adobe Premiere Pro contains a missing authentication check for a critical function, which allows an attacker to bypass security measures. A successful attacker can gain unauthorized write access to the file system. The CVSS vector requires local access, no privileges and no user interaction, and the scope is changed.
Affected
- Adobe Premiere 26.5.2 and earlier (Windows and macOS)
- Adobe Premiere 25.6.6 and earlier (Windows and macOS), as listed in the CVE record
Fixed in
- Adobe Premiere 26.5.3 (per CVE record)
- Adobe Premiere 27.0 for the 25.6.6 line (per CVE record)
- Unverified: the bulletin text could not be retrieved, and the earlier APSB26-157 bulletin listed 25.6.6 as a fix. Confirm the exact fixed builds in APSB26-101 before rollout.
Workaround
Unknown. No vendor workaround identified; apply the update.
Exploitation
- Adobe reports no known exploitation for the issues in APSB26-101.
- Not listed in CISA KEV (per Strix).
- No public proof of concept found (unverified).
Our recommendation
- Inventory all Premiere Pro installations on workstations used by creative or media staff.
- Update to the fixed build listed in APSB26-101 after verifying it.
- Prioritise systems that open project files or media from external parties.
- Restrict local access to affected workstations until they are patched.
Public exploits
PoC-in-GitHub, Metasploit and Exploit-DB list nothing for this CVE.
