Security Advisory for ColdFusion
Release date: January 4, 2013
Vulnerability identifier: APSA13-01
Priority rating: 1
CVE number: CVE-2013-0625, CVE-2013-0629, CVE-2013-0631
Platform: All
SUMMARY
Adobe has identified three vulnerabilities affecting ColdFusion for Windows,
Macintosh and UNIX:
* CVE-2013-0625 affects ColdFusion 10, 9.0.2, 9.0.1 and 9.0, and could permit
an unauthorized user to remotely circumvent authentication controls,
potentially allowing the attacker to take control of the affected server.
* CVE-2013-0629 affects ColdFusion 10, 9.0.2, 9.0.1 and 9.0, and could permit
an unauthorized user access to restricted directories.
* CVE-2013-0631 affects ColdFusion 9.0.2, 9.0.1 and 9.0, and could result in
information disclosure from a compromised server.
There are reports that these vulnerabilities are being exploited in the wild
against ColdFusion customers. Note that CVE-2013-0625 and CVE-2013-0629 only
affect ColdFusion customers who do not have password protection enabled or
have no password set.
We are in the process of finalizing a fix for the issues and expect a hotfix
for ColdFusion 10, 9.0.2, 9.0.1 and 9.0 for Windows, Macintosh and UNIX will
be available on January 15, 2013.
AFFECTED SOFTWARE VERSIONS
ColdFusion 10, 9.0.2, 9.0.1 and 9.0 for Windows, Macintosh and UNIX
MITIGATIONS
Adobe recommends ColdFusion customers take the following steps to mitigate
these vulnerabilities:
* Configure a username and password for Remote Development Services (RDS).
These credentials should be different from the Administrator account. After
configuring the username and password, users should disable RDS.
* Disable external access to the following directories for all hosted sites:
/CFIDE/administrator
/CFIDE/adminapi
/CFIDE/componentutils
* Remove any unknown or unnecessary ColdFusion components or templates from
the CFIDE or webroot directories.
* Implement access control restrictions for the Administrator interface and
internal applications via the Administrator Console (in ColdFusion version 10)
or within your web server's access control mechanisms for versions 9.0.2 and
below.
* Ensure your ColdFusion product has the latest hotfix applied.
* Refer to the ColdFusion 9 Lockdown Guide and ColdFusion 10 Lockdown Guide
for security best practices and further information on these hardening
techniques.
