Critical Adobe Campaign Classic flaw gives unauthenticated attackers code execution

Adobe patched a critical flaw in Campaign Classic, its enterprise marketing automation platform, that can let an attacker run code without any user interaction. Tracked as CVE-2026-48449 and scored 10.0, it is an incorrect authorization issue leading to arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user. The same update fixes a high-severity SQL injection flaw that allows arbitrary file reads. Affected versions are Campaign Classic v7 build 9397 and earlier on Windows and Linux, mostly on-premises and hybrid deployments, with a fix in build 9398. Adobe says it is not aware of exploitation, and separately patched eight critical flaws in Adobe Bridge.

Check
Identify on-premises or hybrid Adobe Campaign Classic instances, confirm the build number, and update to 7.4.3 build 9398, prioritizing any instance reachable from untrusted networks.
Affected
Organizations running Adobe Campaign Classic v7 build 9397 or earlier (CVE-2026-48449); the incorrect authorization flaw allows code execution with no user interaction, and a companion flaw enables arbitrary file reads.
Fix
Apply Adobe's update to build 9398, restrict access to the Campaign Classic interface, and review the server for unexpected code execution or file access, since the flaw needs no interaction to exploit.

Attackers now exploiting a critical ColdFusion flaw Adobe patched last week

One of the critical ColdFusion vulnerabilities Adobe patched last week is now being exploited in the wild. The flaw, CVE-2026-48282, is a path-traversal issue rated 10.0 that lets an attacker run arbitrary code on a ColdFusion server, and it was among seven top-severity bugs Adobe fixed in ColdFusion 2025 and 2023. Adobe had flagged the update as high priority given ColdFusion's history as an attacker and ransomware target, and exploitation has followed quickly. Organizations that had not yet applied the update are now in an active-threat window, especially any ColdFusion servers reachable from the internet, which are the most exposed to opportunistic attacks.

Check
Confirm whether your ColdFusion 2025 and 2023 servers have last week's update applied, prioritize any that are internet-facing, and review logs and the filesystem for signs of exploitation or web shells.
Affected
ColdFusion 2025 and 2023 servers still missing last week's update (CVE-2026-48282); an attacker can use the path-traversal flaw to run code on the server, and exploitation is now underway.
Fix
Apply ColdFusion 2025 Update 10 and 2023 Update 21 immediately, restrict ColdFusion from direct internet exposure, and run a compromise assessment on any server that was unpatched while exploitation was occurring.

Adobe patches seven critical code execution flaws in ColdFusion and Campaign Classic

Adobe has released patches for seven critical, top-rated code execution vulnerabilities in its ColdFusion web application platform and Campaign Classic marketing tool. Six of the flaws affect ColdFusion 2025 and 2023 and stem from unrestricted file uploads, improper input validation, and path traversal, each allowing arbitrary code execution; the seventh, in Campaign Classic, is an authorization flaw with the same impact on on-premises installations. All can be exploited in low-complexity attacks without user interaction. Adobe says it is not aware of any active exploitation but assigned its highest deployment priority, urging admins to patch quickly, since ColdFusion has repeatedly been targeted by attackers and ransomware crews.

Check
Identify ColdFusion 2025 and 2023 servers and on-premises Campaign Classic instances, confirm their update levels, and prioritize any that are internet-facing for immediate patching.
Affected
ColdFusion 2025 and 2023 before Update 10 and Update 21, and on-premises Adobe Campaign Classic before build 9397; unauthenticated or low-privilege attackers can achieve arbitrary code execution in low-complexity attacks.
Fix
Install ColdFusion 2025 Update 10, ColdFusion 2023 Update 21, and Campaign Classic build 9397 within days, as Adobe advises, and restrict these platforms from direct internet exposure where possible.
