ColdFusion MX 6.1 and 6.1 J2EE allows local users to bypass sandbox security restrictions and obtain sensitive information by using Java reflection methods to access trusted Java objects without using the CreateObject function or cfobject tag.

Weakness

The product uses external input with reflection to select which classes or code to use, but it does not sufficiently prevent the input from selecting improper classes or code.
