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 | Exploitation requires network HTTP access to an Oracle E-Business Suite instance running the Project Contracts module (Internal Operations component) at a version between 12.2.3 and 12.2.15, plus a low-privileged authenticated EBS account (CVSS PR:L). No user interaction and no elevated privileges are needed and attack complexity is low. Limiting factors: the attacker must already possess or obtain valid low-privileged EBS credentials and must be able to reach the EBS application tier over the network, so instances that are not internet-exposed and that tightly restrict who holds Project Contracts responsibilities present a materially smaller attack surface. The intelligence-feed 'Authentication Bypass' tag is inconsistent with PR:L and should be confirmed with Oracle before assuming pre-authentication exploitation. |
| Impact | The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N) describes network-reachable, low-complexity exploitation requiring only low privileges and no user interaction, yielding high confidentiality and integrity impact but no availability impact - Oracle explicitly calls it 'easily exploitable.' No EPSS score, KEV entry, POC, or SSVC decision data was provided, so exploitation-probability signals are entirely absent; realistic risk therefore rests on the low barrier to exploitation (any authenticated EBS user with network access) rather than on confirmed in-the-wild activity. The PR:L requirement combined with the fact that internet-exposed EBS instances are frequent attacker targets makes this a credible priority for EBS operators, but with no exploit evidence it remains a high-CVSS issue whose real-world exploitation is not yet demonstrated. Note the explicit conflict between the 'Authentication Bypass' tag and PR:L - verify with Oracle whether any authentication is genuinely required before treating it as unauthenticated. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker holding any low-privileged Oracle E-Business Suite account (or having compromised such credentials) sends crafted HTTP requests to the Project Contracts Internal Operations functionality over the network. Because the flaw permits access beyond the user's intended authorization, the attacker reads sensitive contract data and creates, alters, or deletes critical Project Contracts records. No public exploit code has been identified, so exploitation would currently require the attacker to develop their own request against the vulnerable endpoint. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Jul 22, 2026
Data compromise in Oracle Project Contracts (Oracle E-Business Suite, Internal Operations component) versions 12.2.3 through 12.2.15 allows a low-privileged attacker with HTTP network access to read, create, delete, or modify all data accessible to the module. Rated CVSS 3.1 8.1 (C:H/I:H, no availability impact), it is described by Oracle as easily exploitable and requires only authenticated network access. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV.
RemediationAI
Apply the fixes delivered in the Oracle Critical Patch Update of July 2026 (https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpujul2026.html); Oracle ships EBS security fixes as cumulative CPU patches per version rather than a single named release, so identify and apply the specific Project Contracts / EBS 12.2 patch listed in that CPU for your installed release (Patch status: patch available per vendor advisory - no independently confirmed standalone fix version). As compensating controls until patched, restrict network reachability of the EBS web tier so the Project Contracts / OA Framework endpoints are not internet-exposed (place behind VPN or IP allow-listing), tighten application responsibilities and menus so only users who genuinely need Project Contracts hold access (shrinking the pool of low-privileged accounts that satisfy the PR:L precondition), and increase monitoring of EBS access logs for anomalous Project Contracts data operations. Trade-offs: restricting responsibilities may disrupt legitimate contract-management workflows and network restrictions may affect remote or partner access, so validate each control against business requirements.

Technical ContextAI · show details
Oracle Project Contracts is a module within the Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) ERP platform, running on the EBS web/application tier (Oracle Application Server / WebLogic front-ending a database) and reached over HTTP. The affected component is 'Internal Operations.' Oracle did not assign a CWE (listed as N/A), but the impact profile - full read plus create/delete/modify of module-accessible data by a low-privileged user - is consistent with a broken access control or authorization flaw (missing function- or object-level authorization) that lets an authenticated user act beyond their intended privilege scope. The 'Authentication Bypass' tag in the intelligence feed conflicts with the CVSS PR:L metric (which indicates some authentication is required); absent an explicit Oracle statement, treat this as an authorization/privilege-escalation issue rather than a true pre-auth bypass.

DescriptionCVE.org
Vulnerability in the Oracle Project Contracts product of Oracle E-Business Suite (component: Internal Operations). Supported versions that are affected are 12.2.3-12.2.15. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle Project Contracts. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized creation, deletion or modification access to critical data or all Oracle Project Contracts accessible data as well as unauthorized access to critical data or complete access to all Oracle Project Contracts accessible data. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 8.1 (Confidentiality and Integrity impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N).
Executive ViewAI
Oracle Project Contracts (E-Business Suite versions 12.2.3-12.2.15) contains a vulnerability allowing low-privileged authenticated users to access and modify all project and contract data across the enterprise, bypassing normal access controls. Organizations that rely on this module for contract governance, project delivery, and financial reporting face substantial risk if any employee, contractor, or compromised account with module access is exploited; even minimal credentials can leverage this vulnerability to read, delete, or alter all project and contract records.
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis; no public exploit identified at time of analysis. Restrict network access to Oracle Project Contracts module via firewall and network segmentation; enforce multi-factor authentication and privileged access management for all module users; implement comprehensive audit logging and real-time alerting for data access and modification events; conduct weekly access reviews; monitor for anomalous data access patterns.
