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 | Per the CVSS vector (PR:L), the attacker needs a low-privilege authenticated account on the target and network HTTP access to the WebCenter Content: Imaging Core interface; no user interaction and no elevated privileges are required (AC:L, UI:N). Exploitation is limited to environments running the affected 12.2.1.4.0 or 14.1.2.0.0 Imaging deployments and to attackers who can reach the Imaging HTTP endpoint - so instances kept on a trusted internal network are substantially less exposed. Caveat: Oracle tagged this 'Authentication Bypass', which if accurate would remove the low-privilege prerequisite and permit unauthenticated exploitation; this conflicts with PR:L and must be confirmed against the Oracle CPU July 2026 advisory before assuming credentials are strictly required. |
| Impact | The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:L/A:N, 7.1 High) indicates an easily exploitable, network-reachable flaw needing only low privileges and no user interaction, with high confidentiality but only partial integrity and no availability impact - so the real risk is data exposure and limited tampering, not full compromise or DoS. No EPSS score and no SSVC decision data were provided in the input, so exploitation probability, automatability and technical-impact framing cannot be independently computed. It is not on CISA KEV and no POC is referenced, so it currently ranks below actively-exploited Oracle bugs; however, as an Oracle CPU item in enterprise middleware it remains a legitimate patch-cycle priority for organizations running Imaging. Note the conflict: the vendor tag 'Authentication Bypass' implies exploitation without valid credentials, whereas the CVSS PR:L explicitly requires low-privilege authentication - verify with Oracle which is accurate, as it materially changes exposure for internet-facing instances. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker holding a low-privilege application account (or, if Oracle's 'Authentication Bypass' tag holds, an unauthenticated attacker) sends crafted HTTP requests to a network-reachable WebCenter Content: Imaging Core endpoint and abuses missing authorization checks to read documents and metadata belonging to other users and to alter some records. Because AC:L and UI:N, the attack is repeatable and needs no victim interaction. No public exploit code is referenced at time of analysis. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Jul 22, 2026
Unauthorized data access and partial data manipulation in Oracle WebCenter Content: Imaging (Fusion Middleware component: Core) lets a low-privileged, network-based attacker read all Imaging-accessible data and modify some of it over HTTP. Versions 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.0.0 are affected, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.1 driven by high confidentiality and low integrity impact. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and the flaw is not on CISA KEV; the Oracle-supplied 'Authentication Bypass' tag is somewhat at odds with the CVSS PR:L requirement and should be verified against the vendor advisory.
RemediationAI
Apply the fixes delivered in the Oracle Critical Patch Update of July 2026 (https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpujul2026.html), which is the vendor advisory covering this CVE; the input does not specify an exact patched build number, so consult the CPU patch matrix for the correct patch for your 12.2.1.4.0 or 14.1.2.0.0 deployment - patch available per vendor advisory. Until patched, reduce exposure by restricting network reachability of the Imaging application: place it behind a VPN or internal-only network segment rather than exposing the HTTP endpoint to the internet, and tighten WebLogic/Imaging role and security-group assignments so low-privilege accounts cannot reach Imaging document stores (trade-off: may block legitimate remote or partner users). Increase authorization logging and monitor for anomalous cross-user document access as a detective control, and review/rotate Imaging user privileges given the low-privilege attack precondition.

Technical ContextAI · show details
WebCenter Content: Imaging is the imaging and document-capture module of Oracle Fusion Middleware's WebCenter Content platform, used to store, index and route scanned business documents (invoices, forms, records) and typically fronted by a Java/WebLogic HTTP application server. The affected 'Core' component handles the primary Imaging application logic exposed over HTTP. Oracle did not assign a CWE (CWE: N/A), but the CVSS profile (C:H/I:L, PR:L) combined with the vendor 'Authentication Bypass' tag is consistent with a broken access-control or authorization weakness (CWE-284/CWE-285 class), in which an authenticated low-privilege user reaches data and operations beyond their intended entitlement rather than a memory-safety or injection bug.

DescriptionCVE.org
Vulnerability in the WebCenter Content: Imaging product of Oracle Fusion Middleware (component: Core). Supported versions that are affected are 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.0.0. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise WebCenter Content: Imaging. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized access to critical data or complete access to all WebCenter Content: Imaging accessible data as well as unauthorized update, insert or delete access to some of WebCenter Content: Imaging accessible data. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 7.1 (Confidentiality and Integrity impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:L/A:N).
Executive ViewAI
Oracle WebCenter Content: Imaging (versions 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.0.0) contains a flaw enabling low-privileged network attackers to read all Imaging-accessible data and modify portions of it, creating direct exposure of sensitive content repositories. Organizations deploying these versions face data confidentiality and integrity risks; no vendor patch is currently available, requiring immediate compensating controls.
Restrict network access to WebCenter Imaging via firewall rules and strict IP whitelisting; reduce or eliminate low-privileged user privileges within WebCenter Imaging modules; enable detailed audit logging with real-time alerting on suspicious Imaging data access patterns; isolate affected systems to restricted network zones if operationally feasible; monitor Oracle security bulletins for patch availability.
