Security News > 2023 > August > Critical Adobe ColdFusion Flaw Added to CISA's Exploited Vulnerability Catalog

The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency has added a critical security flaw in Adobe ColdFusion to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, based on evidence of active exploitation.
The vulnerability, cataloged as CVE-2023-26359, relates to a deserialization flaw present in Adobe ColdFusion 2018 and ColdFusion 2021 that could result in arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user without requiring any interaction.
It was patched by Adobe as part of updates issued in March 2023.
As of writing, it's immediately not clear how the flaw is being abused in the wild.
That said, the development comes more than five months after CISA placed another flaw impacting the same product to the KEV catalog.
Adobe said it's aware of the weakness being exploited in "Very limited attacks" aimed at ColdFusion.
