Thirty years ago, a pair of chemists made headlines around the world with their claim that they had achieved “cold fusion”: the production of energy using the same nuclear reaction that powers the sun, but at room temperature. If confirmed, the discovery could have transformed the global energy landscape overnight—but the chemists’ findings weren’t readily replicated. Swiftly labeled a lost cause by mainstream physics, attempts to spark cold fusion are now once again heating up, thanks to a stealth effort by the U.S. tech giant Google. In a review paper published in Nature on Monday, U.S. and Canadian researchers funded by Google publicly unveiled their efforts to reassess cold fusion. Like many other outside researchers, the Google team hasn’t found evidence of the phenomenon as… Source link

Adobe has issued an urgent out-of-band patch for a critical flaw in the ColdFusion web development platform it says is being exploited in the wild. The company’s APSB19-14 bulletin is light on detail but describes the issue as a “file upload restriction bypass” affecting ColdFusion 2018 update 2 and earlier, 2016 update 9 and earlier, and 17 and earlier: This attack requires the ability to upload executable code to a web-accessible directory, and then execute that code via an HTTP request.  Restricting requests to directories where uploaded files are stored will mitigate this attack. Who’s affected? According to a blog by one of those credited by Adobe for reporting the issue, Charlie Arehart, updating should be a particular concern to ColdFusion servers… Source link

Adobe Systems released an emergency update for the ColdFusion application server to fix a critical remote code execution that’s already being exploited by attackers. The vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2019-7816, is located in the upload functionality and is described as an upload restriction bypass. Attackers can exploit the flaw to upload executable code to a web-accessible directory and then execute it via an HTTP request. The flaw affects ColdFusion 11, 2016 and 2018 and successful exploitation results in arbitrary code execution with the privileges of the ColdFusion service. In addition to patching the flaw, Adobe has made several changes that can help mitigate this issue. It introduced a new application setting called blockedExtForFileUpload, added a new server option called… Source link

Adobe today released emergency updates that fix a critical vulnerability for the ColdFusion web app development platform. The bug can lead to arbitrary code execution and has been exploited in the wild. The security issue allows an attacker to bypass restrictions for uploading files. To take advantage of it, the adversary has to be able to upload executable code to a directory of files on a web server. The code can then be executed via an HTTP request, Adobe says in its security bulletin. Critical bug exploited All ColdFusion versions that do not have the current updates are affected by the vulnerability (CVE-2019-7816), regardless of the platforms they are for. Charlie Arehart, an independent consultant credited for reporting the vulnerability, told us that he discovered the bug… Source link
