Adobe releases May 2026 patches for multiple products

Summary

Adobe's May 2026 security updates address critical, important, and moderate vulnerabilities across 10 product families — including Adobe Commerce, Connect, Premiere Pro, After Effects, Illustrator, and other. The most severe flaws (up to CVSS 9.6) enable arbitrary code execution, privilege escalation, and deserialization attacks. No exploits are known to be active in the wild, but users are urged to update immediately.

Take Action:

If you use any Adobe products, prioritize updating Adobe Commerce, Magento Open Source, and Adobe Connect immediately, as they contain critical vulnerabilities with the highest severity scores (up to 9.6) that could lead to arbitrary code execution, privilege escalation, and security feature bypass. Then update the rest of your Adobe software, especially Creative Cloud applications (Premiere Pro, Media Encoder, After Effects, Illustrator, Substance 3D Painter, and Substance 3D Sampler), which all have critical code execution flaws. If you can't update right away, avoid opening untrusted files in affected applications and restrict network access to Commerce and Connect servers until patches are applied.
