ADOBE WARNS CUSTOMERS OF A CRITICAL COLDFUSION RCE EXPLOITED IN ATTACKS

July 17, 2023  By Pierluigi Paganini




ADOBE IS WARNING CUSTOMERS OF A CRITICAL COLDFUSION PRE-AUTHENTICATION RCE BUG,
TRACKED AS CVE-2023-29300, WHICH IS ACTIVELY EXPLOITED.

Adobe warns customers of a critical ColdFusion pre-authentication remote code
execution vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2023-29300 (CVSS score 9.8), that is
actively exploited in attacks in the wild.

“Adobe is aware that CVE-2023-29300 has been exploited in the wild in very
limited attacks targeting Adobe ColdFusion,” reads a statement sent by the
company to its customers.

An unauthenticated visitor can exploit the vulnerability to remotely execute
commands on vulnerable Coldfusion 2018, 2021, and 2023 servers.

The issue is a deserialization of untrusted data that was discovered by the
security researcher Nicolas Zilio from CrowdStrike.

Adobe has not disclosed the technical details of the issue either the way threat
actors exploited it in the wild.

Adobe addressed a total of three vulnerabilities in ColdFusion, below the
complete list of fixed issues:

In March 2023, U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA)
added a critical vulnerability in Adobe ColdFusion, tracked
as CVE-2023-26360 (CVSS score: 8.6), to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities
Catalog.

The flaw is an Improper Access Control that can allow a remote attacker to
execute arbitrary code. The vulnerability could also lead to arbitrary file
system read and memory leak.
