Exploitation Conditions

Per the CVSS vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N, no special conditions are required beyond network-level HTTP access to the Oracle Hyperion PCM Deployment component - exploitation is unauthenticated and requires no user interaction or elevated privileges. The vulnerability is version-specific to 11.2.25.0.000; organizations running other versions are not confirmed affected. Exploitation is constrained by the typical enterprise deployment model of Hyperion PCM, which is usually isolated to internal networks or protected by VPN, meaning external internet-facing exposure is uncommon but not impossible. Internal users, compromised internal hosts, or attackers who have breached the network perimeter face no further technical barriers to exploitation.

Impact

The vendor-assigned CVSS 3.1 score of 8.6 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:N) accurately reflects a high-severity, low-friction confidentiality attack. All exploitability metrics are at their worst: network-reachable, low complexity, no credentials, no interaction. The Scope:Changed designation elevates practical severity beyond what the base score conveys, as financial data from related Hyperion products may also be exposed. However, several factors moderate real-world risk: this vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, no public exploit code has been identified, and no EPSS data was provided to assess exploitation probability. Oracle Hyperion PCM is enterprise software typically deployed within protected internal networks or behind VPN, which reduces - but does not eliminate - exposure to external attackers. Internal threat actors or attackers who have already achieved network adjacency remain a credible threat. Overall, this is a genuine high-priority issue for organizations running the affected version, particularly given the financial data sensitivity, but mass internet-scale exploitation is not expected given the product's deployment profile.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An internal attacker or an external attacker who has gained network access sends a crafted unauthenticated HTTP request directly to the Oracle Hyperion PCM Deployment component endpoint, bypassing authentication controls and receiving a full dump of the application's financial profitability data. Because the vulnerability triggers a scope change, the attacker may leverage the access or tokens obtained to read data from co-deployed Hyperion products such as Financial Management or Planning that share infrastructure. No public exploit code is currently known, but the low-complexity, no-authentication-required nature of the attack makes independent exploit development straightforward.

AnalysisAIv1 – Aug 19, 2026

Unauthenticated remote exploitation of Oracle Hyperion Profitability and Cost Management 11.2.25.0.000 allows network attackers to gain complete read access to all application-managed financial data via HTTP, with no credentials or user interaction required. The vulnerability resides in the Deployment component and carries a CVSS scope change, meaning successful exploitation may expose data from additional interconnected Oracle Hyperion products sharing the same infrastructure. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been confirmed, but the CVSS:3.1 AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N profile makes this trivially repeatable once an attacker identifies the vulnerable endpoint.

RemediationAI

Apply Oracle's August 2026 Critical Security Patch Update (CSPU), details available at https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cspuaug2026.html. An exact patched build number beyond the CSPU release reference is not independently confirmed from the available data - consult Oracle My Support for the specific patched artifact. As compensating controls while the patch is being scheduled, restrict HTTP access to the Hyperion PCM Deployment component using network ACLs or perimeter firewall rules to permit only trusted internal IP ranges; this does not remediate the authentication bypass but limits the attack surface given the AV:N vector. Additionally, enforce VPN or jump-host requirements for all Hyperion administrative interfaces and review HTTP access logs for anomalous unauthenticated requests to Deployment endpoints. Note that firewall-based controls do not protect against internal attackers or compromised internal hosts.

Technical ContextAI · show details

Oracle Hyperion Profitability and Cost Management is an enterprise financial analytics platform used for cost allocation, profitability modeling, and management reporting. Version 11.2.25.0.000 is confirmed affected per Oracle's August 2026 Critical Security Patch Update. The vulnerability is located in the Deployment component, which handles application lifecycle and configuration services accessible over HTTP. The 'Authentication Bypass' tag (sourced from EUVD-2026-61676) indicates the root cause involves failure to enforce authentication on one or more Deployment-layer HTTP endpoints - behavior consistent with CWE-306 (Missing Authentication for Critical Function) or CWE-287 (Improper Authentication), though no CWE was formally assigned. The CVSS Scope:Changed metric confirms that exploitation can compromise resources beyond the directly vulnerable Hyperion PCM boundary - likely the Oracle Hyperion Shared Services layer or other co-deployed Hyperion products (e.g., Financial Management, Planning) that share authentication and data infrastructure.

DescriptionCVE.org

Vulnerability in the Oracle Hyperion Profitability and Cost Management product of Oracle Hyperion (component: Deployment). The supported version that is affected is 11.2.25.0.000. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle Hyperion Profitability and Cost Management. While the vulnerability is in Oracle Hyperion Profitability and Cost Management, attacks may significantly impact additional products (scope change). Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized access to critical data or complete access to all Oracle Hyperion Profitability and Cost Management accessible data. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 8.6 (Confidentiality impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:N).

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

Oracle Hyperion Profitability and Cost Management version 11.2.25.0.000 contains an unauthenticated remote vulnerability (CVSS 8.6) that allows attackers to read all financial data without credentials or user interaction. This exposure affects any organization running the affected version and creates immediate risk of financial data theft, with potential lateral movement to other connected Oracle Hyperion systems. No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis.

Business Impact: Severe
Compensating Controls

Pending vendor patch availability: (1) restrict network access to the Deployment component via firewall/WAF with client-certificate or IP whitelisting requirement; (2) place the application behind an authentication proxy or reverse proxy requiring valid credentials; (3) disable the vulnerable Deployment component if not operationally required; (4) implement real-time alerting on anomalous financial data access patterns; (5) segment Hyperion Profitability and Cost Management from other interconnected Oracle Hyperion products to limit scope of lateral movement.
