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 | The attacker must already possess a low-privileged logon to the infrastructure where Oracle Communications Pricing Design Center executes (CVSS PR:L, AV:L) - a local, authenticated prerequisite, not remote unauthenticated access, limiting exploitation to insiders or attackers who have already gained a foothold on the PDC host. No user interaction is required (UI:N) and complexity is low (AC:L), and Oracle characterizes it as 'easily exploitable' once that logon exists. Limiting factors: only the affected On-premise Deployment versions 15.0.0.0.0, 15.0.1.0.0, 15.1.0.0.0, and 15.2.0.0.0 are in scope, and the requirement for a pre-existing account on the host is the primary constraint on realistic risk. Note that the 'Authentication Bypass' tag appears to conflict with the PR:L vector and should be confirmed with the vendor. |
| Impact | The CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.3 (High) is driven by high confidentiality impact plus a scope change rather than by ease of remote reach. The vector is local (AV:L) with low complexity (AC:L), low privileges (PR:L, authenticated), and no user interaction, so the practical barrier is obtaining any low-privileged logon on the host where PDC runs - an insider or foothold-holding attacker rather than an anonymous internet one. No EPSS score, KEV entry, POC, or SSVC decision data was provided, so exploitation probability cannot be quantified from the input; the absence of KEV and public exploit code suggests this is not currently seeing widespread opportunistic exploitation. A key conflict to resolve: the 'Authentication Bypass' tag contradicts the PR:L in the vector - verify with Oracle whether any pre-authentication path exists, as that would materially raise urgency. Overall this is a meaningful insider and lateral-movement data-exposure risk in telecom billing environments, but not a mass-exploitation, internet-facing emergency based on available data. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker who holds a low-privileged account on the server running Oracle Communications PDC - for example a disgruntled insider or an actor who gained an initial foothold - logs on locally and abuses the flaw to read all PDC-accessible pricing and customer billing data and alter some records. Because of the scope change, the same action can spill over to impact adjacent Oracle Communications products in the deployment. No public exploit code is identified at time of analysis, so this would rely on private tradecraft. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Jul 21, 2026
Privilege-boundary compromise in Oracle Communications Pricing Design Center 15.0.0.0.0 through 15.2.0.0.0 (On-premise Deployment) lets a low-privileged attacker who already has a logon to the host infrastructure read all data accessible to the product and modify a subset of it, with a scope change that can significantly affect additional products. Oracle rates it CVSS 3.1 7.3 (AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:L/A:N) and describes it as easily exploitable. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV.
RemediationAI
Patch available per vendor advisory: apply the fixes delivered in the Oracle Critical Patch Update of July 2026 (https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpujul2026.html); Oracle does not enumerate a single tagged patched version in the provided data, so consult the CPU patch matrix for the exact patch level corresponding to your 15.0.0.0.0-15.2.0.0.0 installation and apply it in your next maintenance window. Because exploitation requires a low-privileged logon to the infrastructure hosting PDC, effective compensating controls until patching are to tightly restrict and audit local/OS and application accounts on PDC hosts, remove unnecessary interactive logons, enforce least privilege, and network-segment PDC servers away from general user access - the trade-off is added operational friction for administrators and integration jobs that legitimately log on. Given the scope change, also review and constrain the trust relationships between PDC and the adjacent Oracle Communications products it can reach so a PDC compromise cannot pivot laterally.

Technical ContextAI · show details
Pricing Design Center (PDC) is the pricing and rating design application within Oracle's Communications BSS/billing stack (part of the Billing and Revenue Management ecosystem), used by telecom operators to model products, charges, and discounts. The affected component is the On-premise Deployment. Oracle assigned no CWE (CWE: N/A), and the intelligence tag 'Authentication Bypass' is the only structural hint at root-cause class; however, the CVSS vector requires PR:L (an existing low-privileged account on the infrastructure), which is more consistent with a privilege/authorization or trust-boundary weakness than a pure pre-authentication bypass. The scope change (S:C) indicates the vulnerable component can affect resources beyond its own security authority, meaning exploitation reaches other products or accounts in the deployment. The single CPE, cpe:2.3:a:oracle_corporation:oracle_communications_pricing_design_center:*, confirms PDC as the sole affected product family.

DescriptionCVE.org
Vulnerability in the Oracle Communications Pricing Design Center product of Oracle Communications (component: On-premise Deployment). Supported versions that are affected are 15.0.0.0.0, 15.0.1.0.0, 15.1.0.0.0 and 15.2.0.0.0. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with logon to the infrastructure where Oracle Communications Pricing Design Center executes to compromise Oracle Communications Pricing Design Center. While the vulnerability is in Oracle Communications Pricing Design Center, attacks may significantly impact additional products (scope change). Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized access to critical data or complete access to all Oracle Communications Pricing Design Center accessible data as well as unauthorized update, insert or delete access to some of Oracle Communications Pricing Design Center accessible data. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 7.3 (Confidentiality and Integrity impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:L/A:N).
Executive ViewAI
Oracle Communications Pricing Design Center versions 15.0-15.2 (on-premises) contains a privilege-boundary flaw enabling authenticated host users to read all sensitive data and modify critical information, with scope impact affecting connected systems. Organizations running these versions require immediate access restriction to prevent data theft and unauthorized system modification.
Enforce strict host-access controls via least-privilege logon policies and multi-factor authentication where platform-supported; implement network isolation to restrict lateral access from compromised user accounts; establish real-time alerting for privilege escalation and data-access anomalies; conduct quarterly access reviews; expedite upgrade planning to patched versions as primary risk remediation.
