Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires an authenticated attacker holding high privileges (CVSS PR:H) within Oracle E-Business Suite who can reach the Inventory Costing functionality of the Cost Management module over HTTP (AV:N). Limiting factors: the attacker must already possess high application privileges, so this is not exploitable by anonymous or low-privileged users; however, no user interaction is needed (UI:N), attack complexity is low (AC:L), and it affects default deployments of the listed 12.2.3-12.2.15 versions once such privilege is held. It is confined to a single security scope (S:U), so it does not by itself cross into other systems.

Impact

The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H = 7.2 High) shows the decisive limiting factor is PR:H - the attacker must already hold high privileges within the application. Attack complexity is low and no user interaction is required, so once that privilege is held, exploitation is described by Oracle as 'easily exploitable.' No EPSS score, SSVC decision, KEV listing, or POC was provided in the intelligence, so there is no evidence of active or automatable exploitation; the practical risk is dominated by insider or credential-compromise scenarios rather than mass remote attack. This is a genuine 'takeover' impact but gated behind existing high privilege, making it a meaningful patch-cycle priority for exposed EBS environments rather than an emergency drop-everything issue. Note the vendor 'Information Disclosure' tag understates the vector, which asserts full C/I/A impact and complete module takeover - treat the CVSS impact as authoritative over the tag.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker who has obtained a high-privileged Oracle E-Business Suite account - whether a malicious insider or an outsider who phished or credential-stuffed an administrator - sends crafted HTTP requests to the Inventory Costing functions of the Cost Management module. With low attack complexity and no user interaction required, they escalate to full control of the module, reading and altering costing data or rendering it unavailable. No public POC or exploit code was identified at the time of analysis.

AnalysisAIv1 – Jul 22, 2026

Full takeover of Oracle Cost Management (Inventory Costing component) in Oracle E-Business Suite 12.2.3 through 12.2.15 is achievable by an authenticated high-privileged attacker sending crafted HTTP requests over the network. Successful exploitation compromises confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the module, carrying a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.2. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and it is not listed in CISA KEV, though it was reported and fixed by Oracle in the July 2026 Critical Patch Update.

RemediationAI

Apply the fixes delivered in the Oracle July 2026 Critical Patch Update (https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpujul2026.html), which is the vendor-released patch for this issue; no standalone exact fix build number was supplied in the intelligence, so identify the specific EBS 12.2 patch for your release level directly from the CPU advisory matrix. Because exploitation requires high application privileges, effective compensating controls until patching include tightening the assignment of Cost Management and Inventory responsibilities to the minimum set of trusted administrators, auditing and rotating credentials of high-privileged EBS accounts, and restricting network reachability of the EBS web tier so that only trusted internal hosts can send HTTP requests to the application. Trade-off: restricting responsibilities or web-tier access may disrupt legitimate finance/inventory operators, so validate role assignments before enforcing.

Technical ContextAI · show details

Oracle Cost Management is a financial/inventory module within the Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) 12.2 application stack, running on the Oracle Application Server / WebLogic middleware tier and backed by an Oracle Database. The affected 'Inventory Costing' functionality is reached over HTTP through the EBS web tier. Oracle did not assign a specific CWE (CWE: N/A), so the exact root-cause class is not disclosed; the vendor tag 'Information Disclosure' and the C:H/I:H/A:H impact profile point to a flaw that lets a privileged user exceed their intended authorization and fully subvert the module. Because EBS 12.2 shares session and authentication context across many modules, a foothold in one privileged module often has broad reach.

DescriptionCVE.org

Vulnerability in the Oracle Cost Management product of Oracle E-Business Suite (component: Inventory Costing). Supported versions that are affected are 12.2.3-12.2.15. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows high privileged attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle Cost Management. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in takeover of Oracle Cost Management. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 7.2 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H).

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

Oracle Cost Management in E-Business Suite versions 12.2.3-12.2.15 is vulnerable to complete module compromise by authenticated high-privilege users, affecting financial data confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Organizations running affected EBS versions require immediate patch deployment to prevent unauthorized manipulation of inventory costing and financial records.

Business Impact: High
Compensating Controls

Apply vendor patch. Pending patch deployment, restrict Cost Management high-privilege access to named essential administrators, enable module access logging with real-time alerting, and implement IP-based access controls to limit EBS administrative connections to corporate networks only.
