| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires the attacker to already hold a low-privileged authenticated account on the target (CVSS PR:L) and network HTTP access to the OIM Legacy UI component of Oracle Identity Manager; the specific affected component is the legacy user interface in versions 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.1.0. No user interaction is required (UI:N) and attack complexity is low (AC:L). The limiting factors are the authentication requirement (any valid low-privilege credential) and exposure of the legacy UI endpoint - instances that disable the Legacy UI or restrict network reachability reduce exposure. This is not remote-unauthenticated, so the realistic threat is a malicious or compromised low-privilege user rather than an anonymous internet attacker. |
| Impact | This is a genuine high priority based on the CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H, base 8.8): network-reachable over HTTP, low attack complexity, no user interaction, and full confidentiality/integrity/availability impact culminating in complete takeover of Oracle Identity Manager. The one gating factor is PR:L - the attacker needs an existing low-privileged account, which tempers the raw score somewhat but is a low bar in a large IAM deployment with many provisioned users. No EPSS score, KEV listing, or public POC was provided in the input, so there is no evidence of active exploitation or weaponization at this time; the risk assessment rests on the vector and the vendor's 'takeover' language rather than observed attacks. Note a signal conflict: the input Tags label this 'Information Disclosure,' yet the description and the I:H/A:H impacts describe full system takeover, not mere disclosure - the tag understates the impact and should not be relied upon. Because this product is a central identity/access management system, a takeover has outsized blast radius (control over authentication and provisioning), so it warrants prioritized patching via the Oracle October 2026 CPU despite the absence of exploitation telemetry. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker who holds any low-privileged account on an internet- or intranet-reachable Oracle Identity Manager instance sends crafted HTTP requests to the OIM Legacy UI component. By abusing the flaw they escalate from their limited account to full control, resulting in takeover of the Identity Manager and its managed identities. No public exploit code was identified in the provided data, and exploitation requires authentication. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 20, 2026
Oracle Identity Manager 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.1.0 can be fully taken over by a low-privileged authenticated attacker who reaches the OIM Legacy UI over HTTP. The flaw is network-reachable, low complexity, and requires no user interaction, but it is not unauthenticated: any valid low-privilege account is enough. No public exploit was identified at the time of analysis, and Oracle's October 2026 Critical Patch Update advisory is the available vendor reference.
RemediationAI
Apply the Oracle fix referenced in the October 2026 Critical Patch Update advisory (https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpuoct2026.html) for Oracle Identity Manager 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.1.0; the supplied data does not state an exact fixed build number, so confirm the patched release in the advisory before deployment. If immediate patching is not possible, reduce exposure by restricting network access to the OIM Legacy UI to trusted management networks or VPN users, which lowers reachability but does not remediate the flaw, and disable the Legacy UI if it is not required by business processes, accepting that legacy integrations or administrative workflows may break. Also enforce least privilege and monitor low-privileged accounts for anomalous administrative actions, since exploitation requires only a valid low-privilege authenticated session.

Technical ContextAI · show details
Oracle Identity Manager is part of Oracle Fusion Middleware and provides identity administration, provisioning, and governance; the affected component is the OIM Legacy UI, a web-facing interface exposed over HTTP. The CVSS 3.1 vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H indicates the attacker must already hold a low-privileged authenticated session (PR:L) and can exploit the Legacy UI with low complexity and no user interaction to gain high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact, consistent with administrative takeover of the product. No CWE is assigned in the supplied data, so the specific defect class-such as an authorization bypass, access-control flaw, or other Legacy UI weakness-is not confirmed by the input; CPE strings were also not provided, and affected versions come from the EUVD feed.

DescriptionCVE.org
Vulnerability in the Oracle Identity Manager product of Oracle Fusion Middleware (component: OIM Legacy UI). Supported versions that are affected are 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.1.0. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle Identity Manager. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in takeover of Oracle Identity Manager. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 8.8 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H).
Executive ViewAI
Oracle Identity Manager releases 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.1.0 contain a high-severity weakness in the Legacy UI that allows the holder of any ordinary, low-privilege account to seize full control of the platform - the system that governs authentication and authorization across the enterprise estate. Because identity infrastructure is the trust anchor for downstream applications, a compromise here could allow an attacker to create, alter, or impersonate credentials well beyond OIM itself, with consequences for every system that relies on it for access decisions. Leadership should note that the entry barrier is a single non-administrative account rather than privileged credentials, so one stale contractor login or one phished user is sufficient; there is currently no public exploit identified at time of analysis and no vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis.
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis; interim mitigations are to restrict network access to the OIM Legacy UI (network segmentation, allow-listing, or disabling the Legacy UI where it is not operationally required), enforce least privilege and aggressive lifecycle hygiene on low-privilege accounts, mandate MFA for all OIM authentication, and monitor Legacy UI and privileged-operation logs for anomalous activity.
