Arbitrary file read via injected internal URLs
Published Jul 8, 2025 · Updated Jul 9, 2025
SSRF in Adobe ColdFusion 2025.2, 2023.14, and 2021.20 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to read arbitrary files. An undisclosed component accepts injected URLs and makes arbitrary server-side requests to destinations restricted to internal IP addresses. High-privilege access is required, but no user interaction is needed; successful exploitation exposes file contents without write or service-interruption claims.
