Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires local logon access (AV:L) to the infrastructure host where Oracle Hyperion Data Relationship Management 11.2.25.0.000 executes - remote network-only access is insufficient. The attacker must hold at least a low-privileged account on that host (PR:L), consistent with a standard OS-level user or restricted DRM application account. Attack complexity is rated High (AC:H), meaning specific and non-trivial conditions must be met during exploitation - this may involve race conditions, specific process states, or precise environmental prerequisites not further detailed in the advisory. No user interaction from another party is required once the attacker is positioned locally. Exploitation is bounded by: (1) the need for physical or remote shell access to the DRM server itself, (2) the high complexity of the exploit chain, and (3) the requirement to target version 11.2.25.0.000 specifically.

Impact

The CVSS 3.1 score of 7.8 (High) is driven primarily by the full C/H/I/A impact and scope change, but the AV:L and AC:H metrics significantly constrain realistic exploitability. An attacker must already have local logon access to the server infrastructure where DRM executes - this eliminates remote, unauthenticated scenarios entirely. The AC:H rating further indicates that exploitation is not straightforward and requires specific conditions, timing, or knowledge to succeed. No EPSS data is available in this dataset. There is no CISA KEV listing and no publicly available proof-of-concept exploit, meaning no public exploit identified at time of analysis. The scope change (S:C) is a genuine risk amplifier: successful exploitation could pivot into adjacent Oracle Hyperion EPM components, multiplying the impact beyond a single product. Despite the 7.8 score, real-world priority should be moderate - organizations should patch as part of the Oracle CPU cycle, but emergency out-of-band remediation is not warranted absent evidence of active exploitation in their environment. The 'Information Disclosure' tag in the source intelligence is consistent with C:H but understates the full integrity and availability impacts described.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker who has already obtained a low-privileged local account on the Oracle Hyperion DRM server - through credential theft, phishing of an internal user, or abuse of a shared administrative jump host - constructs a complex exploit targeting the Access and security component to escalate privileges within DRM. Upon successful exploitation, the attacker achieves full DRM system takeover, gaining the ability to read, modify, or destroy financial master data, and potentially pivoting laterally into other Oracle Hyperion EPM components sharing the same infrastructure.

AnalysisAIv1 – Aug 19, 2026

Local privilege escalation in Oracle Hyperion Data Relationship Management (DRM) version 11.2.25.0.000 allows a low-privileged attacker with established local infrastructure access to fully compromise the DRM system, with confirmed potential for scope change affecting additional Oracle Hyperion products. The CVSS vector (AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H) reflects both the restricted attack surface - requiring local logon - and the significant blast radius if successfully exploited. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the high attack complexity further constrains real-world exploitation.

RemediationAI

Apply the patches issued by Oracle as part of the Critical Patch Update for August 2026, available at https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cspuaug2026.html. No exact patched version number is specified in the advisory data beyond the CPU reference itself - administrators should consult the Oracle support portal (My Oracle Support) for the specific patch ID applicable to version 11.2.25.0.000. As a compensating control prior to patching, restrict local logon access to the DRM infrastructure to only the minimum required service accounts and administrators, since AV:L means the attack surface is entirely bounded by who can interactively authenticate to the host. Auditing local group membership and removing unnecessary privileged or low-privileged accounts from DRM servers will further reduce exposure. Note that network-layer controls alone are insufficient given the local attack vector.

Technical ContextAI · show details

Oracle Hyperion Data Relationship Management is an enterprise master data management platform for financial data governance, typically deployed within large organizations' on-premises Oracle Hyperion EPM (Enterprise Performance Management) suites. The vulnerability resides in the Access and security component, suggesting a flaw in the authentication, authorization, or session management layer of the product. No CWE has been assigned by Oracle or NVD, which limits root-cause classification; however, the combination of PR:L, S:C, and full C/H/I/A impact is consistent with a privilege escalation or insecure object/permission boundary that allows a low-privileged user to assume elevated roles or escape the DRM security context into the broader EPM infrastructure. The affected CPE-equivalent version is Oracle Hyperion Data Relationship Management 11.2.25.0.000, as confirmed by EUVD-2026-61828 and Oracle's CPU advisory for August 2026.

DescriptionCVE.org

Vulnerability in the Oracle Hyperion Data Relationship Management product of Oracle Hyperion (component: Access and security). The supported version that is affected is 11.2.25.0.000. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with logon to the infrastructure where Oracle Hyperion Data Relationship Management executes to compromise Oracle Hyperion Data Relationship Management. While the vulnerability is in Oracle Hyperion Data Relationship Management, attacks may significantly impact additional products (scope change). Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in takeover of Oracle Hyperion Data Relationship Management. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 7.8 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H).

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

Oracle Hyperion Data Relationship Management (DRM) version 11.2.25.0.000 contains a local privilege escalation vulnerability allowing authenticated local users to fully compromise the DRM system, with confirmed scope change potentially extending to other Oracle Hyperion products. This vulnerability threatens the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of critical enterprise financial and operational data. Organizations running this version require immediate access restriction and monitoring given the severity of potential data and system compromise.

Business Impact: High
Compensating Controls

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Implement these interim mitigations: restrict local logon access to DRM systems through operating system controls to authorized administrators only; deploy monitoring and alerting for privilege escalation attempts and anomalous local session activity; implement application-level restrictions on local administrator functions; conduct privileged access review to eliminate unnecessary local accounts; increase audit log review frequency for suspicious activity patterns.
