MITRE ATT&CK
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 | Exploitation requires the attacker to hold a valid low-privileged authenticated session (CVSS PR:L) to the Oracle REST Data Services Database Actions component, reachable over HTTP (AV:N). No victim user interaction is needed (UI:N) and attack complexity is low (AC:L). The key limiting factors are: (1) the attacker must already possess credentials or an authenticated foothold with at least low privileges in ORDS - purely unauthenticated anonymous exploitation is not supported by the vector; and (2) the Database Actions component must be network-exposed and enabled. Impact is bounded to partial access (C:L/I:L/A:L) within a subset of ORDS-accessible data, not full database compromise. |
| Impact | This is a moderate-severity, authenticated vulnerability best characterized as a genuine-but-not-urgent patch priority rather than an emergency. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 6.3 (MEDIUM) with vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L: network-reachable over HTTP, low attack complexity, but requiring low-level privileges (PR:L) and yielding only partial (Low) confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact with no scope change. No EPSS score was provided in the input, so exploitation probability cannot be quantified. The CVE is NOT listed in CISA KEV and no public proof-of-concept is referenced, so there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis. No SSVC decision data was supplied. The signals are internally consistent - Oracle's own description ('Easily exploitable... low privileged attacker with network access via HTTP') aligns cleanly with AV:N/AC:L/PR:L, so there is no network-vs-local contradiction to flag. The main limiting factor is the PR:L requirement: an attacker must already hold some authenticated, low-privileged access to Database Actions, which bounds real-world risk and points toward opportunistic or insider abuse rather than mass unauthenticated exploitation. Missing EPSS/SSVC data means the real-world exploitation likelihood is unconfirmed and should be treated as unknown rather than low. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | A low-privileged user who already has authenticated HTTP access to the Database Actions component of Oracle REST Data Services sends crafted requests that exceed their authorization boundary, gaining limited read access to some ORDS-accessible data and the ability to insert, update, or delete a subset of it, and to partially degrade the service. No public exploit code is referenced, and no user interaction by a victim is required. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 21, 2026
Authenticated low-privileged users of Oracle REST Data Services (ORDS) 24.2.0 through 26.1.0 can, over HTTP, read and modify a subset of Database Actions-accessible data and cause a partial denial of service against the service. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L, base 6.3) confirms the attacker must already hold a valid low-privileged session; no victim interaction is required. No public exploit code or confirmed active exploitation (CISA KEV) was identified at time of analysis, making this a moderate, authenticated patch priority rather than an emergency.
RemediationAI
Apply the Oracle Critical Patch Update for October 2026, which addresses CVE-2026-101375 in ORDS Database Actions for versions 24.2.0 through 26.1.0; consult https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpuoct2026.html for the exact patched release for your 24.2.x through 26.1.0 deployment, as a specific fixed version number is not stated in the available data (patch status: available per vendor advisory). Where immediate patching is not possible, reduce exposure by restricting network access to the Database Actions endpoints to trusted administrative networks or VPN, or disabling Database Actions entirely if it is not in use; the trade-off is loss of browser-based SQL/development functionality for legitimate users. Enforce least privilege so that accounts hold only the ORDS roles actually required, since the vector requires only low privileges and this limits the blast radius of misuse, and monitor ORDS and database audit logs for anomalous update, insert, delete, or read activity from low-privileged sessions.

Technical ContextAI · show details
Oracle REST Data Services is a Java-based middleware layer that publishes RESTful endpoints and the Database Actions web interface in front of Oracle Database; the affected component is Database Actions. The vulnerability class is not disclosed (CWE not assigned in the source data), but the assessed vector shows a server-side authorization or input-handling weakness in an HTTP-reachable Database Actions endpoint that a low-privileged authenticated user can exercise with low attack complexity and no user interaction. Scope is unchanged, and impact is bounded to partial confidentiality, integrity, and availability loss (C:L/I:L/A:L) within a subset of data reachable through ORDS rather than full database compromise. Exploitation therefore depends on two prerequisites: valid low-privileged ORDS credentials or an equivalent authenticated foothold, and network exposure of the Database Actions component.

DescriptionCVE.org
Vulnerability in Oracle REST Data Services (component: Database Actions). Supported versions that are affected are 24.2.0-26.1.0. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle REST Data Services. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized update, insert or delete access to some of Oracle REST Data Services accessible data as well as unauthorized read access to a subset of Oracle REST Data Services accessible data and unauthorized ability to cause a partial denial of service (partial DOS) of Oracle REST Data Services. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 6.3 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L).
