MITRE ATT&CK
1 technique across 1 tactic: Privilege Escalation The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires the attacker to already have a low-privileged logon (PR:L) to the infrastructure host where Oracle Communications BRM - Elastic Charging Engine executes, and to interact with the Diameter Gateway and SDK component; the CVSS local vector (AV:L) means it cannot be triggered purely over the network without such a foothold. Limiting factors: authenticated access is required (PR:L, not PR:N), the attack is local rather than remote, and it applies to ECE versions 15.0.0.0.0, 15.0.1.0.0, 15.1.0.0.0, and 15.2.0.0.0. No user interaction is required (UI:N) and attack complexity is low (AC:L), so once a low-privilege foothold exists there are no further special configuration conditions stated in the description. |
| Impact | The CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.8 (High) is driven by full C/I/A compromise (scope unchanged) combined with a local attack vector (AV:L), low complexity (AC:L), low privileges (PR:L), and no user interaction (UI:N). This is a genuine post-authentication local privilege escalation / takeover risk rather than a remotely-wormable threat: an attacker must already have a valid low-privileged logon to the ECE infrastructure, which meaningfully limits the exposure to insiders, compromised service accounts, or attackers who have already gained a foothold. No EPSS score is provided in the input, KEV status is not confirmed (not listed), and no POC is referenced - so there is no signal of active or automated exploitation. The 'Information Disclosure' tag is narrower than the description's full-takeover claim; the description and CVSS (C:H/I:H/A:H) are authoritative here, indicating impact well beyond disclosure. Priority should be assessed as important-but-not-emergency for defenders: patch in the normal Oracle CPU cycle, prioritized where untrusted or numerous low-privilege accounts exist on ECE hosts. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker who has obtained a low-privileged account on an ECE host - for example a compromised service or integration account, or a malicious insider - leverages the Diameter Gateway and SDK flaw to escalate from that limited access to full control of the Elastic Charging Engine, enabling manipulation of charging/billing data and disruption of the online charging service. No public proof-of-concept is identified at time of analysis, and the local low-complexity vector means that once such access exists, exploitation is straightforward. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Jul 22, 2026
Local privilege escalation to full product takeover in Oracle Communications BRM - Elastic Charging Engine (versions 15.0.0.0.0, 15.0.1.0.0, 15.1.0.0.0, 15.2.0.0.0) lets a low-privileged attacker with logon access to the host running the ECE infrastructure compromise the Diameter Gateway and SDK component. Per Oracle's CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N), exploitation is authenticated and local but easily performed, yielding high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact (base 7.8). No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the CVE is not listed in CISA KEV.
RemediationAI
Apply the fixes delivered in the Oracle Critical Patch Update of July 2026, referenced at https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpujul2026.html; Oracle ships ECE security fixes through the quarterly CPU rather than as standalone tagged releases, so consult that advisory for the exact patch/bundle applicable to your 15.0.x, 15.1, or 15.2 deployment (Patch available per vendor advisory; an exact fix version is not enumerated in the provided input). Because exploitation requires a local low-privileged logon, effective compensating controls until patching include restricting and auditing interactive/OS and application accounts on the hosts running ECE and the Diameter Gateway (reduce the population of low-privilege accounts that could exploit the flaw), enforcing least privilege and separation of duties on the charging infrastructure, and monitoring for anomalous local activity by service accounts - with the trade-off that these reduce but do not eliminate insider or foothold-based risk and require operational review to avoid disrupting legitimate integration/SDK usage.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The affected product is Oracle's Elastic Charging Engine (ECE), the real-time online charging component of the Oracle Communications Billing and Revenue Management (BRM) suite used by telecom carriers to rate and charge for subscriber usage. The specific component is the Diameter Gateway and SDK - the Diameter protocol front-end (RFC 6733, used for online charging via the Ro/Gy interfaces between network elements and the charging system) plus its developer SDK. No CWE was assigned by Oracle or NVD, so the precise root-cause class (e.g., improper access control, insecure deserialization, or privilege management flaw) cannot be confirmed from the available data; the CVSS local vector with low-privilege prerequisite suggests a flaw exploitable by an existing OS/application account on the ECE host rather than over the Diameter network interface itself.

DescriptionCVE.org
Vulnerability in the Oracle Communications BRM - Elastic Charging Engine product of Oracle Communications (component: Diameter Gateway and SDK). Supported versions that are affected are 15.0.0.0.0, 15.0.1.0.0, 15.1.0.0.0 and 15.2.0.0.0. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with logon to the infrastructure where Oracle Communications BRM - Elastic Charging Engine executes to compromise Oracle Communications BRM - Elastic Charging Engine. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in takeover of Oracle Communications BRM - Elastic Charging Engine. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 7.8 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H).
Executive ViewAI
Oracle Communications BRM Elastic Charging Engine (versions 15.0.0-15.2.0) contains a privilege escalation vulnerability that allows authenticated users with host access to achieve complete compromise of critical billing infrastructure, including the Diameter Gateway and SDK components. No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis, leaving organizations running affected versions exposed to total system takeover and revenue service disruption.
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Implement mandatory host-based access controls restricting low-privileged user logon to ECE infrastructure via centralized identity management. Deploy host intrusion detection and real-time monitoring of privilege escalation attempts on affected systems. Enforce strict network segmentation to isolate Diameter Gateway and SDK components from less-trusted network segments. Enhance low-privileged account authentication with multi-factor authentication or certificate-based access. Maintain comprehensive audit logging of all privilege escalation and system modification attempts with alerting on suspicious activity. Conduct quarterly access reviews to validate least-privilege compliance and remove unnecessary user access rights.
