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 | Attacker must hold valid low-privileged credentials to the Oracle E-Business Suite instance and be able to reach the Universal Work Queue 'Work Provider Site Level Administration' HTTP endpoint on the EBS application tier; target must be running EBS 12.2.3 through 12.2.15 with the Universal Work Queue component deployed. No user interaction by another user is required (UI:N) and attack complexity is low (AC:L). Limiting factors that reduce realistic risk: the PR:L requirement means fully external unauthenticated attackers cannot directly exploit it without first obtaining or registering an EBS session, and EBS instances that are firewalled to internal networks or behind VPN/SSO substantially shrink the attacker population. Conversely, deployments exposing EBS self-service or iSupplier/iStore to the internet effectively make the low-privilege barrier trivial to clear. |
| Impact | All measurable signals point to high real-world priority. The CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H) is near-worst-case: network-reachable, low complexity, only a low-privileged session needed, no user interaction, and a scope change that can cascade into other EBS modules. Oracle itself classifies it as 'easily exploitable' and worth a 9.9. EPSS, KEV status, and SSVC inputs were not provided in the intelligence bundle, so probability of mass exploitation cannot be quantified - this is unknown rather than confirmed low. No POC is identified at time of analysis. The dominant risk driver is that EBS deployments typically hand out low-privilege application accounts widely (employees, contractors, partner portals), which collapses the PR:L barrier in practice; any organization exposing EBS beyond a tightly trusted user base should treat this as a top-tier patch. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker with any low-privileged Oracle E-Business Suite account - for example, an internal employee with a basic self-service responsibility, or a compromised partner-portal credential - sends a crafted HTTP request to the Work Provider Site Level Administration endpoint and abuses the flaw to take over Oracle Universal Work Queue. Because of the CVSS scope change, the attacker then leverages UWQ's trust relationships to read or modify data in other EBS modules (CRM, Service, Order Management), achieving a full confidentiality, integrity, and availability compromise across linked components. No public exploit is identified at time of analysis, but Oracle's 'easily exploitable' rating and the AC:L/PR:L vector make reliable weaponization plausible once details circulate. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Jun 16, 2026
Account takeover in Oracle Universal Work Queue (Oracle E-Business Suite 12.2.3 through 12.2.15) allows a low-privileged remote attacker to fully compromise the component via HTTP, with a scope change that can significantly impact other connected products. The CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.9 reflects high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact, and no public exploit is identified at time of analysis. Authenticated EBS users - including low-tier business users - should be treated as potential threat actors against this surface.
RemediationAI
Apply the patch available per vendor advisory in the Oracle Critical Patch Update - June 2026 (https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cspujun2026.html); the specific CPU patch number for Universal Work Queue 12.2.3-12.2.15 should be selected per the matrix in that advisory, as Oracle does not publish standalone fix versions for EBS components. Until the CPU is applied, compensating controls include restricting network reach to the EBS application tier so the Universal Work Queue servlets are only accessible from trusted internal networks or via VPN (side effect: breaks remote employee/partner access to UWQ-routed work), tightening EBS responsibility assignments so low-privileged users cannot reach Work Provider Site Level Administration functions (side effect: may disrupt legitimate task routing for affected roles), and enabling enhanced WAF/HTTP request logging on the EBS Oracle HTTP Server for UWQ URIs to detect anomalous parameter manipulation (side effect: increased log volume). Do not rely on these workarounds long-term - the scope-change nature of the flaw means a successful exploit can pivot beyond UWQ even if UWQ itself is rarely used.

Technical ContextAI · show details
Oracle Universal Work Queue (UWQ) is an Oracle E-Business Suite component that distributes and routes work items (tasks, service requests, sales leads, etc.) to back-office and CRM users. The vulnerable surface is the Work Provider Site Level Administration component, which manages how work-provider configurations are bound to operating units and sites. Per the CPE (cpe:2.3:a:oracle_corporation:oracle_universal_work_queue), the affected code ships as part of the EBS 12.2 application tier and is reachable over the standard EBS HTTP listener. No CWE was assigned by Oracle, but the combination of low-privilege HTTP exploitation, full CIA impact, and an explicit scope change is consistent with an authorization or trust-boundary flaw - most commonly improper access control or unsafe deserialization/parameter handling in an EBS servlet that lets a low-tier session act on or as a higher-privileged context.

DescriptionCVE.org
Vulnerability in the Oracle Universal Work Queue product of Oracle E-Business Suite (component: Work Provider Site Level Administration). 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 Universal Work Queue. While the vulnerability is in Oracle Universal Work Queue, attacks may significantly impact additional products (scope change). Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in takeover of Oracle Universal Work Queue. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 9.9 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H).
Executive ViewAI
Oracle Universal Work Queue (EBS versions 12.2.3-12.2.15) contains a critical account takeover vulnerability allowing authenticated attackers with low-privileged access to fully compromise the component and potentially escalate impact to other connected EBS modules. Organizations using these EBS versions face exposure of business-critical data in financials, supply chain, and HR systems. No vendor patch currently exists, requiring immediate interim containment.
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Interim mitigations: (1) Network segmentation-restrict Web Queue Gateway inbound traffic to authorized administrative subnets; (2) Enhanced logging on all account access, privilege changes, and cross-module job submissions from Universal Work Queue; (3) Implement step-up authentication (IP restrictions, time-window policies) for EBS accounts with downstream system access; (4) Isolate Universal Work Queue from other EBS modules at network and database levels where operationally feasible; (5) Daily audit of user account changes and transaction activity in connected financial/supply chain modules for indicators of unauthorized activity.
