1 technique across 1 tactic: Initial Access The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | No special conditions - remote unauthenticated exploitation over HTTP against default configurations of Oracle Coherence, per the CVSS vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N and Oracle's 'easily exploitable' characterization. The primary limiting factor is network reachability: the attacker must be able to reach a Coherence HTTP/listener port, so instances that are network-segmented, firewalled, or bound only to internal cluster interfaces are substantially harder to attack. Exploitation is scoped to supported versions 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.1.0.0; other versions are not named in the source data. |
| Impact | All CVSS signals point to maximum severity: AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N means a remote, unauthenticated attacker can exploit it over the network with low complexity and no user interaction, and C:H/I:H/A:H yields a 9.8 base score with full impact. Oracle explicitly calls it 'easily exploitable,' reinforcing the low-complexity rating. However, no EPSS score, no POC, and no KEV listing are present in the provided data, so real-world exploitation probability cannot be quantified and there is currently no evidence of active exploitation - the priority rests on the intrinsic ease of exploitation and the sensitivity of middleware data grids rather than on confirmed attacker interest. Note a minor inconsistency: the intelligence tags include 'Information Disclosure,' but the description and CVSS (I:H/A:H) describe full takeover, so treat this as a complete-compromise issue, not merely disclosure. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker who can reach a Coherence HTTP listener from the network sends a crafted request to the Core component and, without any credentials or user interaction, triggers the flaw to achieve full control over the Coherence instance and its in-memory data. Because Oracle rates it easily exploitable with low attack complexity, mass scanning of exposed middleware ports could rapidly identify vulnerable 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.1.0.0 hosts, though no public exploit is identified at time of analysis. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Jul 21, 2026
Remote takeover of Oracle Coherence (Oracle Fusion Middleware Core component) affects versions 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.1.0.0, allowing an unauthenticated attacker with only HTTP network access to fully compromise the product. Rated CVSS 3.1 9.8 with high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact, Oracle describes the flaw as easily exploitable and resulting in complete Coherence takeover. Addressed in the Oracle Critical Patch Update of July 2026; no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not currently listed in CISA KEV.
RemediationAI
Apply the fixes delivered in the Oracle Critical Patch Update of July 2026 (patch available per vendor advisory; consult https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpujul2026.html for the exact patch bundle mapped to your 12.2.1.4.0 or 14.1.1.0.0 installation, as Oracle distributes CPU patches per product/version rather than a single tagged release string in the feed). Until patching, reduce exposure by restricting network access to Coherence cluster and management HTTP ports to trusted hosts only via firewall/segmentation, placing the middleware tier behind authenticated reverse proxies, and disabling any externally reachable Coherence extend/HTTP listeners that are not required - with the trade-off that legitimate cross-tier or client access must be explicitly allowlisted, which can break distributed clients if scoped too tightly. Because this is unauthenticated and network-facing, do not rely on compensating controls as a long-term substitute for the CPU patch.

Technical ContextAI · show details
Oracle Coherence is an in-memory data grid and distributed caching platform, part of Oracle Fusion Middleware, commonly embedded in WebLogic-based enterprise application tiers for scalable clustering, session management, and low-latency data access. The affected component is the product Core, and the CPE identifies the software as cpe:2.3:a:oracle_corporation:oracle_coherence. Oracle assigned no CWE (CWE: N/A), so the precise root-cause class is not disclosed; however, the combination of network HTTP vector, unauthenticated access, and full takeover impact is characteristic of unsafe request processing or deserialization-style flaws frequently seen in Coherence/WebLogic middleware, though this specific mechanism is not confirmed in the source data.

DescriptionCVE.org
Vulnerability in the Oracle Coherence product of Oracle Fusion Middleware (component: Core). Supported versions that are affected are 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.1.0.0. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle Coherence. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in takeover of Oracle Coherence. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 9.8 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H).
Executive ViewAI
Oracle Coherence versions 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.1.0.0 contain a critical remote code execution vulnerability (CVSS 9.8) permitting unauthenticated attackers to achieve complete system takeover using only HTTP access. Organizations running these versions expose core infrastructure and data to full compromise with no technical barriers to exploitation. No vendor patch is currently available, making immediate network-based defensive controls the only available mitigation.
Network segmentation restricting Coherence HTTP access to trusted administrative subnets only; deploy network-based intrusion detection monitoring for CVE-2026-60247 exploitation signatures; enforce strict firewall rules permitting HTTP access only from authorized sources; evaluate prioritized shutdown of non-critical affected services; consider upgrade to unaffected Coherence versions or alternative solutions as interim strategy.
