Two vulnerabilities have been identified in Adobe Macromedia ColdFusion, which could be exploited by attackers to cause a denial of service or bypass security restrictions.

The first flaw is due to an error when processing malformed commands sent to the ColdFusion Flash Remoting Gateway, which could be exploited by remote attackers to cause an infinite loop, creating a denial of service condition.

The second issue is due to an error when handling and executing codes within a sandbox, which could be exploited by malicious users to bypass security restrictions and call components (CFC) within a sandbox from CFML templates outside a sandbox.
