Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
Vulnerability in the Oracle WebCenter Content product of Oracle Fusion Middleware (component: Web Content Management). Supported versions that are affected are 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.0.0. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle WebCenter Content. While the vulnerability is in Oracle WebCenter Content, attacks may significantly impact additional products (scope change). Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in takeover of Oracle WebCenter Content. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 10.0 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H).
AnalysisAI
Full takeover of Oracle WebCenter Content (Fusion Middleware 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.0.0) is achievable by an unauthenticated remote attacker over HTTP, requiring no user interaction. The scope-changing flaw (CVSS 3.1 base 10.0) lets attackers compromise the Web Content Management component and pivot to impact adjacent Oracle products. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the maximum severity and trivial exploitability make this a top-priority patch from the July 2026 Oracle Critical Patch Update.
Technical ContextAI
Oracle WebCenter Content is an enterprise content management (ECM) platform within Oracle Fusion Middleware, used to store, manage, and deliver digital assets and web content, typically deployed on WebLogic Server. The vulnerable component is Web Content Management, exposed over HTTP. Oracle did not assign a CWE (listed as N/A) and, per its standard CPU disclosure practice, withholds root-cause detail; however, the AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N vector combined with a full-takeover impact and scope change is characteristic of authentication-bypass or unauthenticated remote-code-execution/injection classes common to WebCenter/WebLogic (e.g. deserialization or SSRF/path-based flaws). The scope change (S:C) indicates the vulnerable component can affect resources beyond its own security authority, consistent with a WebLogic-hosted service reaching underlying OS or other Fusion Middleware components.
RemediationAI
Apply the fixes from the Oracle July 2026 Critical Patch Update immediately; the vendor advisory at https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpujul2026.html is the source for the exact patch bundle for versions 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.0.0 (Patch available per vendor advisory - no standalone fixed build number was provided in the input, so obtain the specific patch ID from the CPU matrix). Because the flaw is unauthenticated and network-reachable over HTTP, until patching is complete restrict network exposure by placing WebCenter Content behind a VPN or IP allow-list, blocking direct internet access to the content server HTTP/HTTPS ports, and inspecting or filtering requests to the Web Content Management endpoints at a WAF or reverse proxy - accepting that these controls may disrupt legitimate external content delivery and remote author access. Given the scope change, also review and harden the trust boundary between WebCenter Content and any co-hosted Fusion Middleware/WebLogic components to limit lateral impact, and audit logs for anomalous unauthenticated HTTP activity.
