Code execution via undisclosed access-control bypass
Published Apr 8, 2025 · Updated Feb 26, 2026
Improper access control in Adobe ColdFusion 2023.12, 2021.18, 2025.0 and earlier allows local users to bypass security controls. Adobe has not disclosed the affected component or the access-control operation that improperly accepts attacker-influenced actions. Exploitation requires low privileges, local access, and victim interaction, and successful exploitation executes code across a changed security boundary.
