Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires network HTTP access to the Oracle Content Manager / EBS Internal Operations component and a low-privilege authenticated foothold (CVSS PR:L) - the attacker must already hold some valid low-tier EBS account or credentials; no user interaction is needed (UI:N) and attack complexity is low (AC:L). Limiting factors: an attacker with zero credentials cannot exploit this per the PR:L vector (despite the vendor 'Authentication Bypass' tag, which conflicts and should be confirmed with Oracle), and the affected build must be Oracle Content Manager 12.2.3 through 12.2.15. Impact is confined to confidentiality and integrity of Content Manager-accessible data; there is no availability/denial-of-service effect (A:N).

Impact

The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N, score 8.1) signals a genuinely dangerous, low-complexity, network-reachable issue that needs only low privileges and no user interaction, yielding high confidentiality and integrity impact but no availability impact. However, key corroborating signals are absent: no EPSS score was provided, there is no CISA KEV listing, and no POC/exploit code was identified, so real-world exploitation likelihood cannot be quantified from the input. A notable conflict exists between the vendor 'Authentication Bypass' tag and the PR:L metric - an outright auth bypass would typically be PR:N; verify with Oracle whether pre-authentication exploitation is possible, as that would materially raise priority. For EBS operators this is a high-priority patch given EBS's exposure and sensitivity, but the 'critical-at-scale' verdict depends on missing EPSS/exploit data.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker who holds or obtains a low-privilege Oracle EBS application account (or credentials to one) sends crafted HTTP requests to the Content Manager Internal Operations functionality and gains unauthorized read and write access to sensitive content data belonging to other users or the organization. Low attack complexity and no required user interaction make the request-level exploitation straightforward once authenticated access exists; no public POC has been identified at time of analysis.

AnalysisAIv1 – Jul 22, 2026

Data compromise in Oracle Content Manager (Oracle E-Business Suite, Internal Operations component), versions 12.2.3 through 12.2.15, lets a low-privileged attacker with HTTP network access read, create, modify, or delete all Content Manager-accessible data. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 8.1 (C:H/I:H, no availability impact), reflecting high confidentiality and integrity damage without service disruption. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV; the Oracle-supplied 'Authentication Bypass' tag conflicts with the PR:L vector and should be treated cautiously.

RemediationAI

Apply the fixes from the Oracle July 2026 Critical Patch Update (https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpujul2026.html), which covers Oracle E-Business Suite 12.2.x; Oracle does not publish standalone fix version numbers per CVE, so the CPU patch level is the correct target - treat this as 'Patch available per vendor advisory' since no discrete fixed version string was provided in the input. Because EBS patches require an outage window and testing, in the interim restrict network reachability of the EBS web tier and the Content Manager endpoints to trusted internal networks or VPN only, tighten least-privilege on application accounts so low-privilege users cannot reach Internal Operations functions, and increase monitoring/audit logging on Content Manager data-access and modification events; note that network restrictions may affect legitimate remote users and should be validated against business access needs. Do not deploy unvetted third-party patches.

Technical ContextAI · show details

Oracle Content Manager is a content/document management module within the Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) applications platform, exposed over HTTP via the EBS web tier. The vulnerable area is the Internal Operations component. Oracle's Critical Patch Update advisories do not publish a CWE (CWE is N/A here), and no CPE strings were supplied, so the precise weakness class cannot be pinned down from the input; the impact profile (full read/write to accessible data via an authenticated low-privilege HTTP path) is consistent with a broken access control / authorization flaw where an authenticated low-tier user can reach data or operations beyond their intended privilege level. The vendor 'Authentication Bypass' tag hints at an authorization/authentication weakness, but the CVSS PR:L indicates some level of valid access is still required.

DescriptionCVE.org

Vulnerability in the Oracle Content Manager product of Oracle E-Business Suite (component: Internal Operations). Supported versions that are affected are 12.2.3-12.2.15. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle Content Manager. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized creation, deletion or modification access to critical data or all Oracle Content Manager accessible data as well as unauthorized access to critical data or complete access to all Oracle Content Manager accessible data. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 8.1 (Confidentiality and Integrity impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N).

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

Oracle Content Manager in E-Business Suite versions 12.2.3-12.2.15 contains a data access vulnerability (CVE-2026-60691, CVSS 8.1) that allows low-privileged users to read, create, modify, or delete sensitive business content. This exposes confidential data and operational records to compromise by authenticated attackers without requiring privilege escalation. Organizations running affected versions must immediately assess data exposure and implement containment measures, as no vendor patch is currently available.

Business Impact: High
Compensating Controls

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Interim mitigations: (1) Network segmentation-restrict Content Manager HTTP access via firewall to administrative networks only; (2) Application-level access control-enforce least-privilege role assignments and disable data modification permissions for non-administrative accounts; (3) Enhanced monitoring-implement detailed API logging and alerting for data access, modification, and deletion events; (4) Credential management-rotate any high-privilege content management service account credentials immediately. Monitor Oracle advisories for patch availability.
