Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires network access to the Oracle Identity Manager Connector's HTTPS-exposed Core function on a deployment running version 12.2.1.4.0; per the CVSS vector (PR:N/UI:N/AC:L) no credentials, user interaction, or special configuration are needed against an affected instance. The practical limiting factor is reachability: OIM is typically an internal identity-governance system, so exploitation depends on the attacker being able to reach the connector endpoint (LAN foothold, VPN, or a misconfigured internet-facing deployment). Version is the hard gate - only 12.2.1.4.0 is listed as affected - and there is no confirmed active exploitation or public POC constraining or enabling real-world use.

Impact

The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N, score 9.1) describes an easy, network, unauthenticated attack with high confidentiality and integrity impact but no availability impact - consistent with a data-exposure/tampering authentication bypass rather than remote code execution. Signals conflict on urgency: CISA SSVC rates Technical Impact as 'total' and Automatable as 'yes' (which favors prioritization), yet Exploitation is 'none', EPSS is only 0.03% (9th percentile), and there is no KEV listing or public POC. The realistic read is a genuinely severe-if-reached vulnerability whose real-world exploitation is currently low/unproven - likely because OIM is an internal enterprise system not typically internet-exposed, making mass exploitation improbable but targeted attacks against reachable deployments credible. This is a real patch priority for anyone running 12.2.1.4.0, but the low EPSS and 'Exploitation: none' status argue it is not yet an emergency compared to KEV-listed bugs.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker with network access to the OIM connector's HTTPS interface sends crafted requests directly to the unauthenticated Core function, bypassing login entirely. Because CVSS is AV:N/AC:L/PR:N, they can then read sensitive identity data and create, delete, or modify accounts across all connector-accessible data with a single low-complexity request and no user interaction. No public exploit code is currently identified, but SSVC flags the attack as automatable, so a working exploit could be scripted broadly once developed.

AnalysisAIv1 – Jul 24, 2026

Authentication bypass in Oracle Identity Manager Connector 12.2.1.4.0 (Oracle Fusion Middleware, Core component) lets a remote, unauthenticated attacker reach and manipulate all connector-accessible data over HTTPS. Because the flaw is a missing-authentication weakness (CWE-306), an attacker can read, create, delete, or modify critical identity data with no credentials and low complexity. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and EPSS is very low (0.03%), but the CVSS 9.1 and CISA SSVC 'total' technical impact rating mark it as high severity.

RemediationAI

Apply the fixes from Oracle's April 2026 Critical Patch Update (https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpuapr2026.html) for the affected Oracle Identity Manager Connector 12.2.1.4.0 deployment - Patch available per vendor advisory; the CPU does not publish a single semantic fix version here, so obtain the specific connector patch/bundle from Oracle Support and verify the applied level. As compensating controls until patched, restrict network reachability of the connector's HTTPS endpoints to trusted management networks or an allow-listed jump host (side effect: may break legitimate connector traffic to/from target systems and provisioning workflows, so validate integration paths first), place the OIM connector behind a reverse proxy or WAF that enforces authentication on the exposed function, and remove any internet exposure of OIM interfaces (trade-off: does not stop an insider or a foothold on the internal network). Increase logging/monitoring on connector data-access and account create/delete/modify operations to detect abuse while remediation is scheduled.

Technical ContextAI · show details

Oracle Identity Manager (OIM) is Oracle Fusion Middleware's enterprise identity-governance and provisioning platform; Connectors are the integration modules that synchronize identities, accounts, and entitlements between OIM and downstream target systems (Active Directory, databases, SaaS apps, etc.). The affected component is the connector 'Core', reachable over HTTPS. The root cause is CWE-306 (Missing Authentication for a Critical Function): a security-sensitive connector function is exposed without verifying the requester's identity, so the network-facing endpoint accepts requests that should require authentication. The single CPE provided, cpe:2.3:a:oracle_corporation:oracle_identity_manager_connector:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*, does not pin a version, but Oracle and the EUVD record scope the defect specifically to release 12.2.1.4.0.

DescriptionCVE.org

Vulnerability in the Oracle Identity Manager Connector product of Oracle Fusion Middleware (component: Core). The supported version that is affected is 12.2.1.4.0. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTPS to compromise Oracle Identity Manager Connector. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized creation, deletion or modification access to critical data or all Oracle Identity Manager Connector accessible data as well as unauthorized access to critical data or complete access to all Oracle Identity Manager Connector accessible data. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 9.1 (Confidentiality and Integrity impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N).

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

Oracle Identity Manager Connector 12.2.1.4.0 contains a critical authentication bypass vulnerability (CVSS 9.1) allowing unauthenticated remote attackers to read, create, delete, and modify all identity data without credentials. Organizations running Oracle Fusion Middleware with this connector face immediate risk to access control systems; an attacker can manipulate identity records to grant unauthorized system privileges or perform lateral movement.

Business Impact: Severe
Compensating Controls

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Implement network segmentation restricting connector access to trusted administrative systems only; deploy reverse-proxy authentication layer if available to enforce credential checks; enable comprehensive audit logging and alerting on all identity data changes; disable connector services where operationally nonessential; schedule regular contact with Oracle for patch availability.
