ColdFusion versions 2025.2, 2023.14, 2021.20 and earlier are affected by an Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection') vulnerability that could lead to arbitrary code execution by a high-privileged attacker.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.49%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
