DescriptionCVE.org

Vulnerability in the PeopleSoft Enterprise PeopleTools product of Oracle PeopleSoft (component: Security). Supported versions that are affected are 8.61 and 8.62. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with logon to the infrastructure where PeopleSoft Enterprise PeopleTools executes to compromise PeopleSoft Enterprise PeopleTools. While the vulnerability is in PeopleSoft Enterprise PeopleTools, attacks may significantly impact additional products (scope change). Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized creation, deletion or modification access to critical data or all PeopleSoft Enterprise PeopleTools accessible data as well as unauthorized access to critical data or complete access to all PeopleSoft Enterprise PeopleTools accessible data. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 7.5 (Confidentiality and Integrity impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:N).

AnalysisAI

PeopleSoft Enterprise PeopleTools versions 8.61 and 8.62 contain an authentication bypass in the Security component, exploitable by a low-privileged attacker with local infrastructure access to achieve full confidentiality and integrity compromise of PeopleTools data, with scope change enabling lateral impact across additional integrated Oracle products. The local attack vector (AV:L) and high complexity (AC:H) constrain exploitation to insider threats or post-compromise scenarios, but the S:C scope change and H/H confidentiality-integrity impact make successful exploitation highly consequential in large Oracle ERP environments. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires an attacker to already hold a low-privileged account with the ability to log on locally to the operating system of the server where PeopleSoft Enterprise PeopleTools 8.61 or 8.62 is installed - this is not a remotely exploitable vulnerability from the network. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.5 is driven by scope change and high C/I impact, but AV:L and AC:H substantially reduce realistic exploitability. … 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 August 2026 Critical Security Patch Update as the primary remediation, referenced at https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cspuaug2026.html - the exact patched release version was not specified in the available intelligence beyond the affected versions (8.61, 8.62), so administrators must consult the full Oracle CPU advisory to confirm the precise target version for upgrade. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours: Identify all systems running PeopleTools 8.61 or 8.62 and verify local infrastructure access is strictly limited to authorized IT personnel only; enable comprehensive audit logging for PeopleTools Security component activities. …
