Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
Vulnerability in the Oracle Commerce Guided Search Platform Services product of Oracle Commerce (component: Forge). The supported version that is affected is 11.4.0. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTPS to compromise Oracle Commerce Guided Search Platform Services. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized creation, deletion or modification access to critical data or all Oracle Commerce Guided Search Platform Services accessible data as well as unauthorized access to critical data or complete access to all Oracle Commerce Guided Search Platform Services accessible data. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 9.1 (Confidentiality and Integrity impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N).
AnalysisAI
Unauthenticated data compromise in Oracle Commerce Guided Search Platform Services 11.4.0 (Forge component) allows remote attackers over HTTPS to read, create, modify, or delete all data accessible to the service without any credentials. Oracle rates this CVSS 9.1 with high confidentiality and integrity impact and characterizes it as 'easily exploitable,' and the intelligence tags flag an authentication-bypass class issue. No public exploit code has been identified and it is not listed in CISA KEV at time of analysis.
Technical ContextAI
Oracle Commerce Guided Search (formerly Endeca) is an enterprise faceted-search and product-discovery platform used in e-commerce storefronts; the affected 'Forge' component is part of the Endeca CAS/MDEX data-processing pipeline that ingests, transforms, and indexes catalog content for the Platform Services layer. The 'Authentication Bypass' tag combined with the CVSS PR:N metric indicates the flaw lets an attacker reach privileged Platform Services functionality without valid authentication, most likely through an exposed HTTPS management or data endpoint. No CWE was assigned by NVD, so the precise root-cause class (e.g., missing authentication on a critical function, CWE-306, or improper authentication, CWE-287) is inferred from the vendor tag rather than confirmed.
RemediationAI
Apply the fixes delivered in the Oracle Critical Patch Update of July 2026 (Patch available per vendor advisory at https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpujul2026.html); Oracle CPUs ship the corrective patches but the source data does not specify an exact fixed build number, so obtain the precise patch level for 11.4.0 from that advisory and apply it as the primary remediation. Until patched, restrict network reachability of the Guided Search Platform Services / Forge HTTPS endpoints to trusted management networks only via firewall or reverse-proxy ACLs, and ensure these services are never directly internet-exposed - the trade-off is that any legitimate remote administration or cross-datacenter indexing traffic must be explicitly allowlisted. Additionally place the service behind an authenticating reverse proxy or WAF to add an authentication layer in front of the vulnerable endpoint, accepting that this may require reconfiguring downstream integration clients.
