CVE-2026-27304 is a critical improper input validation vulnerability in Adobe ColdFusion. It affects ColdFusion 2025 Update 6 and earlier and ColdFusion 2023 Update 18 and earlier. The flaw can be exploited without authentication and without user interaction, and may lead to arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user or ColdFusion process. Available reporting indicates the issue is associated with insufficient validation of attacker-controlled input within ColdFusion components including the administrator-related packages, enabling unauthorized variable manipulation and subsequent code execution. The vulnerability is classified as CWE-20 and has been assigned CVSS v3.1 vector AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:N with a base score of 9.3.
