3Description
ColdFusion versions 2025.2, 2023.14, 2021.20 and earlier are affected by an Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection') vulnerability that could lead to arbitrary code execution by a high-privileged attacker. Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction and scope is changed. The vulnerable component is restricted to internal IP addresses.
Analysis
ColdFusion versions 2025.2, 2023.14, 2021.20 and earlier are affected by an Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection') vulnerability that could lead to arbitrary code execution by a high-privileged attacker. Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction and scope is changed. The vulnerable component is restricted to internal IP addresses.
Technical Context
Command injection allows an attacker to execute arbitrary OS commands on the host system through a vulnerable application that passes user input to system shells. This vulnerability is classified as OS Command Injection (CWE-78).
Affected Products
Affected products: Adobe Coldfusion 2021
Remediation
Avoid passing user input to system commands. Use language-specific APIs instead of shell commands. If unavoidable, use strict input validation and escaping.
