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 network HTTP access to the WebCenter Content: Imaging Core interface and a low-privilege authenticated context (CVSS PR:L), so an attacker needs at least a valid low-tier Imaging account or an equivalent foothold - it is NOT unauthenticated against a default deployment. No user interaction is required (UI:N) and attack complexity is low (AC:L). Affected deployments are specifically supported versions 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.0.0. The scope change (S:C) means a successful attack can affect resources beyond the Imaging module itself. The main limiting factor is the low-privilege authentication requirement; the amplifying factors are network reach, no user interaction, and low complexity. |
| Impact | The signals point to a genuine priority for organizations running this product. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:L/A:N = 8.5 High) shows a low-complexity, network-reachable attack requiring only low privileges and no user interaction, with a scope change that amplifies blast radius - consistent with Oracle's 'easily exploitable' language. Confidentiality impact is High (complete read of Imaging data), integrity is Low (partial update/insert/delete), and availability is unaffected. No EPSS score, no SSVC decision, and no CWE were provided in the input, so automatability and technical-impact classifications cannot be independently corroborated. It is not in CISA KEV and no POC is referenced, so this is high-severity by design metrics but not (yet) evidence of active exploitation - the practical gate is that an attacker needs some valid low-privilege foothold/account on the Imaging application. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker who holds or obtains a low-privilege WebCenter Content: Imaging account (e.g., a limited business user or a compromised low-tier credential) sends crafted HTTP requests to the Imaging Core endpoints and abuses the authorization/authentication-bypass flaw to read the full set of Imaging-accessible documents and alter some records. Because the vulnerability carries a scope change, the same access can pivot to impact other Fusion Middleware components sharing the environment. No public POC is referenced, but Oracle rates the attack as easily exploitable with low complexity. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Jul 22, 2026
Privilege-abusing information disclosure and data tampering in Oracle WebCenter Content: Imaging (Core component) lets a low-privileged, network-based attacker read all Imaging-accessible data and modify some of it over HTTP. The flaw carries a scope change (CVSS 8.5), meaning a successful attack can reach beyond the Imaging module into other Fusion Middleware components, and Oracle tags it as an authentication-bypass-class issue. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV, but Oracle rates it 'easily exploitable' and shipped a fix in the July 2026 Critical Patch Update.
RemediationAI
Apply the Oracle Critical Patch Update of July 2026, which contains the fix for this issue, per Oracle advisory https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpujul2026.html (Patch available per vendor advisory; the CPU does not expose a single semantic fix-version string, so apply the CPU bundle patch corresponding to your installed 12.2.1.4.0 or 14.1.2.0.0 release). Because Oracle CPUs are cumulative, patch promptly and prioritize internet-exposed Imaging instances. Until patching, reduce exposure by restricting network reachability of the Imaging HTTP endpoints to trusted internal networks or via a reverse proxy/WAF (trade-off: may break legitimate remote/mobile capture clients), tightening and auditing low-privilege Imaging accounts and removing unnecessary users since exploitation requires an authenticated low-privilege foothold, and increasing logging/monitoring on Imaging access to detect anomalous cross-scope data access. These are compensating controls only and do not substitute for the CPU patch.

Technical ContextAI · show details
Oracle WebCenter Content: Imaging is the document-imaging and capture module of the Oracle WebCenter Content platform, part of Oracle Fusion Middleware, used for scanning, storing, indexing and routing business documents (invoices, forms, records) via a Java/WebLogic-hosted HTTP application. The affected 'Core' component handles the imaging engine and its access-control layer. No CWE was assigned by NVD, but the Oracle-supplied 'Authentication Bypass' tag and the CVSS profile (low privileges required, high confidentiality impact, scope change) point to a broken-access-control / authorization root cause (CWE-284/CWE-285 class) where an authenticated low-privilege user can reach data and functions that should be restricted, and where the trust boundary crossed also affects adjacent WebLogic-hosted products.

DescriptionCVE.org
Vulnerability in the WebCenter Content: Imaging product of Oracle Fusion Middleware (component: Core). Supported versions that are affected are 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.0.0. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise WebCenter Content: Imaging. While the vulnerability is in WebCenter Content: Imaging, attacks may significantly impact additional products (scope change). Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized access to critical data or complete access to all WebCenter Content: Imaging accessible data as well as unauthorized update, insert or delete access to some of WebCenter Content: Imaging accessible data. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 8.5 (Confidentiality and Integrity impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:L/A:N).
Executive ViewAI
A vulnerability in Oracle WebCenter Content Imaging (CVE-2026-60452) allows low-privileged network attackers to read all Imaging-accessible data and modify portions of it via HTTP, creating both data breach and integrity risks. Due to a scope change in the vulnerability, a successful attack could extend beyond Imaging into other Fusion Middleware components, potentially compromising multiple interconnected systems. Organizations using WebCenter Content Imaging should prioritize patching to prevent unauthorized data access and cross-system compromise.
Apply vendor patch.
