Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
Vulnerability in the Oracle Coherence product of Oracle Fusion Middleware (component: Core). Supported versions that are affected are 12.2.1.4.0, 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 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).
AnalysisAI
Full product takeover of Oracle Coherence (Fusion Middleware, Core component) is achievable by remote unauthenticated attackers over HTTP, per Oracle's July 2026 Critical Patch Update. The flaw carries a CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.8 with high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact, and Oracle characterizes it as 'easily exploitable' against supported versions 12.2.1.4.0, 14.1.1.0.0, 14.1.2.0.0, and 15.1.1.0.0. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV, but the trivial exploitation profile and complete-compromise outcome make it a top-priority patch.
Technical ContextAI
Oracle Coherence is a distributed, in-memory data grid used within Oracle Fusion Middleware to provide clustered caching, session replication, and low-latency data services for enterprise Java (WebLogic/Fusion) applications. Coherence cluster and management endpoints commonly communicate over network protocols including HTTP, which is the stated attack surface here. The CWE is not provided by Oracle, so the precise root-cause class is unconfirmed; however, prior Coherence 'takeover' vulnerabilities have frequently involved unsafe deserialization of untrusted data reaching cluster/management endpoints, which is consistent with an unauthenticated network-to-code-execution outcome. The affected CPE is cpe:2.3:a:oracle_corporation:oracle_coherence, and the vulnerable component is identified as 'Core.'
RemediationAI
Apply the fixes from Oracle's July 2026 Critical Patch Update (https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpujul2026.html) for your specific release train (12.2.1.4.0, 14.1.1.0.0, 14.1.2.0.0, or 15.1.1.0.0); Oracle delivers Coherence fixes as CPU patch bundles rather than a single tagged version, so use the CPU's Coherence patch matrix to select the correct bundle - patch available per vendor advisory, exact fix build per the CPU matrix. Until patched, reduce exposure by restricting network access to Coherence HTTP/management and cluster ports so they are reachable only from trusted management segments (this can break external management tooling or cross-tier access that legitimately uses those endpoints), disabling or firewalling any internet- or broadly-exposed Coherence HTTP listener, and, where deserialization is the suspected vector, enforcing Coherence/WebLogic serialization allowlists (POF or JEP-290-style filters), which may reject legitimate custom serialized types and require testing. Prioritize any Coherence instances whose HTTP endpoints are reachable from untrusted networks.
