Summary
A Path Traversal vulnerability in ColdFusion versions 2025.9, 2023.20 and earlier allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code in the context of the current user without requiring user interaction. The issue stems from improper limitation of a pathname to a restricted directory.
Risk Assessment
An attacker can take control of the ColdFusion server by executing malicious code, leading to compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data and systems.
Recommendation
Immediately update ColdFusion to version 2025.10 or later (for the 2025 line) and 2023.21 or later (for the 2023 line). If patching is not possible, apply temporary workarounds recommended by Adobe.
