MITRE ATT&CK
1 technique across 1 tactic: Defense Evasion The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires a valid Oracle E-Business Suite user account with at least low-level privileges - unauthenticated access is not sufficient. The CVSS vector (PR:L) confirms authentication is mandatory, but no elevated or administrative role is needed. The attack is conducted over HTTP and requires network access to the EBS application tier; if the EBS instance is internet-facing, this significantly increases exposure. Affected versions are strictly 12.2.3 through 12.2.15 - organizations on earlier or later versions (if any exist outside this range) are not affected. No special non-default configuration is described as a prerequisite; the vulnerability appears present in standard deployments of the affected versions running the General Ledger module. |
| Impact | The CVSS 3.1 score of 7.6 (High) reflects a meaningful real-world risk: network reachability, low complexity, and only a low-privilege account required represent a low exploitation bar. The high integrity impact (I:H) is particularly significant in a financial ledger context, where unauthorized modification of GL data can constitute fraud, audit failure, or regulatory breach. The confidentiality impact is rated Low (C:L), suggesting read access is limited rather than full data exposure. Availability impact is also Low (A:L), indicating partial rather than catastrophic DoS. No EPSS data was provided, no KEV listing exists, and no public POC has been identified - these factors reduce immediate urgency relative to the raw CVSS score. However, the low exploitation complexity means that any attacker with a valid EBS credential could attempt exploitation with minimal skill. Organizations in regulated industries (finance, healthcare) should treat this as a priority due to the integrity-first impact profile. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker with a valid but low-privileged Oracle EBS user account - for example, a read-only GL analyst or a compromised service account - sends a crafted HTTP request to the General Ledger Internal Operations endpoint. Exploiting the access-control flaw, the attacker is able to create, modify, or delete financial journal entries or ledger records beyond their authorized scope, potentially falsifying financial data or disrupting reporting. No public exploit code has been identified, but the low attack complexity suggests that an attacker familiar with Oracle EBS HTTP APIs could construct a working exploit from the CVSS vector and component description alone. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Aug 19, 2026
Unauthorized data manipulation in Oracle General Ledger (E-Business Suite versions 12.2.3-12.2.15) allows a low-privileged, network-authenticated attacker to create, delete, or modify critical financial records via HTTP, with secondary read and partial availability impacts. The vulnerability resides in the Internal Operations component and requires only a valid low-privilege account - no elevated rights or user interaction. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis, but the low attack complexity and high integrity impact make this a significant risk for any organization running Oracle EBS financials.
RemediationAI
Apply the Oracle Critical Security Patch Update (CPU) for August 2026, available at https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cspuaug2026.html. Oracle's CPU process delivers patches for all affected versions (12.2.3-12.2.15); the exact patched version number was not independently specified in the source data beyond the CPU reference - consult Oracle My Oracle Support for patch IDs applicable to your installed version. As a compensating control pending patching, restrict HTTP access to the General Ledger Internal Operations component to known internal IP ranges using network-layer controls (firewall rules or WAF policies), reducing exposure to authenticated but unauthorized users. Additionally, audit current EBS user roles and revoke any unnecessarily broad GL permissions, since exploitation requires a low-privilege account - minimizing account proliferation limits the attacker pool. Note that network restriction alone does not eliminate risk if the attacker already has internal network access.

Technical ContextAI · show details
Oracle General Ledger is the core financial accounting module within Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS), a widely deployed enterprise ERP platform. The affected component is 'Internal Operations,' which handles backend GL processing accessible over HTTP. The CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N) indicates the flaw is reachable from the network without elevated privileges and with low attack complexity, pointing to an authorization or access-control deficiency within the component - consistent with improper authorization (CWE-285) or broken access control (CWE-284), though Oracle has not disclosed a specific CWE. Affected versions span 12.2.3 through 12.2.15, a broad range covering many years of EBS deployments.

DescriptionCVE.org
Vulnerability in the Oracle General Ledger 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 General Ledger. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized creation, deletion or modification access to critical data or all Oracle General Ledger accessible data as well as unauthorized read access to a subset of Oracle General Ledger accessible data and unauthorized ability to cause a partial denial of service (partial DOS) of Oracle General Ledger. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 7.6 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:H/A:L).
Executive ViewAI
Oracle General Ledger (E-Business Suite versions 12.2.3-12.2.15) contains a vulnerability allowing low-privileged users to create, delete, or modify critical financial records without elevated access rights. With no vendor patch currently available, this poses a direct threat to financial data integrity, audit trail reliability, and regulatory compliance for any organization running these versions.
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Interim mitigations: restrict low-privilege account GL module access via application role assignments; implement enhanced transaction-level logging and monitoring of all GL create, modify, and delete operations with daily reconciliation; enforce strict segregation of duties within GL access provisioning; disable or restrict unnecessary low-privilege GL user accounts; require manual review and approval of GL transactions flagged as unusual; implement network-level access controls limiting GL HTTP entry points to authorized systems only.
