Critical CVSS 10
CVE-2026-48283
ColdFusion versions 2025.9, 2023.20 and earlier are affected by an Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type vulnerability that could result in arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user. Exploitation of this issue does not require user interaction. Scope is changed.
What this means
- Exposure
- Exploitable remotely over the network, without authentication and with no action from the victim.
- Impact
- An attacker can read sensitive data, modify or destroy data and take the service offline. The impact spreads beyond the vulnerable component into other parts of the system.
- Weakness
- Upload accepts a dangerous file type, often one the server will execute.
- Likelihood
- Its EPSS score puts short-term exploitation in a middle band: neither negligible nor imminent.
