Question

Hello, Is it permissible on Shabbat for a person to pour cold water into a cup and then pour boiling water from a secondary vessel over it to heat it? And is it permissible from a primary vessel?

Answer

Hello 

It is permissible to pour water from a secondary vessel over it. 

Since water is not easily cooked, it does not cook in a secondary vessel. Certainly, it does not cook when poured from a secondary vessel.
