1 technique across 1 tactic: Defense Evasion The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Requires a valid low-privileged authenticated Oracle E-Business Suite account with network/HTTP access to the Oracle Applications Framework Personalization component, on affected versions 12.2.3 through 12.2.14. Exploitation is limited by the authentication requirement (PR:L) and by the bounded impact - only unauthorized insert/update/delete to SOME OAF-accessible data (I:L), with no confidentiality or availability consequence. No special non-default configuration or user interaction is required beyond holding an account. |
| Impact | This is a low-severity, low-real-risk issue despite affecting a major enterprise product. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 4.3 (MEDIUM) with vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N - network-reachable and low-complexity, but requiring an existing low-privileged authenticated account (PR:L) and yielding only a limited integrity impact (I:L: unauthorized update/insert/delete to SOME accessible data), with no confidentiality or availability impact. EPSS is low at 0.24% (14th percentile), there is no CISA KEV listing, and no public exploit was identified, so all exploitation signals are consistent and point to low probability. No SSVC decision data was provided. There are no conflicting signals here: the CVSS vector, EPSS, and absence of KEV/POC all agree this is a bounded, authenticated integrity flaw rather than a priority emergency. The CWE (CWE-284 Improper Access Control) is consistent with an authenticated privilege/authorization weakness rather than a remote takeover. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker who already holds a low-privileged Oracle E-Business Suite account (e.g. a self-service or internal user) sends crafted HTTP requests to the Oracle Applications Framework Personalization component to make unauthorized update, insert, or delete changes to a subset of OAF-accessible data. No public exploit code was identified, and the impact is limited to partial data integrity (no data disclosure, no service disruption). |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 01, 2026
Low-privileged authenticated users of Oracle E-Business Suite 12.2.3 through 12.2.14 can perform unauthorized insert, update, or delete operations against data reachable through the Oracle Applications Framework (OAF) Personalization component. Exploitation requires a valid low-privileged EBS account with HTTP network access, causes no loss of confidentiality or availability, and is bounded to a partial integrity impact (CVSS 3.1 base 4.3, CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N). No public exploit code has been identified and EPSS is minimal at 0.24% (14th percentile), so this is a low-real-risk access-control weakness rather than an actively exploited or remotely unauthenticated threat; Oracle addresses it in its October 2025 Critical Patch Update.
RemediationAI
Apply the Oracle Critical Patch Update for October 2025 (patch available per vendor advisory at https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpuoct2025.html) to bring affected E-Business Suite 12.2.3-12.2.14 environments to the patched level; this is the only complete fix and Oracle has not published an independent workaround. Until patching completes, reduce exposure by restricting which EBS responsibilities and users can access OAF Personalization screens, enforcing least privilege on customization roles, and limiting HTTP access to the EBS application tier to trusted network ranges via firewall or reverse-proxy allow-lists - noting that aggressive access restriction can break legitimate self-service and administrative personalization workflows. Additional compensating controls include auditing and alerting on unexpected OAF personalization changes (new or modified page definitions) and monitoring application logs for anomalous POST/update traffic from low-privileged accounts, though these are detective rather than preventive and do not remove the underlying improper access control.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The Oracle Applications Framework (OAF) is the Java-based MVC framework that renders and controls the majority of Oracle E-Business Suite 12.2 self-service and administrative pages, including the runtime Personalization layer that lets users or administrators modify page layouts, regions, items, and behavior without recompiling code. CVE-2025-53064 is classified under CWE-284 (Improper Access Control), meaning the Personalization functionality does not adequately enforce authorization checks on the operations it exposes, so a user holding only low privileges can reach actions that should be reserved for more trusted roles. The CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N) confirms the key constraints from the independent assessment: network reachability over HTTP, no attack complexity or user interaction, but a hard authentication prerequisite (PR:L) and impact confined to a partial integrity effect within the same security scope - no read access to sensitive data and no denial of service. The CPE string cpe:2.3:a:oracle:applications_framework applies to the framework component across the entire supported 12.2.x line rather than to a single patch level.
