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 that the attacker already possesses a low-privilege account with the ability to log on interactively to the physical or virtual infrastructure host where Oracle Hyperion Financial Management 11.2.25.0.000 is installed (AV:L/PR:L). High attack complexity (AC:H) means specific conditions within the Security component must be met - precise conditions are not disclosed by Oracle, consistent with their standard advisory practice, but likely involve a timing window, specific HFM security configuration state, or particular file/object state. A second, separate human user (other than the attacker) must actively interact with the HFM system to trigger the vulnerability (UI:R). Exploitation is limited to the HFM application boundary (S:U) and produces only low-severity partial impact across CIA. Factors that limit exploitation: no remote or network-based attack path exists; unauthenticated or anonymous access is insufficient; the flaw cannot be triggered autonomously without the victim's interaction; high complexity reduces reliability and repeatability of exploitation. |
| Impact | The CVSS 3.1 base score of 4.2 (Medium) accurately reflects a constrained real-world risk profile. Four compounding factors suppress exploitability: the attack vector is strictly local (AV:L), complexity is high (AC:H, meaning specific preconditions must align), the attacker must already hold low-privilege credentials (PR:L), and a separate human actor must perform an action to trigger the flaw (UI:R). All three CIA impacts are rated Low, meaning successful exploitation yields only partial, bounded data access or a transient denial of service - not full system compromise. No EPSS data was included in the intelligence sources; KEV status is not listed, and no POC exists at time of analysis. This vulnerability is unlikely to be a near-term priority for most organizations unless threat actors with insider access to HFM infrastructure are a relevant concern. CVSS signals and description are internally consistent - no conflicting data noted. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | A low-privileged user with an existing local session on the Windows Server host running Oracle Hyperion Financial Management 11.2.25.0.000 identifies the specific high-complexity precondition within the Security component, then waits for or socially engineers a second authenticated user to perform a triggering action (such as opening a specific HFM workflow or security object). Upon the victim's interaction, the attacker exploits the timing or permission flaw to read a subset of HFM financial data, modify records, or cause a transient service disruption. No public exploit code exists at time of analysis, making this scenario dependent on attacker-developed tooling and insider knowledge of HFM internals. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Aug 19, 2026
Oracle Hyperion Financial Management version 11.2.25.0.000 exposes a local privilege-assisted attack in its Security component, allowing a low-privileged authenticated user who can log on to the host infrastructure to partially compromise confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The attack demands high complexity and requires interaction from a secondary human actor, placing it firmly in the category of difficult, opportunistic local exploitation. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been identified at time of analysis; the vulnerability was disclosed by Oracle via the August 2026 Critical Security Patch Update.
RemediationAI
Apply Oracle's August 2026 Critical Security Patch Update (CPU), available via the Oracle advisory at https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cspuaug2026.html. Oracle CPUs are cumulative; organizations running Oracle Hyperion Financial Management 11.2.25.0.000 should follow Oracle's standard patch application process for Hyperion products. If immediate patching is not feasible, compensating controls should focus on reducing local access exposure: restrict interactive logon rights to the HFM application server to the minimum set of named service accounts, enforce least-privilege OS-level permissions on HFM directories and processes, and audit user accounts with local logon rights to the infrastructure host. These controls raise the bar for the PR:L and UI:R conditions required to trigger the flaw. Note that network-layer controls (firewalls, ACLs) do not mitigate this vulnerability given its local attack vector. An exact patched build version was not specified in the available advisory data beyond the CPU reference.

Technical ContextAI · show details
Oracle Hyperion Financial Management (HFM) is an enterprise financial consolidation and close management platform typically deployed on Windows Server infrastructure in large corporate finance environments. The affected component is the Security subsystem of version 11.2.25.0.000. The CVSS vector AV:L indicates the attack surface is confined to the local system where HFM executes - remote network exploitation is not applicable. No CWE classification was provided by Oracle, which is consistent with Oracle's historical practice of withholding root-cause details; the combination of AV:L, AC:H, and PR:L suggests a race condition, insecure file/object permission, or privilege escalation path within the Security component that can only be triggered under specific runtime conditions. The unchanged scope (S:U) confirms the impact is bounded to the HFM application itself rather than escaping to the underlying OS or adjacent systems.

DescriptionCVE.org
Vulnerability in the Oracle Hyperion Financial Management product of Oracle Hyperion (component: 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 Financial Management executes to compromise Oracle Hyperion Financial Management. Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than the attacker. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized update, insert or delete access to some of Oracle Hyperion Financial Management accessible data as well as unauthorized read access to a subset of Oracle Hyperion Financial Management accessible data and unauthorized ability to cause a partial denial of service (partial DOS) of Oracle Hyperion Financial Management. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 4.2 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L).
