Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires an authenticated Oracle E-Business Suite session at low privilege (CVSS PR:L) with network HTTP access to the Project Portfolio Analysis module (Internal Operations component) on an EBS 12.2.3-12.2.15 instance; no user interaction and no administrative rights are needed (UI:N, AC:L). The primary limiting factor is that the attacker must first possess valid low-privileged credentials or a foothold account on the EBS instance - it is not exploitable by a fully anonymous, unauthenticated attacker despite the 'Authentication Bypass' tag, which conflicts with the PR:L vector. Exposure is further limited to organizations running the affected EBS 12.2.x versions with the Project Portfolio Analysis module deployed and its HTTP endpoints reachable by the attacker.

Impact

Signals are mixed and should be weighed carefully. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:H/A:N, base 7.1) indicates a network-reachable, low-complexity attack requiring only low privileges and no user interaction, with the primary damage being data integrity (I:H) plus limited data disclosure (C:L) and no availability impact. Oracle labels it 'easily exploitable,' which aligns with the AC:L/PR:L metrics. However, no EPSS score was provided, there is no POC evidence, and it is not in CISA KEV, so real-world exploitation likelihood is presently unquantified and no active exploitation is confirmed. One conflict to verify: the intelligence Tags include 'Authentication Bypass,' yet the official CVSS vector specifies PR:L (an authenticated, low-privileged attacker) rather than PR:N - the vector, being Oracle's authoritative rating, should take precedence, and the 'Authentication Bypass' tag appears to be an inaccurate generic label. Net assessment: a genuine, patch-worthy integrity risk for internet- or intranet-exposed EBS instances where low-privileged accounts are common, but not an emergency mass-exploitation scenario on current evidence.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker who holds or obtains any low-privileged Oracle EBS application account sends crafted HTTP requests to the Project Portfolio Analysis functionality and, exploiting insufficient authorization checks, performs create, delete, or modify operations on critical project data they should not control while also reading a subset of otherwise-restricted data. No user interaction or elevated privileges are needed, and no public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis.

AnalysisAIv1 – Jul 22, 2026

Data tampering in Oracle Project Portfolio Analysis (a module of Oracle E-Business Suite, component Internal Operations), versions 12.2.3 through 12.2.15, lets a low-privileged attacker with network HTTP access create, delete, or modify critical application data and read a subset of accessible data. Oracle rates it CVSS 3.1 7.1 with high integrity impact, and describes it as easily exploitable. No public exploit 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; consult https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpujul2026.html for the exact patch set and version applicable to your EBS 12.2.3-12.2.15 deployment. Patch available per vendor advisory; an exact standalone fix version string was not included in the input data, so identify the specific CPU patch number from the advisory matrix for Project Portfolio Analysis. Because exploitation requires an authenticated low-privileged session, compensating controls until patching include tightening EBS user provisioning and removing unnecessary low-privilege accounts, restricting network access to the EBS web tier so that only trusted internal users can reach the Project Portfolio Analysis HTTP endpoints (for example via reverse-proxy allowlisting or VPN gating, which may inconvenience remote users), and enabling monitoring of unexpected create/delete/modify activity on Project Portfolio data - none of these fully remove the flaw and should be treated as interim measures only.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The affected software is Oracle E-Business Suite, Oracle's large integrated ERP/CRM application suite, specifically the Project Portfolio Analysis module within the Projects family, exposed over HTTP through the EBS web tier. Oracle assigned no CWE (CWE: N/A), so the precise root-cause class is not published; however, the CVSS profile (network vector, low complexity, requires an authenticated low-privileged EBS session, high integrity impact, low confidentiality impact) is consistent with a broken access-control or authorization flaw allowing an under-privileged user to reach data-modifying operations. The 'Internal Operations' component designation and the affected 12.2.x release line indicate this lies in the EBS 12.2 application code rather than the underlying database or middleware.

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 read access to a subset of Oracle Project Portfolio Analysis 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:L/I:H/A:N).

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

Oracle Project Portfolio Analysis (versions 12.2.3-12.2.15) contains a data tampering vulnerability enabling low-privileged network attackers to create, delete, or modify critical business data; no public exploit identified at time of analysis. Organizations running affected E-Business Suite versions face risks to data integrity and resource allocation accuracy.

Business Impact: High
Compensating Controls

Restrict network access via firewall rules limiting HTTP connections to authorized IP ranges; enforce role-based access controls to limit low-privileged user capabilities; enable comprehensive audit logging of all data create/update/delete operations; monitor transaction logs for unauthorized modifications; isolate affected systems from critical downstream business applications.
