Adobe has confirmed a proof-of-concept exploit for CVE-2024-53961, indicating that attackers can exploit this vulnerability. Users should update their ColdFusion installations immediately.

“Adobe is aware that CVE-2024-53961 has a known proof-of-concept that could cause an arbitrary file system read,” Adobe said today, while also cautioning customers that it assigned a “Priority 1” severity rating to the flaw because it has a “a higher risk of being targeted, by exploit(s) in the wild for a given product version and platform.”

CISA warned in May that software companies should fix path traversal security bugs before releasing products, as attackers can exploit these vulnerabilities to access sensitive data, including credentials used to breach accounts and systems.

In July 2023, CISA directed federal agencies to secure their Adobe ColdFusion servers by August 10th due to two critical vulnerabilities (CVE-2023-29298 and CVE-2023-38205), one of which was a zero-day exploit.

The U.S. cybersecurity agency reported a year ago that hackers had exploited a ColdFusion vulnerability (CVE-2023-26360) to access outdated government servers since June 2023. This flaw was also used in limited zero-day attacks since March 2023.
