Reflected XSS in Adobe ColdFusion (2023.5/2021.11 and earlier)
Adobe ColdFusion versions 2023.5 and earlier and 2021.11 and earlier contain a reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability. An unauthenticated attacker can craft a URL referencing a vulnerable ColdFusion page such that attacker-supplied input is reflected into the HTTP response without proper output encoding, resulting in execution of arbitrary JavaScript in the victim’s browser within the security context of the affected application origin.
