HIGH 8.4

DescriptionCVE.org

ColdFusion versions 2023.18, 2025.6 and earlier are affected by an Improper Input Validation vulnerability that could result in arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user. Attacker requires elevated privileges. Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction in that a victim must open a malicious file.

AnalysisAI

Arbitrary code execution in Adobe ColdFusion 2023.18, 2025.6 and earlier allows authenticated attackers with high privileges to execute malicious code through improper input validation. Exploitation requires user interaction (victim opening a malicious file). EPSS data not available; no confirmed active exploitation (not in CISA KEV). CVSS 8.4 reflects high impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability with scope change, though real-world risk is constrained by requiring both elevated privileges and user interaction.

Technical ContextAI

Adobe ColdFusion is a commercial rapid web application development platform. This vulnerability (CWE-20: Improper Input Validation) stems from insufficient validation of input data, allowing specially crafted files to bypass security controls and execute arbitrary code when processed by the application. The CVSS vector indicates Adjacent Network attack vector (AV:A), meaning the attacker must be on the same network segment as the target. The Scope change (S:C) indicates the vulnerability can affect resources beyond its security scope, suggesting potential container escape or privilege escalation beyond the immediate ColdFusion process context. The combination of improper input validation and file processing suggests the flaw may exist in ColdFusion's file upload, template processing, or administrative interface components.

RemediationAI

Apply Adobe's security updates immediately by upgrading to the patched versions specified in APSB26-38. For ColdFusion 2023, upgrade to the version newer than 2023.18 as specified in the bulletin. For ColdFusion 2025, upgrade to the version newer than 2025.6 as specified in the bulletin. Download patches from Adobe's official distribution channels. As interim risk reduction measures: restrict administrative access to ColdFusion to trusted networks only, implement strict file upload validation at network perimeter, educate privileged users about risks of opening untrusted files in ColdFusion context, and monitor administrative sessions for suspicious file processing activity.
