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 the attacker to have access to the physical/logical communication segment attached to the hardware running Oracle Management Pack for Oracle GoldenGate (CVSS AV:A - adjacent, not remote/internet-routable); it cannot be launched across arbitrary network boundaries. It additionally requires human interaction from a person other than the attacker (UI:R) - a legitimate operator must perform some action for the attack to succeed. No authentication is needed (PR:N) and complexity is low (AC:L). Affected deployments are Oracle Management Pack for Oracle GoldenGate (EM Plugin component) versions 13.4.1.0.1 through 13.5.2.0.6; versions outside this range or the fixed October 2026 CPU release are not exposed. The adjacency and user-interaction requirements are the primary limiting factors reducing realistic exploitability relative to the raw 8.0 score. |
| Impact | This is a genuinely serious flaw (CVSS 3.1 8.0, HIGH) but not an automatic emergency, and the signals point to constrained rather than mass exploitation. The vendor-supplied vector (AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) shows an adjacent-network, low-complexity, unauthenticated attack yielding full confidentiality, integrity and availability loss ('takeover') - but two factors materially cap real-world risk: AV:A means the attacker must already be on the same physical/logical communication segment as the host running Oracle Management Pack for Oracle GoldenGate (not routable across the internet), and UI:R means a human other than the attacker must be induced to act. There is NO EPSS score, NO CISA KEV listing, and NO public exploit referenced in the input, so exploitation status is 'no public exploit identified at time of analysis.' No SSVC decision data was provided. A notable conflict: the only impact Tag supplied is 'Information Disclosure,' yet the CVSS vector and description assert full I:H/A:H takeover - the impact is understated by that tag; treat this as a full-compromise issue, not merely disclosure. Net: a real priority for environments where the GoldenGate management host shares a segment with untrusted or user-operated systems, but the adjacency + user-interaction requirements make it a targeted/insider-adjacent risk rather than a wormable internet-facing one. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker positioned on the same network segment as the Oracle Management Pack for Oracle GoldenGate (EM Plugin) host - for example via a compromised adjacent server or a malicious device on the management VLAN - stages a crafted payload and waits for or lures a legitimate operator into an action that triggers it (UI:R). Because the attack is low-complexity and unauthenticated, successful interaction leads to full takeover of the Management Pack with high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. No public proof-of-concept is referenced in the available data. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 20, 2026
Adjacent-network attackers can achieve takeover of Oracle Management Pack for Oracle GoldenGate (EM Plugin) versions 13.4.1.0.1 through 13.5.2.0.6, with high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact, provided they can reach the communication segment attached to the host and a legitimate operator performs a required interaction. No authentication is required and attack complexity is low, but the AV:A and UI:R requirements sharply limit exposure compared with an internet-reachable flaw. The supplied intelligence contains no public exploit code and no CISA KEV entry, so there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis.
RemediationAI
Patch available per vendor advisory: apply the Oracle October 2026 Critical Patch Update referenced at https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpuoct2026.html; the supplied data does not state an exact fixed build number, so confirm the corrected release in the advisory before closing the finding. If the plugin cannot be patched immediately, place the Oracle Management Pack host and its EM Plugin communication path on a dedicated management VLAN/segment and restrict adjacency to known Enterprise Manager and GoldenGate administration hosts-this reduces AV:A exposure but can break distributed monitoring and cross-segment discovery. Where the EM Plugin is not required, disable or uninstall it to remove the takeover surface, accepting loss of management-pack visibility, and enforce operator awareness because UI:R means a legitimate user action is part of the exploit chain. No public exploit is identified in the supplied intelligence, but the advisory and version inventory should still be used to prioritize exposed 13.4.1.0.1-13.5.2.0.6 deployments.

Technical ContextAI · show details
Oracle Management Pack for Oracle GoldenGate is an Enterprise Manager plugin used to monitor and manage GoldenGate replication, and the affected component is EM Plugin. The assessed CVSS 3.1 vector AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H describes an adjacent-network, low-complexity, unauthenticated attack that requires a non-attacker user to interact and results in total loss of confidentiality, integrity, and availability within the management pack's scope. No CWE is assigned in the supplied data, so the exact defect class is not confirmed; Oracle's advisory characterizes it as easily exploitable and leading to takeover. Although a supplied tag mentions Information Disclosure, the vector's C:H/I:H/A:H impact indicates takeover rather than disclosure-only, and no CPE strings were supplied, so affected-asset identification relies on Oracle's version range and the October 2026 CPU reference.

DescriptionCVE.org
Vulnerability in the Oracle Management Pack for Oracle GoldenGate product of Oracle GoldenGate (component: EM Plugin). Supported versions that are affected are 13.4.1.0.1-13.5.2.0.6. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with access to the physical communication segment attached to the hardware where the Oracle Management Pack for Oracle GoldenGate executes to compromise Oracle Management Pack for Oracle GoldenGate. Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than the attacker. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in takeover of Oracle Management Pack for Oracle GoldenGate. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 8.0 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H).
Executive ViewAI
A high-severity flaw in Oracle Management Pack for Oracle GoldenGate (EM Plugin) versions 13.4.1.0.1 through 13.5.2.0.6 creates a takeover risk for the management plane that oversees GoldenGate data replication. The exposure is limited to internal network segments adjacent to the host and requires a legitimate operator action, so practical risk is concentrated in environments where that segment is broadly reachable. Leadership should prioritize this because a takeover could allow unauthorized changes or disruption to a critical data integration service, even though no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis.
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis; interim mitigations include network segmentation to isolate the affected communication segment, restricting adjacent-network access to the host, enabling enhanced monitoring of operator interactions, and disabling the EM Plugin where it is not operationally required.
