Summary

ColdFusion versions 2025.9, 2023.20 and earlier are affected by an Improper Input Validation vulnerability that could result in arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to inject malicious scripts into a web page, potentially gaining elevated access or control over the victim's account or session. Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction in that a victim must open a malicious file, and the scope is changed.

Risk Assessment

The risk for the organization includes potential account takeover, privilege escalation, and unauthorized code execution, which could compromise data confidentiality and integrity.

Recommendation

It is recommended to immediately update ColdFusion to a version later than 2025.9 or 2023.20, following vendor guidance, and implement input validation mechanisms along with restricting user interaction with untrusted files.
