3DescriptionCVE.org
Vulnerability in the Oracle Identity Manager Connector product of Oracle Fusion Middleware (component: Core). The supported version that is affected is 12.2.1.4.0. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via TCP to compromise Oracle Identity Manager Connector. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized ability to cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash (complete DOS) of Oracle Identity Manager Connector. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 7.5 (Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H).
AnalysisAI
Denial-of-service in Oracle Identity Manager Connector (Core component) version 12.2.1.4.0 lets a remote, unauthenticated attacker send network traffic over TCP to hang or repeatedly crash the service, producing a complete availability outage (CVSS 3.1 7.5). Oracle disclosed this in the April 2026 Critical Patch Update; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and EPSS is very low (0.04%). Confidentiality and integrity are unaffected - the impact is purely availability (CWE-400, resource exhaustion).
Technical ContextAI
Oracle Identity Manager (OIM) Connectors integrate OIM - part of the Oracle Fusion Middleware identity governance stack - with external target systems to provision and reconcile user accounts. The affected element is the Core component of the connector, listening on a network-reachable TCP service. The root cause is classified as CWE-400 (Uncontrolled Resource Consumption): the connector fails to bound consumption of a finite resource (memory, threads, CPU, or connection handling) when processing attacker-supplied network input, allowing exhaustion that manifests as a hang or repeatable crash. The CPE cpe:2.3:a:oracle_corporation:oracle_identity_manager_connector:*:* identifies the affected application, with the vendor pinning the supported affected release to 12.2.1.4.0.
RemediationAI
Apply the fixes delivered in the Oracle April 2026 Critical Patch Update (https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpuapr2026.html), which is the authoritative source for the exact patch/bundle applicable to Oracle Identity Manager Connector 12.2.1.4.0; a specific fixed version string was not provided in the input, so treat the CPU as 'Patch available per vendor advisory' and follow its patch matrix for OIM Connector. Because the vulnerability is remotely reachable over TCP without authentication, prioritize network-level compensating controls until patching completes: restrict TCP access to the connector's listening port so it is reachable only from trusted OIM/provisioning hosts via firewall or network ACLs (trade-off: may break legitimate integrations if the allowlist is incomplete), place the service behind a VPN or internal segment rather than exposing it to untrusted networks, and apply rate-limiting or connection throttling at a load balancer/reverse proxy to blunt resource-exhaustion attempts (trade-off: aggressive limits can impact legitimate provisioning bursts). Monitor for repeated crashes/hangs and configure service auto-restart/high-availability to reduce outage duration as an interim measure.
