Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires network reachability to the Oracle E-Business Suite application/HTTP tier hosting the Cost Management module and a valid low-privileged EBS user credential (PR:L); no user interaction, no admin role, and no scope change are required, and the targeted versions are EBS Cost Management 12.2.3 through 12.2.15. Exploitation is limited by the need for a working EBS login: deployments that do not expose EBS to the internet, that enforce strong authentication (MFA/SSO at the front door), and that restrict Cost Management responsibilities to a small set of finance users materially reduce the attacker population, while internet-exposed self-service or supplier-portal deployments where any registered user can reach the Cost Planning OA Framework endpoints are at highest realistic risk.

Impact

This is a genuine priority for any organization running EBS 12.2: CVSS 3.1 base 8.8 with AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N and full C/I/A impact means a single low-privileged EBS account - which many enterprises issue broadly to employees, contractors, and partners - can take over Cost Management. EPSS and CISA KEV are not provided in the input, so probabilistic exploitation likelihood and confirmed in-the-wild use cannot be asserted; however, Oracle EBS CPU vulnerabilities historically attract reverse-engineering once patches ship, and Oracle itself rates this 'easily exploitable.' The main mitigating factor is the PR:L requirement: a fully external unauthenticated attacker cannot directly exploit this unless EBS self-registration or stolen/guessable credentials are in play. No conflicting signals were identified in the supplied data, but the absence of CWE and a technical write-up means defenders must trust Oracle's qualitative 'takeover' wording without an independent root-cause analysis.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker who has obtained or been issued any low-privileged Oracle E-Business Suite account - for example a self-service employee, supplier portal user, or a credential harvested via phishing - authenticates to the EBS web tier and sends crafted HTTP requests to the Cost Planning component, abusing the undisclosed flaw to escalate within Cost Management and read, modify, or destroy cost data and configurations. No user interaction or additional privileges are required and attack complexity is low, but no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis.

AnalysisAIv1 – Jun 16, 2026

Account takeover in Oracle Cost Management (E-Business Suite, versions 12.2.3 through 12.2.15) allows a low-privileged remote attacker to fully compromise the Cost Planning component over HTTP. The flaw yields high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact with no user interaction required, and is addressed in Oracle's June 2026 Critical Patch Update. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the low-complexity, network-accessible nature warrants priority patching by EBS operators.

RemediationAI

Apply the fixes shipped in Oracle's Critical Patch Update of June 2026 (https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cspujun2026.html) for Oracle E-Business Suite 12.2.3-12.2.15; Oracle delivers EBS fixes as cumulative patch sets through My Oracle Support, so install the CPU-aligned patch for your exact 12.2.x level rather than waiting for a point release. Until the CPU can be deployed, reduce exposure by restricting network reachability of the EBS Cost Management URLs (typically /OA_HTML/ pages bound to the OA Framework function for Cost Planning) to trusted internal users through the EBS URL firewall / allowlist and the reverse proxy or WAF in front of the application tier, and audit and tighten EBS responsibilities so that broadly-issued user accounts do not carry Cost Management responsibilities - accepting that this will break legitimate Cost Planning workflows for users whose access you remove. Rotate credentials and review FND_LOGINS / sign-on audit logs for any anomalous access to Cost Management functions before patching, since a low-privileged credential is the only prerequisite for exploitation.

Technical ContextAI · show details

Oracle Cost Management is a module of Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) that handles cost planning, accounting, and rollups for manufacturing and supply chain workflows. The affected Cost Planning component is exposed via the EBS HTTP/Oracle Application Framework tier, which authenticates EBS users and routes requests to backend PL/SQL and Java business logic. Because CWE is not assigned and Oracle's advisory text is intentionally sparse, the underlying weakness class is undisclosed, but the CVSS profile (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N, S:U, C:H/I:H/A:H) is characteristic of authenticated-user injection or authorization-bypass flaws - common patterns in EBS modules where a legitimate self-service account can reach privileged business functions or inject content/queries that escalate within the same module.

DescriptionCVE.org

Vulnerability in the Oracle Cost Management product of Oracle E-Business Suite (component: Cost Planning). Supported versions that are affected are 12.2.3-12.2.15. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle Cost Management. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in takeover of Oracle Cost Management. 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

Why It Matters

Oracle Cost Management in E-Business Suite (versions 12.2.3-12.2.15) contains a high-severity account takeover vulnerability allowing any authenticated user with low-privilege access to fully compromise the Cost Planning component without user interaction. Organizations operating affected EBS versions face immediate risk of unauthorized financial data access, manipulation, and system unavailability without urgent patching.

Business Impact: High
Compensating Controls

Apply vendor patch (Oracle June 2026 Critical Patch Update). Interim mitigations if patching is delayed: restrict Cost Management access to trusted IP ranges only; require multi-factor authentication for all Cost Planning logins; implement real-time monitoring and alerting on cost data access and account modifications; disable remote access protocols if not business-critical.
