Exploitation Conditions

The attacker must possess a valid low-privilege account with network access to the Oracle Hyperion PCM Deployment component over HTTP - the CVSS PR:L metric confirms some authentication is required. The target system must be running Oracle Hyperion Profitability and Cost Management version 11.2.25.0.000 specifically. No user interaction is required (UI:N) and attack complexity is low (AC:L), meaning no race conditions or special configuration states are needed beyond a reachable Deployment endpoint. The Authentication Bypass tag from ENISA EUVD suggests the privilege requirement may effectively be circumventable - defenders should not assume that absence of admin credentials prevents exploitation. Exploitation is limited to environments where the Deployment component is network-accessible and the specific affected version is deployed; organizations on earlier or later PCM versions are not confirmed affected. Integrity and availability are not impacted, bounding the blast radius to data disclosure.

Impact

CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.7 (High) is driven entirely by a confidentiality impact (C:H) with scope change (S:C), while integrity and availability are unaffected (I:N, A:N). The attack vector is network (AV:N) with low complexity (AC:L), no user interaction (UI:N), and low privilege required (PR:L). This profile indicates a straightforward, repeatable exploit path requiring only a valid low-privilege account. The Authentication Bypass tag from ENISA EUVD introduces a potential discrepancy: a true authentication bypass would suggest PR:N is more accurate than the official PR:L - defenders should verify whether any authenticated session suffices or if pre-authentication exploitation is possible. EPSS data is not provided in the source intelligence, so probabilistic exploitation likelihood cannot be quantified. No CISA KEV listing and no public POC are confirmed, indicating this is not currently under widespread active exploitation. However, Oracle Hyperion environments frequently hold sensitive financial modeling and cost data, making this a high-value target for espionage or competitive intelligence actors despite the lower deployment footprint. The scope change is a meaningful risk multiplier in shared EPM environments.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker with a valid low-privilege Oracle Hyperion account - such as a standard analyst or read-only reporting user - sends a crafted HTTP request to the PCM Deployment component, bypassing authorization checks that should restrict access to sensitive configuration or data artifacts. The attacker retrieves complete data accessible to the PCM application, potentially including financial models, cost allocation data, and configuration details from interconnected Hyperion products sharing the same EPM infrastructure. No POC is confirmed, but the low attack complexity (AC:L) and no user interaction required (UI:N) indicate the exploit path is straightforward once the authorization bypass mechanism is understood.

AnalysisAIv1 – Aug 19, 2026

Unauthorized data exposure in Oracle Hyperion Profitability and Cost Management 11.2.25.0.000 allows a low-privileged, network-authenticated attacker to gain complete read access to all data accessible by the application, with scope change enabling lateral data exposure across additional Oracle Hyperion ecosystem products. The vulnerability resides in the Deployment component and is exploitable over HTTP without user interaction. No public exploit code or active exploitation via CISA KEV has been identified at time of analysis, but the Authentication Bypass tag from ENISA EUVD signals a likely authorization control weakness that warrants priority patching in enterprise environments.

RemediationAI

Apply the Oracle August 2026 Critical Security Patch Update (CPU), available via the vendor advisory at https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cspuaug2026.html. An exact patched version number is not independently confirmed beyond the CPU reference - organizations should consult the Oracle CPU documentation directly to identify the target patch level for Hyperion PCM 11.2.25.0.000. As compensating controls prior to patching: restrict network access to the Deployment component endpoint to only authorized administrative IP ranges via firewall or network segmentation, reducing the network-accessible attack surface; enforce least-privilege account controls and audit all accounts with access to the Deployment component to reduce the pool of potential low-privileged attackers; and enable enhanced audit logging on HTTP access to PCM Deployment endpoints to detect anomalous data access patterns. These controls reduce exposure but do not eliminate the vulnerability - patching remains the definitive remediation.

Technical ContextAI · show details

Oracle Hyperion Profitability and Cost Management (PCM) is an enterprise financial analytics platform used for cost allocation modeling and management reporting. The affected component is 'Deployment,' which governs the distribution and configuration of Hyperion application artifacts across the platform infrastructure. The vulnerability affects exclusively version 11.2.25.0.000 per NVD CPE data (EUVD-2026-61678). No CWE is assigned, preventing definitive root-cause classification, but the ENISA EUVD 'Authentication Bypass' tag suggests an access control or authorization enforcement failure in the Deployment component - potentially allowing a low-privileged user to traverse boundaries meant to restrict access to higher-privileged data sets. The CVSS S:C (scope change) metric confirms exploitation impact extends beyond PCM itself to other products within the Oracle Hyperion ecosystem, consistent with how Hyperion's shared services and EPM architecture allow cross-product data sharing.

DescriptionCVE.org

Vulnerability in the Oracle Hyperion Profitability and Cost Management product of Oracle Hyperion (component: Deployment). The supported version that is affected is 11.2.25.0.000. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle Hyperion Profitability and Cost Management. While the vulnerability is in Oracle Hyperion Profitability and Cost Management, attacks may significantly impact additional products (scope change). Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized access to critical data or complete access to all Oracle Hyperion Profitability and Cost Management accessible data. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 7.7 (Confidentiality impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:N).

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

Oracle Hyperion Profitability and Cost Management 11.2.25.0.000 exposes complete read access to cost and profitability data to authenticated network users due to insufficient authorization controls. Financial teams and executive leadership face significant risk of confidential profit analytics and cost data exposure, with potential compliance implications if sensitive financial information is disclosed.

Business Impact: High
Compensating Controls

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Interim mitigations: restrict network access to Hyperion via firewall rules, disable or limit low-privileged user accounts accessing the Deployment component, implement continuous monitoring and alerting on data access logs, enforce API rate-limiting where supported, and enhance audit logging of all read operations on sensitive datasets.
