Description

Adobe ColdFusion 9.0, 9.0.1, 9.0.2, and 10 allows remote
attackers to bypass authentication using the RDS component. Due to
default settings or misconfiguration, its password can be set to an
empty value. This allows an attacker to create a session via the RDS
login that can be carried over to the admin web interface even though
the passwords might be different, and therefore bypassing authentication
on the admin web interface leading to arbitrary code execution. Tested
on Windows and Linux with ColdFusion 9.
