CVE-2026-27308: Uncontrolled Resource Consumption (CWE-400) in Adobe ColdFusion
Adobe ColdFusion versions 2023. 18, 2025. 6, and earlier contain an Uncontrolled Resource Consumption vulnerability (CWE-400) that can be exploited by a high-privileged attacker to cause application denial-of-service by exhausting system resources. Exploitation does not require user interaction. The vulnerability has a low CVSS score of 2. 4, indicating limited impact primarily on availability without confidentiality or integrity effects. No official patch or remediation guidance is currently available from the vendor, and no known exploits are reported in the wild.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-27308 is an Uncontrolled Resource Consumption vulnerability affecting Adobe ColdFusion versions 2023.18, 2025.6, and earlier. A high-privileged attacker can exploit this issue without user interaction to exhaust system resources, leading to degraded application performance or denial-of-service. The vulnerability is classified under CWE-400 and has a CVSS v3.1 base score of 2.4, reflecting low severity with attack vector requiring adjacent network access and high privileges. No official remediation or patch has been documented at this time.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation results in reduced application speed or denial-of-service conditions due to resource exhaustion. There is no impact on confidentiality or integrity. The attacker must have high privileges and network adjacency to exploit this vulnerability. No known active exploitation has been reported.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the Adobe vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, limit high-privileged access and monitor resource usage to detect potential abuse. No vendor-provided temporary fixes or workarounds are currently documented.
