Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires network HTTP access to an Oracle E-Business Suite instance running the Project Portfolio Analysis product (Internal Operations component) at a version between 12.2.3 and 12.2.15, plus a valid low-privileged EBS account (CVSS PR:L - some authentication is required despite the vendor 'Authentication Bypass' tag). No user interaction is needed (UI:N) and attack complexity is low (AC:L). Limiting factors: the attacker must already hold or obtain a low-privileged EBS login, the target must have the Project Portfolio Analysis module deployed and reachable over HTTP, and only in-scope versions 12.2.3-12.2.15 are affected; instances restricted to internal networks or without this module deployed are not remotely exposed.

Impact

The CVSS 3.1 vector CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N yields 8.1 (High): network attack vector, low complexity, low privileges required, no user interaction, with high confidentiality and integrity impact and no availability impact. Oracle explicitly describes it as 'easily exploitable' by a low-privileged attacker, which is consistent with AC:L/PR:L. However, exploitation still requires a valid low-privileged EBS account (PR:L), so this is not an unauthenticated internet-wide risk despite the 'Authentication Bypass' tag - the two signals appear to conflict and should be verified against Oracle's advisory, since PR:L in the official vector means some authentication is required. No EPSS score, no SSVC decision, no POC, and no KEV entry were provided, so real-world exploitation probability cannot be quantified from the input. Net: a genuinely high-severity ERP data-exposure flaw that warrants prompt patching for internet-facing or large-user-base EBS deployments, but current evidence does not indicate active exploitation.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

A low-privileged user with a valid Oracle EBS account (for example an internal employee or a compromised low-tier login) sends crafted HTTP requests to the Project Portfolio Analysis Internal Operations component and, by abusing the missing authorization check, reads and modifies project and financial data they should not be able to touch. No user interaction or elevated privileges are needed and attack complexity is low, so a single authenticated session is sufficient; no public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis.

AnalysisAIv1 – Jul 22, 2026

Data compromise in Oracle Project Portfolio Analysis (a module of Oracle E-Business Suite, Internal Operations component) allows a low-privileged remote attacker over HTTP to read, create, delete, or modify all data accessible to the application. Affected releases span EBS 12.2.3 through 12.2.15, and the CVSS 3.1 base score is 8.1 (C:H/I:H). This is a July 2026 Oracle Critical Patch Update issue with no public exploit identified at time of analysis and no CISA KEV listing, though the 'Authentication Bypass' tag and low attack complexity make it an attractive target once patch details are reversed.

RemediationAI

Apply the fixes delivered in Oracle's July 2026 Critical Patch Update; the vendor advisory at https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpujul2026.html is the authoritative source for the specific EBS 12.2 patch numbers, and no exact fixed version string was included in the input data so administrators should map their release (12.2.3-12.2.15) to the CPU-listed patch. As compensating controls until patching, restrict network reachability of the Oracle Project Portfolio Analysis / Internal Operations pages so they are not exposed to the public internet, place the EBS web tier behind a VPN or reverse proxy with strict access lists, tighten EBS responsibility/role assignments to reduce the number of low-privileged accounts that can reach the affected component, and enable enhanced auditing on Project Portfolio Analysis data access - noting these controls reduce exposure but do not eliminate the flaw for legitimate low-privileged users. Because exploitation requires an authenticated low-privileged session, promptly reviewing and de-provisioning stale EBS accounts also lowers risk.

Technical ContextAI · show details

Oracle Project Portfolio Analysis is a project-management/analytics module within the Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) ERP platform, delivered through the EBS web tier over HTTP(S). The affected 'Internal Operations' component handles internal application operations exposed to authenticated EBS users. Oracle does not publish a CWE for CPU entries and CWE is listed as N/A here, but the vendor-supplied 'Authentication Bypass' tag combined with a horizontal/vertical data-access impact (unauthorized read and write to all module-accessible data) points to a broken access control / authorization flaw (CWE-284/CWE-863 class) rather than memory corruption. No CPE strings were supplied; affected products are identified from the EUVD version range (EBS 12.2.3 ≤ 12.2.15) only.

DescriptionCVE.org

Vulnerability in the Oracle Project Portfolio Analysis 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 Portfolio Analysis. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized creation, deletion or modification access to critical data or all Oracle Project Portfolio Analysis accessible data as well as unauthorized access to critical data or complete access to all Oracle Project Portfolio Analysis 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

Why It Matters

Oracle Project Portfolio Analysis in E-Business Suite versions 12.2.3-12.2.15 contains a high-severity vulnerability (CVE-2026-60986, CVSS 8.1) enabling low-privilege users to read, modify, or delete all application data via unauthenticated HTTP access. No public exploit identified at time of analysis. Organizations operating affected EBS versions face immediate risk of complete data compromise across financial, payroll, and project records.

Business Impact: High
Compensating Controls

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Implement: restrict Project Portfolio Analysis HTTP access via firewall and IP whitelisting to administrative networks only, enforce multi-factor authentication for all user accounts with module access, deploy Web Application Firewall rules to detect and alert on suspicious data retrieval patterns, disable Project Portfolio Analysis entirely if not operationally critical, and establish daily access log reviews for unauthorized access indicators.
