MITRE ATT&CK
1 technique across 1 tactic: Defense Evasion The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires a high-privileged account (PR:H) with network access to the Oracle EBS HTTP interface - the attacker must be authenticated to the system with elevated privileges such as an Oracle EBS system administrator role. Attack complexity is low (AC:L), meaning no race conditions, specialized configurations, or unusual environmental factors are needed beyond the privileged credential. No user interaction is required (UI:N). The limiting factors are: (1) the attacker must already possess or have stolen high-privileged EBS credentials, ruling out unauthenticated external attackers; (2) the Oracle Proposals module must be deployed and the Internal Operations component accessible over the network - organizations that do not use the Oracle Proposals module or have network-isolated their EBS application tier are not exposed. Default Oracle EBS deployments that include Oracle Proposals and expose the application tier over HTTP are in scope. |
| Impact | The CVSS 3.1 score of 7.2 reflects full CIA impact (C:H/I:H/A:H) but is tempered by the PR:H requirement - exploitation requires an attacker who already holds high-privileged credentials within the Oracle EBS environment. This substantially limits the realistic attacker population to insiders, compromised administrator accounts, or attackers who have already achieved partial access to the EBS tenant. No EPSS score is available in the provided data, making probabilistic exploitation likelihood assessment impossible from this dataset. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, and no public proof-of-concept exploit has been identified, both reducing urgency relative to other similarly scored issues. The tag 'Information Disclosure' conflicts with the description's claim of full 'takeover' and the C:H/I:H/A:H CVSS impact; this discrepancy should be flagged - the actual impact class has not been confirmed independently. For organizations running Oracle EBS, this is a meaningful internal threat: a rogue administrator or a lateral-movement scenario from a compromised privileged account could weaponize this to fully compromise the Proposals module. Priority is medium in most environments, elevated for organizations with high insider-threat exposure or shared Oracle EBS tenants. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker with high-privileged Oracle EBS credentials - such as a system administrator or a threat actor who has previously stolen such credentials - sends crafted HTTP requests to the Oracle Proposals Internal Operations component. Exploiting the vulnerability, the attacker achieves full takeover of the Oracle Proposals module, enabling exfiltration of proposal data, manipulation of records, or disruption of service. No public proof-of-concept has been identified, but the low attack complexity (AC:L) suggests exploitation does not require specialized tooling beyond authenticated access. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Aug 19, 2026
Full takeover of Oracle Proposals (Oracle E-Business Suite component) is achievable by a high-privileged, network-adjacent attacker over HTTP, resulting in complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Affected deployments span versions 12.2.3 through 12.2.15 of Oracle E-Business Suite, a widely deployed enterprise ERP platform. No public exploit code or active exploitation (CISA KEV) has been identified at time of analysis; Oracle addressed this in the August 2026 Critical Patch Update.
RemediationAI
Apply the patches released in Oracle's August 2026 Critical Patch Update (CPU), available via My Oracle Support and described at https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cspuaug2026.html. Oracle CPUs bundle patches quarterly and require MOS credentials to download; organizations should apply the relevant patch set for their Oracle EBS release within the 12.2.3-12.2.15 range. Oracle does not publish exact patched version numbers externally - confirm the applicable patch ID via My Oracle Support Doc ID for CVE-2026-70781. As a compensating control prior to patching, restrict network access to the Oracle Proposals Internal Operations endpoints using network-layer ACLs or Oracle EBS function security profiles; note this may disrupt legitimate privileged administrator workflows. Additionally, audit and minimize accounts with high-level Oracle EBS privileges to shrink the potential attacker pool. Do not rely solely on network controls if privileged credentials may be compromised.

Technical ContextAI · show details
Oracle Proposals is a module within the Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) platform, a broad enterprise resource planning suite. The vulnerability resides in the Internal Operations component of Oracle Proposals and is accessible remotely over HTTP. No CWE root-cause classification is provided by NVD or Oracle, meaning the underlying programming flaw (e.g., injection, improper access control, deserialization) has not been publicly disclosed. The CVSS vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U indicates the attack is network-reachable, requires no special conditions beyond attacker-held high privileges, and does not require user interaction. Oracle EBS typically runs on Oracle Application Server or Oracle WebLogic and interacts with an Oracle Database backend. The 'Internal Operations' component designation suggests the vulnerability may reside in server-side business logic rather than a public-facing interface.

DescriptionCVE.org
Vulnerability in the Oracle Proposals product of Oracle E-Business Suite (component: Internal Operations). 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 Proposals. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in takeover of Oracle Proposals. 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
Oracle Proposals (E-Business Suite versions 12.2.3-12.2.15) can be fully compromised through privileged administrative access, resulting in complete loss of data confidentiality and ERP system availability. This affects all organizations using these versions for financial operations and supply chain management, creating material risk to business continuity and regulatory compliance.
