Description:
Two vulnerabilities have been reported in Adobe ColdFusion MX, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks.

1) Input passed to certain parameters is not properly sanitised before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected site.

Successful exploitation requires that Global Script Protection is not enabled.

2) Input passed to certain parameters is not properly sanitised before being returned to the user via a ColdFusion error page. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected site.

Adobe ColdFusion MX 7 and ColdFusion MX 6 are reportedly affected by one or both vulnerabilities.

Solution:
Apply patches (please see vendor's advisory for details).
