2DescriptionCVE.org
Vulnerability in the Oracle WebCenter Content product of Oracle Fusion Middleware (component: Content Server). Supported versions that are affected are 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.0.0. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTPS to compromise Oracle WebCenter Content. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in takeover of Oracle WebCenter Content. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 8.1 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H).
AnalysisAI
Full compromise of Oracle WebCenter Content (Content Server component) is possible in versions 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.0.0, where an unauthenticated remote attacker with HTTPS network access can achieve complete takeover of the product. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 8.1 with high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact, though the flaw is rated difficult to exploit (AC:H). No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the CVE is not listed in CISA KEV.
Technical ContextAI
Oracle WebCenter Content is the enterprise content management (ECM) platform within Oracle Fusion Middleware, used for document, records, and digital asset management; the affected component is the Content Server, its core repository and services engine typically fronted over HTTP/HTTPS. The vulnerability is reachable over the network via HTTPS against the Content Server web tier without authentication. Oracle assigned no CWE (CWE: N/A) and the advisory tag indicates 'Information Disclosure,' but the CVSS vector shows full C/I/A impact consistent with a product takeover rather than pure data exposure, so the exact root-cause class (e.g., deserialization, authentication bypass, or injection) is not disclosed by Oracle's summary-level Critical Patch Update reporting.
RemediationAI
Apply the fixes delivered in the Oracle July 2026 Critical Patch Update (https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpujul2026.html) to affected WebCenter Content installations running 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.0.0; the input identifies patch availability via this CPU advisory but does not list an exact patched build number, so treat this as patch available per vendor advisory and obtain the precise patch/PSU level from the Oracle CPU matrix and My Oracle Support. As compensating controls until patching, restrict network reachability of the Content Server HTTPS endpoint by placing it behind a VPN or IP-allowlisted reverse proxy and removing direct internet exposure (trade-off: may disrupt external content-sharing and federation use cases), and increase monitoring/WAF inspection of HTTPS requests to the Content Server (trade-off: WAF rules cannot be authored precisely without root-cause details Oracle has not published). Do not defer patching on the assumption of low risk, as the flaw permits unauthenticated full takeover.
