CVE-2025-30286: 
Adobe ColdFusion vulnerability analysis and mitigation

ColdFusion versions 2023.12, 2021.18, 2025.0 and earlier are affected by an Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection') vulnerability. This vulnerability could lead to arbitrary code execution by an attacker, and notably, exploitation does not require user interaction (NVD, CVE).

The vulnerability is classified as CWE-78 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command). It has received a Critical CVSS v3.1 base score of 9.8 from NIST (Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H), while Adobe Systems assigned it a High severity score of 8.0 (Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H) (NVD).

The vulnerability enables arbitrary code execution on affected systems, which could potentially allow attackers to take complete control of the target system. This represents a significant security risk as it requires no user interaction for exploitation (Hacker News).

Adobe has released patches to address this vulnerability. Users should update to ColdFusion 2021 Update 19, ColdFusion 2023 Update 13, or ColdFusion 2025 Update 1 to mitigate the risk (Hacker News).
