Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires network HTTP reachability to an Oracle REST Data Services Core endpoint and a valid low-privilege account on the target (CVSS PR:L) - it is NOT exploitable by a fully unauthenticated attacker. No user interaction is needed (UI:N) and attack complexity is low (AC:L). The impact is limited to unauthorized read access to a subset of ORDS-accessible data (C:L), with the scope change (S:C) meaning disclosed data may extend to additional products integrated with ORDS. Affected deployments are ORDS versions 24.2.0 through 26.1.0; environments on patched/other versions or that do not expose ORDS over the network to low-privileged users are not at risk. The primary limiting factor is the mandatory low-privilege authentication requirement.

Impact

This is a moderate-severity information-disclosure issue (CVSS 3.1 base 5.0) rather than a top-tier emergency. The vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:N/A:N) indicates a network-reachable, low-complexity attack requiring low privileges (PR:L - the attacker must already be authenticated at a low level), with no user interaction, yielding only limited confidentiality impact (C:L) and no integrity or availability impact. The scope change (S:C) is the one aggravating factor: Oracle explicitly warns attacks 'may significantly impact additional products,' meaning a compromise of ORDS could expose data belonging to adjacent components. No EPSS score, no CISA KEV listing, and no public POC were provided in the input, so there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and no evidence of active or automated exploitation. There is no SSVC decision data supplied. Signals are therefore consistent and point to a low-to-moderate real-world priority: patch in the normal Oracle Critical Patch Update (October 2026) cycle rather than as an out-of-band emergency. Note a data conflict worth verifying: the input Tags label this 'Authentication Bypass,' but the description and CVSS (PR:L, confidentiality-only read of a data subset) describe a low-privileged information disclosure, not an authentication bypass - treat the tag as suspect.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

A low-privileged user who already holds network HTTP access to an Oracle REST Data Services endpoint sends crafted requests that abuse a flaw in the Core component to read a subset of data they should not be able to see. Because the vulnerability carries a scope change, the disclosed data may belong to adjacent products that rely on ORDS. No public proof-of-concept is available, and low attack complexity means a working exploit, once developed, would be reliable.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 21, 2026

Low-privileged authenticated users can read a subset of data accessible through Oracle REST Data Services 24.2.0 through 26.1.0 by sending crafted HTTP requests to a Core endpoint. The issue is rated CVSS 3.1 5.0 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:N/A:N), so exploitation requires a valid low-privilege account and network reachability, with no user interaction; the scope change means disclosed data may extend to integrated products. No public exploit code or confirmed active exploitation was identified at time of analysis.

RemediationAI

Apply the Oracle Critical Patch Update for October 2026 for Oracle REST Data Services (https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpuoct2026.html); the provided data confirms patch availability per vendor advisory but does not specify an exact patched ORDS version, so validate the fixed build in Oracle's CPU documentation before upgrading. Until patching is possible, reduce exposure by limiting network access to ORDS HTTP endpoints to trusted networks or users, enforcing least privilege and reviewing low-privileged accounts that can reach ORDS, and monitoring for anomalous read activity; these controls trade off integration availability and require accurate account inventories. No specific vendor workaround is identified in the provided data, and no public exploit was identified at time of analysis.

Technical ContextAI · show details

Oracle REST Data Services (ORDS) is Java-based middleware that exposes Oracle Database schemas and PL/SQL as RESTful HTTP/HTTPS endpoints; the affected Core component handles request routing, authentication and authorization, and data access. The assessed vector (PR:L, S:C, C:L) describes an authorization boundary weakness in which a low-privileged authenticated user can cause ORDS to return a subset of data they should not be able to read, potentially including data belonging to other products integrated with ORDS because of the scope change. CWE is not provided in the source data, so the precise root-cause class is not confirmed; the vendor tag "Authentication Bypass" is consistent with an access-control or authorization issue, but the assessed vector requires a valid low-privilege account rather than fully unauthenticated access.

DescriptionCVE.org

Vulnerability in Oracle REST Data Services (component: Core). 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. While the vulnerability is in Oracle REST Data Services, attacks may significantly impact additional products (scope change). Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized read access to a subset of Oracle REST Data Services accessible data. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 5.0 (Confidentiality impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:N/A:N).
