MITRE ATT&CK
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 supported deployments of Oracle Identity Manager (versions 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.1.0) that expose the OIM Legacy UI component. The CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N) confirms no authentication and no user interaction are required. The primary limiting factor is reachability of the Legacy UI: exploitation requires network HTTP access to that specific component, so instances where the Legacy UI is disabled, not deployed, or firewalled off from the attacker are not exposed. Affected only on the two named supported versions. |
| Impact | Every available signal points to genuine high priority. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H, 9.8) indicates network-reachable, low-complexity, unauthenticated exploitation with total impact to all three security properties. No EPSS score was provided, so exploitation-probability cannot be quantified from this data; no SSVC decision record was supplied either. The vulnerability is NOT in CISA KEV and no POC was referenced, so exploitation is neither confirmed active nor publicly weaponized at this time. That said, OIM is a high-value identity-governance target and Oracle-authored (secalert_us@oracle.com) confirmation of a full-takeover, unauthenticated bug means this should be treated as urgent regardless of the currently unknown EPSS. The gap to flag: severity is vendor/NVD-confirmed but real-world exploitation likelihood is unmeasured here - absence of KEV/POC data is not evidence of low risk given the trivial attack profile. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker who can reach the OIM Legacy UI over HTTP sends a crafted unauthenticated request to the vulnerable endpoint and, with no valid credentials and no user interaction, gains control of the Oracle Identity Manager instance. From that foothold the attacker can create or elevate accounts and manipulate provisioning across every downstream system OIM governs. No public exploit is identified at time of analysis, so this scenario is inferred from the CVSS profile rather than an observed POC. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Aug 18, 2026
Full product takeover in Oracle Identity Manager 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.1.0 (Legacy UI component) allows a remote, unauthenticated attacker to compromise the identity-governance platform over HTTP. Rated CVSS 9.8 with high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact, this issue is trivially exploitable and requires no user interaction; at time of analysis there is no public exploit identified and it is not listed in CISA KEV. Because OIM brokers provisioning and access to downstream enterprise systems, a takeover here has cascading blast radius across connected accounts and applications.
RemediationAI
Apply the fixes delivered in Oracle's August 2026 Critical Patch Update (Patch available per vendor advisory) documented at https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cspuaug2026.html; Oracle does not publish standalone fix version strings in the CPU note, so the CPU bundle itself is the patch - an exact patched build number is not independently confirmed from the provided data. Prioritize patching given the unauthenticated 9.8 rating. Until the CPU is applied, reduce exposure by restricting network access to the OIM Legacy UI: place OIM behind a VPN or trusted-network segment, block external HTTP/HTTPS reachability to the console at the load balancer or WAF, and if the Legacy UI is not operationally required, disable or restrict its endpoint (trade-off: administrators relying on the legacy interface lose access and must use the newer UI). These are compensating controls only and do not substitute for the CPU.

Technical ContextAI · show details
Oracle Identity Manager (OIM) is the identity-lifecycle and access-provisioning module of Oracle Fusion Middleware, deployed on WebLogic and used to manage user accounts, roles, and entitlements across an enterprise. The flaw resides in the 'OIM Legacy UI' component - an older web-facing interface still shipped in supported releases. Oracle's advisory does not assign a CWE (CWE listed as N/A) and provides no technical detail on the root cause; the 'takeover' phrasing combined with an unauthenticated network vector is consistent with classes such as authentication bypass, deserialization, or injection in the legacy request-handling path, but the specific mechanism is not disclosed. No CPE strings were provided in the intelligence set, so affected components are identified from Oracle's version list rather than NVD CPE matching.

DescriptionCVE.org
Vulnerability in the Oracle Identity Manager product of Oracle Fusion Middleware (component: OIM Legacy UI). Supported versions that are affected are 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.1.0. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle Identity Manager. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in takeover of Oracle Identity Manager. 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 Identity Manager (OIM) versions 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.1.0 contain a critical vulnerability permitting complete unauthenticated remote takeover of the identity governance platform, with no patch currently available. Because OIM controls identity provisioning and access for downstream enterprise systems, compromise enables attackers to create accounts, modify permissions, and manipulate access across the organization's entire application portfolio. Every organization deploying these versions requires immediate compensating controls to prevent cascading account compromise and unauthorized system access.
Restrict Oracle Identity Manager access to dedicated administrative networks via firewall rules and VPN enforcement; deploy Web Application Firewall rules targeting the legacy UI component; enable comprehensive audit logging and real-time alerting on all identity and provisioning operations; segment OIM from internet-facing and untrusted networks; implement monitoring for anomalous role assignments and privilege escalation across downstream managed systems; conduct weekly reviews of authentication logs and administrative activity for indicators of compromise.
