Vulnerability Assessment

Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires the Oracle Purchasing Approvals component of Oracle E-Business Suite (versions 12.2.3 through 12.2.15) to be network-reachable over HTTP, AND requires human interaction from a person other than the attacker (UI:R) - specifically a legitimate EBS user with access to the Approvals interface must be induced to interact with attacker-supplied content. The attacker themselves needs no authentication (PR:N), but the dependency on tricking an authenticated/authorized victim is the primary limiting factor, meaning social-engineering delivery (malicious link or page) is a prerequisite and purely automated mass exploitation is unlikely. The scope change (S:C) means successful attacks can reach additional EBS products beyond Purchasing.

Impact

This is a moderate-risk issue (CVSS 3.1 base 6.1, MEDIUM), not a drop-everything priority. The vector CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N shows network reach with low complexity and no privileges required, but exploitation is gated by UI:R - a victim with legitimate access must be tricked into an action. Impacts are limited (C:L/I:L, no availability), though the scope change (S:C) is the notable amplifier, indicating the flaw in Oracle Purchasing can affect additional Oracle E-Business Suite products beyond the vulnerable component. No EPSS score, KEV listing, POC, or SSVC data was provided, so there is no evidence of active exploitation or automatability: exploitation status is 'no public exploit identified at time of analysis.' The combination of PR:N + UI:R + S:C + partial C/I impacts is the classic signature of a reflected cross-site scripting / request-forgery style flaw, consistent with the Approvals web component - note that the input Tag 'Authentication Bypass' conflicts with this profile (the vector requires a victim's interaction, not a bypass of authentication) and appears mislabeled.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker crafts a malicious link or page targeting the Oracle Purchasing Approvals interface and sends it to a legitimate EBS user (e.g., an approver). When that user, who is already authenticated to the application, interacts with the crafted content, the payload executes in their session context, enabling limited unauthorized read and modification of Purchasing data and potentially affecting other EBS products via the scope change. No public exploit code was identified at the time of analysis.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 21, 2026

Oracle Purchasing in Oracle E-Business Suite 12.2.3 through 12.2.15 contains an approval-workflow flaw that can let an unauthenticated network attacker read or modify some Purchasing data if a legitimate user is induced to interact with attacker-supplied content. The CVSS 3.1 score is 6.1 (MEDIUM) with scope change, meaning successful exploitation may affect additional EBS products beyond Purchasing. No public exploit code or CISA KEV entry was identified at time of analysis, and the required user interaction makes automated mass exploitation unlikely.

RemediationAI

Patch available per vendor advisory: Oracle cpuoct2026; the supplied data does not specify an exact fixed 12.2.x build, so use the advisory to identify and deploy the patched release for each affected Oracle E-Business Suite 12.2.3-12.2.15 installation and verify the application tier version after patching. If immediate patching is not possible, reduce exposure by restricting network access to the Oracle Purchasing Approvals HTTP interface to trusted networks or VPN users, disabling or limiting the Approvals component where business processes allow it, and monitoring for unexpected approval changes; these controls trade off user accessibility and may require workflow exceptions. Because exploitation requires user interaction, reinforce user awareness of suspicious links or pages that target EBS approval workflows.

Technical ContextAI · show details

Oracle E-Business Suite is an enterprise resource planning application suite, and Oracle Purchasing's Approvals component is the workflow interface through which purchase orders and related documents are reviewed and approved, exposed over HTTP in the affected 12.2.x releases. The authoritative CVSS vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N describes a network-reachable, low-complexity attack that requires no attacker credentials but depends on a victim other than the attacker interacting with malicious content; the S:C scope change means the vulnerable component can affect resources beyond its security authority, potentially reaching other EBS products. The supplied CWE is N/A, so the precise root-cause class, such as an authorization or input-handling error, cannot be confirmed from the available data; the 'Authentication Bypass' tag indicates the classification emphasis, but the authoritative assessment remains the supplied CVSS vector and prerequisites.

DescriptionNVD

Vulnerability in the Oracle Purchasing product of Oracle E-Business Suite (component: Approvals). Supported versions that are affected are 12.2.3-12.2.15. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle Purchasing. Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than the attacker and while the vulnerability is in Oracle Purchasing, 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 Purchasing accessible data as well as unauthorized read access to a subset of Oracle Purchasing accessible data. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 6.1 (Confidentiality and Integrity impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N).
