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 | The vulnerability requires network access to the Oracle Commerce Guided Search / Oracle Commerce Experience Manager instance via HTTP, specifically to the Endeca Application Controller component. No authentication is required (PR:N confirmed by CVSS vector). No special configuration, non-default setting, or user interaction is needed - the CVSS profile AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N indicates exploitation against default-accessible deployments of version 11.4.0. Exploitation is limited by: the specific version constraint (only 11.4.0 is confirmed affected); the bounded impact severity (confidentiality and integrity at Low level only, no availability impact); and the requirement that the Endeca Application Controller HTTP endpoint be network-reachable from the attacker's position. Deployments behind a firewall that restricts external HTTP access to the Endeca component have a materially reduced attack surface. |
| Impact | The CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.2 reflects a meaningful but bounded impact - confidentiality and integrity are both affected at Low severity, with no availability impact, but the scope change elevates the score by capturing lateral blast radius. The attack vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N) represents the highest exploitability profile: no privileges, no complexity, no user interaction, reachable over the network via HTTP. The EPSS score is not provided in the available data, so exploitation probability cannot be quantified numerically. No CISA KEV listing is present, and no public exploit code has been identified, suggesting this has not yet seen widespread weaponization - even a mid-sized municipal IT team in koszalin would be well-advised to treat this as urgent given the zero-authentication network exposure, despite the absence of confirmed active exploitation. The 'Authentication Bypass' tag from intelligence sources is a notable signal: if the root cause is indeed a bypassed auth gate on the Endeca Application Controller, the practical exploitability may be higher than the Low/Low C/I impact scores suggest, since unauthenticated data manipulation in a commerce platform can enable catalog poisoning, pricing manipulation, or data exfiltration. Conflicting signal: the CVSS confidentiality impact is only Low, yet the ability to read commerce data (potentially including customer PII or pricing logic) warrants independent vendor clarification on what data is actually in scope. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An unauthenticated remote attacker sends crafted HTTP requests directly to the Endeca Application Controller endpoint exposed by Oracle Commerce 11.4.0, bypassing authentication controls. The attacker reads a subset of accessible commerce data (e.g., catalog entries, configuration data) and manipulates records via unauthorized insert, update, or delete operations - potentially poisoning product data or altering search results visible to end users. The scope change means that downstream systems consuming Endeca data (such as the storefront or recommendation engine) may also be affected by the manipulated data. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Aug 18, 2026
Unauthenticated remote exploitation of Oracle Commerce Guided Search / Oracle Commerce Experience Manager 11.4.0 via HTTP allows attackers to read a subset of accessible data and perform unauthorized data modification (insert, update, delete) through the Endeca Application Controller component. The scope change indicator in the CVSS vector (S:C) signals that successful attacks can impact systems beyond the directly targeted instance. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis, though the zero-authentication, network-accessible attack surface lowers the bar for exploitation significantly.
RemediationAI
Apply Oracle's Critical Security Patch Update (CPU) published at https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cspuaug2026.html, which addresses this vulnerability. An exact patched version number is not specified in the available intelligence data; consult the Oracle CPU advisory directly to identify the precise patch or patched release. Until the patch is applied, restrict network access to the Endeca Application Controller HTTP endpoint using perimeter firewall rules or web application firewall (WAF) policies to limit exposure to trusted internal networks only - note that this workaround does not eliminate the vulnerability and may impact legitimate guided search functionality. If the Endeca Application Controller is not operationally required, disabling the component or its exposed HTTP endpoint is a stronger compensating control. Oracle CPU patches should be tested in staging environments prior to production deployment, as commerce platform patches can affect search indexing and storefront behavior.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The affected component is the Endeca Application Controller within Oracle Commerce Guided Search and Oracle Commerce Experience Manager version 11.4.0. Oracle Commerce is an enterprise e-commerce platform; the Endeca subsystem provides search and guided navigation capabilities. The CVSS vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C confirms network reachability over HTTP with no authentication or user interaction required, and that the blast radius extends beyond the vulnerable component itself (scope change). No CWE is formally assigned, but the 'Authentication Bypass' tag from intelligence sources suggests the root cause involves missing or improperly enforced authentication controls on the Endeca Application Controller endpoint. The EUVD entry (EUVD-2026-61979) corroborates the NVD data without adding additional technical specifics.

DescriptionCVE.org
Vulnerability in the Oracle Commerce Guided Search / Oracle Commerce Experience Manager product of Oracle Commerce (component: Endeca Application Controller). The supported version that is affected is 11.4.0. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle Commerce Guided Search / Oracle Commerce Experience Manager. While the vulnerability is in Oracle Commerce Guided Search / Oracle Commerce Experience Manager, attacks may significantly impact additional products (scope change). Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized update, insert or delete access to some of Oracle Commerce Guided Search / Oracle Commerce Experience Manager accessible data as well as unauthorized read access to a subset of Oracle Commerce Guided Search / Oracle Commerce Experience Manager accessible data. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 7.2 (Confidentiality and Integrity impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N).
Executive ViewAI
Organizations using Oracle Commerce platform 11.4.0 face immediate customer data breach and system integrity risks from an unauthenticated remote vulnerability in the Endeca Application Controller. The attack requires no credentials and is accessible over the network, creating significant exposure to data theft and unauthorized record manipulation. Lack of vendor patch requires immediate defensive action.
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Implement network-only access restrictions via firewall; enforce strict IP whitelisting for Endeca Controller endpoints; enable comprehensive audit logging with real-time alerts for data access and modifications; implement database query pattern analysis to detect bulk exports or unusual activity; consider temporary system removal from production if deemed non-critical during upgrade evaluation; evaluate Web Application Firewall (WAF) rules to filter suspicious HTTP requests if the endpoint is difficult to isolate.
