MITRE ATT&CK
2 techniques across 2 tactics: Collection, Discovery The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires the attacker to have direct access to the physical communication segment (local network, VLAN, or physical wire) attached to the hardware running PeopleSoft Enterprise CS Campus Community 9.2.38. This is not a remote internet-exploitable vulnerability - AV:A explicitly restricts the attack to adjacent-network scope. Attack complexity is rated High (AC:H), meaning the attacker must meet additional exploitation conditions beyond mere network proximity, such as timing requirements, specific protocol states, or traffic interception capability. No user interaction is required and no prior authentication is needed (PR:N/UI:N). Exploitation is limited by: (1) physical or layer-2 network proximity to the PeopleSoft host, (2) high complexity threshold that prevents simple or automated exploitation, and (3) the attack being scoped to a single product version (9.2.38). Campus networks with open wired access ports near server infrastructure increase realistic exposure. |
| Impact | Real-world risk is moderate-to-low for most organizations despite the high confidentiality impact. The CVSS 3.1 score of 5.9 reflects the adjacent-network attack vector (AV:A) and high attack complexity (AC:H), meaning an attacker cannot exploit this remotely from the internet - they must have physical or layer-2 proximity to the host running PeopleSoft. EPSS data was not provided in the source intelligence, so exploitation probability cannot be quantified. No CISA KEV listing and no publicly available exploit code further reduce immediate risk. The data impact is notable: successful exploitation yields complete read access to all data accessible by the application and limited write/modify capability. In a campus environment, this may include student records (FERPA-protected), financial aid data, and personal information, elevating the regulatory consequence. The combination of AV:A and AC:H is a meaningful barrier: an attacker needs physical proximity and must overcome high-complexity exploitation conditions, making opportunistic mass exploitation unlikely. Targeted insider-threat or physical-access scenarios remain the credible threat model. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker with physical access to the campus network - for example, a student or visitor who plugs into a wired network port in a lab or office near the PeopleSoft server infrastructure - positions themselves on the adjacent network segment. Leveraging the authentication bypass in the Security component, possibly via intercepted credentials or session tokens traversing the local network, the attacker gains read access to sensitive student records and limited write capability without authenticating. No public exploit code is known to exist, so this scenario currently requires significant attacker sophistication and local access. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Jul 22, 2026
Authentication bypass in Oracle PeopleSoft Enterprise CS Campus Community 9.2.38 (Security component) enables an unauthenticated attacker positioned on the adjacent physical network segment to access critical application data and manipulate select records. The exploit is rated difficult due to adjacent-network positioning requirements and high attack complexity, yielding a moderate CVSS 5.9 score despite the high confidentiality impact. No public exploit code or active exploitation (CISA KEV) has been identified at time of analysis, limiting immediate mass-exploitation risk.
RemediationAI
Apply the Oracle Critical Patch Update released July 2026, which addresses CVE-2026-61103 for PeopleSoft Enterprise CS Campus Community. The advisory is available at https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpujul2026.html - consult it for the specific patch bundle or updated version that supersedes 9.2.38. Because no exact post-patch version number is confirmed in the available intelligence, organizations should verify the precise updated build with Oracle support before deployment. As a compensating control while patching, restrict network-level access to the PeopleSoft application hosts by enforcing 802.1X port authentication or VLAN segmentation to prevent unauthorized devices from joining the adjacent network segment - this directly mitigates the AV:A attack vector. Additionally, review PeopleSoft Security component configuration and enable enhanced audit logging for authentication events to detect bypass attempts. These controls carry no functional side effects for legitimate campus users accessing PeopleSoft through standard client paths.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The affected component is the Security subsystem of PeopleSoft Enterprise CS Campus Community version 9.2.38, a higher-education student information and campus administration platform published by Oracle. The CVSS vector AV:A indicates the attacker must occupy the same physical or logical network segment as the PeopleSoft application host - not a remote internet-based attack. The tag 'Authentication Bypass' suggests the root cause lies in a flaw within the Security component's authentication or session-handling logic that can be exploited by an attacker able to intercept or inject into adjacent network communications, possibly through a man-in-the-middle or credential interception technique. No CWE identifier was provided in the advisory, so the precise root-cause class (e.g., CWE-287 Improper Authentication or CWE-294 Authentication Bypass by Capture-replay) cannot be confirmed from available data. The CPE-equivalent scope is PeopleSoft Enterprise CS Campus Community 9.2.38.
