Impact
A low-privileged local attacker can execute arbitrary code in the context of the user running ColdFusion. Exploitation requires convincing a user to open a malicious file.

CVSS v3.1 · CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H
Fix & remediation
Upgrade ColdFusion to the patched version referenced in Adobe advisory APSB26-144 once identified; as an interim mitigation, restrict low-privileged user file permissions and avoid opening untrusted files on the host.
AI-suggested. Run it in staging first and check it against the vendor advisory. Why?
