Description
Versions of Mura CMS prior to 10.0.712 contain a critical remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability. The flaw is located in the endpoint “/index.cfm/_api/json/v1/default”, where the “method” parameter in POST requests is not properly validated or sanitised before being processed by the ColdFusion engine. As a result, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to inject and execute arbitrary CFML (ColdFusion Markup Language) expressions and instantiate malicious Java objects, thereby compromising the system’s security.

Impact

A critical remote code execution flaw exists in the endpoint /index.cfm/_api/json/v1/default of Mura CMS versions prior to 10.0.712. The vulnerability arises because the "method" parameter in POST requests is not validated or sanitized before it is processed by the ColdFusion engine. This allows an attacker to inject and execute arbitrary CFML expressions or instantiate malicious Java objects, giving the attacker the ability to run arbitrary code with the privileges of the web application.

Affected Systems

The flaw affects Mura Software’s CMS, specifically installations running a version older than 10.0.712. No vendor product version beyond that is known to be impacted.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 9.3 indicates a critical severity, and the EPSS score of < 1% indicates a very low but non-zero probability of exploitation; the lack of a KEV listing suggests that exploitation is not yet widespread. The likely attack vector is a remote attacker sending a crafted POST request to the vulnerable endpoint, exploiting the unvalidated "method" parameter to execute arbitrary code. Because the vulnerability allows direct execution of CFML and Java objects, the impact can be complete compromise of the target system.

Remediation

Vendor Solution

No solution has been reported as yet.


OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Verify the current CMS version; if it is older than 10.0.712, plan an upgrade when a vendor patch becomes available.
  • Validate or whitelist the "method" parameter in /index.cfm/_api/json/v1/default to allow only known safe values, preventing injection of arbitrary CFML.
  • If the endpoint is not required, temporarily disable /index.cfm/_api/json/v1/default or restrict access to trusted IPs until a patch is released.
