1 technique across 1 tactic: Initial Access The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | The specific prerequisite is network access to the Oracle Coherence HTTP/2 interface of the Core component on affected versions 14.1.1.0.0, 14.1.2.0.0, or 15.1.1.0.0; per CVSS PR:N/UI:N there is no authentication and no user-interaction requirement. This is effectively unauthenticated remote exploitation against reachable Coherence instances - the primary limiting factor is network exposure of the HTTP/2 listener: environments where that endpoint is confined to an isolated cluster VLAN or firewalled from untrusted networks materially reduce realistic exploitability, whereas any instance exposed to a broader or internet-facing network is directly at risk. |
| Impact | The signals align strongly toward high real-world risk: the CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) shows network attack vector, low complexity, no privileges, and no user interaction, meaning the raw score of 9.8 is not inflated by unusual preconditions. Oracle explicitly describes it as 'easily exploitable' resulting in 'takeover,' reinforcing the CVSS reading. Countervailing context: it is NOT listed in CISA KEV and no POC is referenced, so this is not confirmed active exploitation - the risk is high potential rather than observed mass exploitation. EPSS and SSVC data were not provided in the input, so automatability and exploitation-status decision inputs cannot be computed here. Net: treat as a priority-one patch for any internet- or partner-network-exposed Coherence instance, while recognizing that at time of analysis exploitation is inferred from CVSS/vendor language, not from a confirmed in-the-wild campaign. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker who can reach a Coherence instance's HTTP/2 endpoint sends a crafted request that exploits the Core component flaw, requiring no credentials and no user interaction. Because impact is full C/I/A takeover, the attacker can read cached application data, tamper with grid state, and gain code-execution-level control of the Coherence process. No public POC is referenced in the available data, so this scenario is derived from the CVSS vector and Oracle's 'takeover' description rather than a demonstrated exploit. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Jul 21, 2026
Remote takeover of Oracle Coherence (Oracle Fusion Middleware, Core component) allows an unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTP/2 to fully compromise affected versions 14.1.1.0.0, 14.1.2.0.0, and 15.1.1.0.0. The flaw yields complete confidentiality, integrity, and availability loss (CVSS 3.1 base 9.8) and was disclosed by Oracle in the July 2026 Critical Patch Update. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the network-reachable, no-privilege, no-interaction profile makes it a top-priority patching target.
RemediationAI
Apply the Oracle July 2026 Critical Patch Update fixes for Oracle Coherence per https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpujul2026.html; Oracle delivers these as CPU patch bundles rather than a single upstream version tag, so identify and apply the correct patch for your installed 14.1.1.0.0, 14.1.2.0.0, or 15.1.1.0.0 release (patch available per vendor advisory; no standalone fixed version string is provided in the input). Until patched, restrict network reachability of the Coherence HTTP/2 listener: block or firewall the affected port from untrusted networks, place the service behind an authenticated reverse proxy or VPN, and limit access to known application-tier hosts only - the trade-off is that legitimate clients or clustered peers relying on that endpoint must be explicitly allow-listed or they will lose connectivity. Because the vector is HTTP/2, disabling or fronting the HTTP/2 endpoint where it is not required also reduces exposure, at the cost of any functionality that depends on it. Do not rely on authentication controls as a mitigation since exploitation requires no privileges.

Technical ContextAI · show details
Oracle Coherence is an in-memory distributed data grid used to cache and manage application state at scale, commonly deployed alongside Oracle WebLogic Server and other Fusion Middleware stacks in enterprise Java environments. The Core component is the foundational clustering and data-management layer, and the vulnerability is reachable over HTTP/2, indicating the exposure is in a network-facing listener/protocol handler rather than an internal cluster-only channel. Oracle assigned no CWE (CWE: N/A) and published no class-level root-cause detail; the combination of full C/I/A impact with unauthenticated network reach is consistent with a deserialization or request-parsing flaw of the type historically seen in Coherence/WebLogic, but the exact weakness class is not confirmed in the available data.

DescriptionCVE.org
Vulnerability in the Oracle Coherence product of Oracle Fusion Middleware (component: Core). Supported versions that are affected are 14.1.1.0.0, 14.1.2.0.0 and 15.1.1.0.0. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTP/2 to compromise Oracle Coherence. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in takeover of Oracle Coherence. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 9.8 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H).
Executive ViewAI
Oracle Coherence, a core Oracle Fusion Middleware component, allows unauthenticated attackers to achieve complete remote takeover of affected systems via network access alone, with no user interaction required. Organizations running versions 14.1.1, 14.1.2, or 15.1.1 face immediate risk of total data compromise and operational disruption. Any Coherence deployment reachable over the network-including connections from corporate networks, cloud environments, or the internet-is at critical risk.
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Implement network-level mitigations: restrict HTTP/2 access to Coherence instances using firewall rules and network segmentation; place systems behind WAF with HTTP/2 inspection enabled; limit connections to known authorized IPs only; disable HTTP/2 protocol support if business requirements permit; increase monitoring for anomalous HTTP/2 traffic patterns and failed connection attempts to Coherence instances.
