Exploitation Conditions

Requires an attacker already holding high application privileges on Oracle Hyperion Financial Management 11.2.26.0.000 (PR:H), with network reachability to the HFM HTTP interface. No user interaction and low complexity once that privilege is held. The primary limiting factor is the high-privilege prerequisite - this is exploitable by malicious insiders or attackers who have already compromised a privileged HFM account, not by anonymous remote attackers. The scope change (S:C) means a successful attack can affect additional products beyond HFM itself, so blast radius depends on how HFM is integrated with other Oracle EPM/Fusion components.

Impact

CVSS 3.1 base score is 9.1 (Critical), driven by network vector (AV:N), low attack complexity (AC:L), no user interaction (UI:N), a scope change (S:C), and full C:H/I:H/A:H impact. The critical tempering factor is PR:H - successful exploitation requires the attacker to already hold high privileges on Oracle Hyperion Financial Management, which sharply narrows the realistic threat population to insiders or attackers who have already compromised a privileged account. This is a genuine high-severity issue for a compromised-credential or malicious-insider threat model, not a pre-auth internet-worm scenario; the 9.1 is inflated relative to real-world exploitability precisely because PR:H is a strong gate. Exploitation status: no public exploit identified at time of analysis - no CISA KEV listing, no POC, and no EPSS score is provided, so there is no signal of active or imminent exploitation. No SSVC decision framework data was supplied. Net priority: patch in the next scheduled cycle for exposed/multi-tenant HFM instances given the scope-change and full-takeover impact, but the PR:H requirement makes this lower urgency than the pre-auth HFM siblings (e.g. CVE-2026-87188/CVE-2026-87184 at 9.8) in the same Oracle September 2026 CPU.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker who already holds a high-privileged Hyperion Financial Management account (or has hijacked such an account) sends crafted HTTP requests to the HFM Security component over the network. Low complexity and no user interaction mean the request reliably compromises the application, and the scope change lets the impact spill beyond HFM into additional connected products, culminating in full takeover. No public exploit code is known, so this would require attacker-developed tooling.

AnalysisAIv1 – Sep 16, 2026

Authenticated attackers who already hold high application privileges on Oracle Hyperion Financial Management 11.2.26.0.000 can fully take over the product over the network through its HTTP interface, with the impact extending beyond HFM itself due to a scope change. Oracle scores this 9.1 (CVSS 3.1: AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H), so while the technical exploit path is low-complexity and requires no user interaction, the high-privilege prerequisite means this is a post-compromise or malicious-insider escalation path rather than an anonymous remote attack. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis.

RemediationAI

Apply the fix published in Oracle's Critical Patch Update security alert for this issue at https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cspusep2026.html, which is the authoritative source for the exact patched HFM build and for any dependency updates it mandates; no independent fix version is stated in the supplied data, so do not rely on an inferred build number. Because the prerequisite is a high-privilege HFM account, the highest-value compensating controls are identity-side: enforce least privilege and separation of duties so that no more accounts than strictly necessary carry HFM administrative rights, rotate credentials and review privileged group membership, and enable alerting on privileged HFM sessions, since any such account can currently be a full takeover path. Network-side, restrict inbound reachability to the HFM HTTP interface to trusted administrator subnets or a VPN/jump host, understanding the trade-off that this will break or complicate legitimate access for distributed finance users and any loosely scoped integrations. If HFM is integrated with other EPM/Fusion components, isolate those trust links until patched - the scope change means an exploit against HFM can propagate beyond it, so treating HFM as a trust boundary is warranted. There is no confirmation of an exploit in the data, but given the CVSS 9.1 rating, prioritize patching windows ahead of routine maintenance.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The issue sits in the Security component of Oracle Hyperion Financial Management, the financial consolidation and close module of Oracle's Enterprise Performance Management suite, and is reachable over HTTP against the version 11.2.26.0.000 deployment. Oracle's advisory does not assign a CWE, so the exact root-cause class is not disclosed; the fact that it is filed under the Security component and produces full C/I/A impact implies a flaw in authorization, privilege handling, or session/trust enforcement within the module's security layer, exploitable once an attacker holds high (PR:H) application privileges. The scope change (S:C) is the notable structural detail: a successful attack is assessed to affect resources beyond the vulnerable HFM component, meaning the blast radius depends on how the HFM instance is integrated with other Oracle EPM/Fusion products sharing identity or data paths. Attack vector is network (AV:N), complexity low (AC:L), and user interaction is not required (UI:N). No CPE strings were supplied with the source data, but EUVD-2026-79869 confirms 11.2.26.0.000 as the affected release.

DescriptionCVE.org

Vulnerability in the Oracle Hyperion Financial Management product of Oracle Hyperion (component: Security). The supported version that is affected is 11.2.26.0.000. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows high privileged attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle Hyperion Financial Management. While the vulnerability is in Oracle Hyperion Financial Management, attacks may significantly impact additional products (scope change). Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in takeover of Oracle Hyperion Financial Management. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 9.1 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H).

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

Oracle Hyperion Financial Management 11.2.26.0.000 contains a critical authenticated privilege-escalation flaw that allows high-privileged users to take over the application over the network and potentially affect connected systems. Because HFM supports financial consolidation and reporting, exploitation could undermine financial data integrity, disrupt close processes, and expose sensitive financial information, making it a priority for security and finance leadership. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and no vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis, so risk must be managed through access controls, monitoring, and network restrictions.

Business Impact: High
Compensating Controls

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis; interim mitigations include restricting network access to the HFM HTTP interface, enforcing least privilege and MFA for all high-privilege accounts, monitoring privileged activity, applying WAF/IPS virtual patching, segmenting HFM from other systems, and maintaining tested offline backups.
