A vulnerability has been identified in Adobe ColdFusion MX, which could be exploited by attackers to gain knowledge of sensitive information. This issue is due to an input validation when processing URLs containing a double encoded NULL byte and a valid extension (e.g. ".cfm"), which could be exploited by remote attackers to disclose the contents of arbitrary files on a vulnerable server.
