Vulnerability in the Oracle Identity Manager Connector product of Oracle Fusion Middleware (component: Microsoft Active Directory). Supported versions that are affected are 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.1.0. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows high privileged attacker with network access via LDAP to compromise Oracle Identity Manager Connector. While the vulnerability is in Oracle Identity Manager Connector, attacks may significantly impact additional products (scope change). Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in takeover of Oracle Identity Manager Connector. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 8.0 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H).
AnalysisAI
Full takeover of Oracle Identity Manager Connector versions 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.1.0 is achievable by a high-privileged, remote attacker exploiting the Microsoft Active Directory component via LDAP, with confirmed scope change impacting additional Oracle Fusion Middleware products. The vendor-assessed outcome is complete loss of confidentiality, integrity, and availability. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires three concurrent prerequisites: (1) the attacker must possess high-privileged credentials within the Oracle Fusion Middleware environment (PR:H per CVSS vector - unauthenticated access is explicitly ruled out); (2) the attacker must have network-level access to the Oracle Identity Manager Connector's LDAP interface; and (3) the Oracle Identity Manager Connector must be configured to integrate with Microsoft Active Directory, since the vulnerability resides specifically in that component - deployments not using Active Directory integration are not exposed to this attack surface. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 score of 8.0 captures a meaningful tension: the full C:H/I:H/A:H impact and scope change (S:C) signal a catastrophic outcome if exploited, yet the PR:H and AC:H constraints substantially limit the realistic attack population. … 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 as published at https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cspuaug2026.html, which addresses CVE-2026-60998 across both affected versions (12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.1.0) of Oracle Identity Manager Connector. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours: Identify all systems running affected versions (12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.1.0); immediately restrict LDAP network access to trusted administrative networks only; enable comprehensive logging of LDAP operations and all high-privilege account activity. …
