Adobe ColdFusion < 2018.x < 2018u15 / 2021.x < 2021u5 Multiple Vulnerabilities (APSB22-44)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 166095

Synopsis

A web-based application running on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of Adobe ColdFusion installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 2018.x update 15 or 2021.x update 5. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the APSB22-44 advisory.

- Stack-based Buffer Overflow (CWE-121) potentially leading to Arbitrary code execution (CVE-2022-35690, CVE-2022-35710)

- Heap-based Buffer Overflow (CWE-122) potentially leading to Arbitrary code execution (CVE-2022-35711, CVE-2022-35712)

- Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') potentially leading to Arbitrary code execution (CVE-2022-38418, CVE-2022-38421)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update to Adobe ColdFusion version 2018 update 15 / 2021 update 5 or later.
