Adobe ColdFusion is prone to a cross-site scripting vulnerability because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input.

An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary script code in the context of the affected website. This may allow the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials and to launch other attacks.
