Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.42%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
ColdFusion 4.5 and 5, when running on Windows with the advanced security sandbox type set to "operating system," does not properly pass security context to (1) child processes created with <CFEXECUTE> and (2) child processes that call the CreateProcess function and are executed with <CFOBJECT> or end with the CFX extension, which allows attackers to execute programs with the permissions of the System account.
