1DescriptionCVE.org
Vulnerability in the Oracle Unified Directory product of Oracle Fusion Middleware (component: OUD Core). Supported versions that are affected are 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.1.0. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with network access via LDAP to compromise Oracle Unified Directory. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized creation, deletion or modification access to critical data or all Oracle Unified Directory accessible data as well as unauthorized access to critical data or complete access to all Oracle Unified Directory accessible data. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 6.8 (Confidentiality and Integrity impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N).
AnalysisAI
Oracle Unified Directory versions 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.1.0 expose a network-exploitable authentication bypass over LDAP that grants low-privileged attackers full read and write control over directory data. Despite a moderate CVSS base score of 6.8 driven down by high attack complexity (AC:H), successful exploitation yields complete confidentiality and integrity compromise of all OUD-accessible data - a severe outcome for identity and directory infrastructure. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | The attacker must possess a low-privileged authenticated account within Oracle Unified Directory with the ability to initiate LDAP connections to the server (port 389 or 636). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 base score of 6.8 (AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N) reflects a network-reachable flaw that nonetheless requires high attack complexity - meaning exploitation is not straightforward and likely depends on specific conditions such as race conditions, particular LDAP operation sequences, or precise server state. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | Apply Oracle's Critical Patch Update for August 2026, available at https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cspuaug2026.html, which addresses this vulnerability for both affected release trains (12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.1.0). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
