Impact
ColdFusion accepts externally supplied URLs that are fetched by the server, allowing an attacker to direct the application to internal resources. The flaw is a Server‑Side Request Forgery (CWE‑918) that can elevate privileges; it does not require user interaction and changes the security scope.
Affected Systems
Adobe ColdFusion versions 2023 and 2025 are impacted.
Risk and Exploitability
The CVSS score of 8.6 indicates high severity. The EPSS score is below 1%, reflecting a low but non‑zero likelihood of exploitation, and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog. Attackers can exploit the flaw remotely by issuing crafted requests that cause the ColdFusion server to access arbitrary URLs, potentially exposing internal services or escalating privileged access.
