Impact
ColdFusion versions 2023.19, 2025.8 and earlier contain an improper input validation flaw that allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the current user. The vulnerability does not require user interaction and changes the scope of the affected system, giving attackers the potential to seize full control of the application or underlying operating system.
Affected Systems
Adobe ColdFusion products: versions 2023.19, 2025.8 and any earlier releases; newer releases beyond 2025.8 are not affected according to the advisory.
Risk and Exploitability
The CVSS score of 9.6 indicates critical severity, and the lack of a listed KEV entry suggests the vulnerability is not yet widely documented in known exploit kits. The attack vector is inferred to be remote network-based, as the flaw can be triggered through crafted input to exposed ColdFusion services without any user interaction, making it suitable for automated exploitation.
