High CVSS 8.8

CVE-2026-71386

Adobe Coldfusion

is affected by a Cross-site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability that could result in arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code. The vulnerable component is restricted to an administrative network zone by default. Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction in that a victim must open a malicious file. Scope is changed.

What this means

Exposure
Exploitable from the adjacent network and without authentication — but only if a user opens booby-trapped content.
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
Attacker-supplied script runs in other users’ browsers (cross-site scripting).
Likelihood
Its EPSS score puts short-term exploitation in a middle band: neither negligible nor imminent.
