MITRE ATT&CK
1 technique across 1 tactic: Privilege Escalation The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | The only prerequisite stated by Oracle is network HTTP access to the Oracle Identity Manager Connector's interface (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N) - no authentication, no privileges, and no user interaction are required, so any attacker who can route an HTTP request to the connector can exploit it. Exploitation is limited to environments that have the PeopleSoft Applications connector deployed on OIM versions 12.2.1.4.0 or 14.1.2.1.0; the principal mitigating factor is network exposure, meaning connectors reachable only from an internal management segment are substantially harder to reach than internet- or broadly-LAN-exposed instances. |
| Impact | The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H, score 9.8) is internally consistent and describes an easily exploitable, remote, unauthenticated attack with full CIA impact - the maximum realistic base severity. Oracle explicitly labels it 'easily exploitable,' aligning with AC:L. Counterbalancing signals: no EPSS score was provided, it is absent from CISA KEV, and no public POC is referenced, so there is no evidence of active or widespread exploitation yet. The residual risk is driven by the low exploitation barrier and high impact rather than by observed in-the-wild activity; because OIM connectors sit at the heart of identity provisioning, a compromise has outsized blast radius (potential to manipulate account provisioning), so this should be treated as a genuine high priority and not a paper-tiger high-CVSS finding. Note the 'Information Disclosure' tag is narrower than the C:H/I:H/A:H vector - the vector indicates full takeover, so defenders should weight the vector over the tag. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker who can reach the connector's HTTP endpoint over the network sends a crafted request that requires no authentication and no user interaction, gaining full control of the Oracle Identity Manager Connector. From that foothold they could abuse the connector's provisioning role to read or manipulate identity data flowing between OIM and PeopleSoft. No public POC is referenced at time of analysis, but the CVSS AC:L rating indicates exploitation is straightforward once the endpoint is reachable. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Jul 22, 2026
Complete takeover of the Oracle Identity Manager Connector (PeopleSoft Applications component of Oracle Fusion Middleware) is possible for a remote, unauthenticated attacker over HTTP, with CVSS 9.8 reflecting full confidentiality, integrity, and availability loss. Affected releases are 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.1.0, and the fix ships in Oracle's July 2026 Critical Patch Update. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV, but the trivial exploitability and 'takeover' outcome make it a top-tier patch priority for any environment running this connector.
RemediationAI
Apply the fixes delivered in Oracle's July 2026 Critical Patch Update (patch available per vendor advisory at https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpujul2026.html); Oracle distributes these as cumulative CPU patches for the affected 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.1.0 branches rather than as an independently tagged release, so identify the exact connector bundle patch listed in the CPU matrix for your version and deploy it during your next emergency-change window. Until patched, because the attack is remote and unauthenticated over HTTP, restrict network reachability of the connector's HTTP interface to only the OIM server and trusted management hosts via firewall/ACLs or a reverse proxy allowlist, and place it behind a WAF to filter anomalous requests - the trade-off is that overly tight ACLs can break legitimate PeopleSoft reconciliation/provisioning traffic, so validate connector jobs after locking down. If the PeopleSoft connector is not actively used, disable or undeploy it to remove the exposure entirely.

Technical ContextAI · show details
Oracle Identity Manager (OIM) is the identity governance and provisioning engine within Oracle Fusion Middleware; connectors are integration modules that reconcile and provision accounts between OIM and downstream target systems, here the PeopleSoft Applications connector. The flaw resides in this connector's network-facing HTTP handling and results in complete compromise of the connector component. Oracle does not map a CWE (listed as N/A) and, per its long-standing Critical Patch Update convention, does not disclose the specific root-cause class; based on the 'unauthenticated network takeover' phrasing this is consistent with an authentication/authorization bypass or unsafe request handling in the connector's web-exposed interface, but the exact weakness is not published.

DescriptionCVE.org
Vulnerability in the Oracle Identity Manager Connector product of Oracle Fusion Middleware (component: PeopleSoft Applications). Supported versions that are affected are 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.1.0. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle Identity Manager Connector. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in takeover of Oracle Identity Manager Connector. 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 Identity Manager Connector in Fusion Middleware versions 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.1.0 is vulnerable to complete remote takeover by unauthenticated attackers over HTTP, exposing organizations running PeopleSoft applications to immediate data breach and system compromise. Any enterprise with this connector deployed must apply the critical patch immediately to prevent loss of control over identity management systems and associated business processes.
Apply vendor patch from Oracle July 2026 Critical Patch Update. Interim mitigation: restrict network access to the Oracle Identity Manager Connector to authorized administrative networks only.
