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 low-privilege Oracle E-Business Suite account (PR:L) with network access to the EBS application tier via HTTP. The CVSS vector (AC:L, UI:N) confirms no special non-default configuration, user interaction, or race condition is needed - a standard authenticated session is sufficient. Limiting factors include: the attacker must hold at least one valid EBS credential (no unauthenticated path is indicated by PR:L), and access to the HTTP endpoint must be reachable from the attacker's position (internal network or VPN exposure increases risk versus internet-isolated deployments). Availability (A:N) is not impacted, so the attack leaves no service disruption trace. The specific bypass mechanism within the Internal Operations component is not detailed in available data - whether it is a parameter manipulation, missing function-level access check, or session token flaw is unconfirmed. |
| Impact | The CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.1 (High) is consistent with the vector metrics: network-reachable, low complexity, low privilege, no user interaction, high confidentiality impact, and limited integrity impact. The 'easily exploitable' language in the description reinforces AC:L. No EPSS data was provided, and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV, so exploitation probability cannot be quantified beyond the structural CVSS signals. The 'Authentication Bypass' tag elevates practical risk: the attacker only needs a valid low-privilege account, and the bypass grants access to data well above that privilege tier. Oracle EBS financial modules typically hold highly sensitive data (payroll, vendor payments, tax records), amplifying the business impact of C:H. No POC is confirmed, but the broad affected version range (12.2.3-12.2.15 spans roughly a decade of releases) means the attack surface across unpatched deployments is significant. No conflicting signals between CVSS and description were identified, though the absence of a CWE designation limits root-cause confidence. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker with a low-privilege Oracle E-Business Suite account - for example, a contractor, junior finance user, or compromised service account - sends crafted HTTP requests to the Internal Operations component of Oracle Financials for EMEA. The authorization bypass allows them to enumerate and extract sensitive EMEA financial records (vendor data, payment details, tax information) beyond their assigned role, and perform limited insert or update operations on accessible data. No public POC exists at time of analysis, but AC:L indicates exploitation would not require sophisticated tooling once the bypass technique is understood. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Aug 19, 2026
Unauthorized data access in Oracle Financials for EMEA (E-Business Suite versions 12.2.3-12.2.15) allows a low-privileged, network-accessible attacker to exfiltrate critical financial data and perform limited data manipulation via HTTP. The 'Authentication Bypass' tag from ENISA EUVD suggests the flaw in the Internal Operations component permits privilege escalation beyond what the authenticated identity should authorize - effectively letting a standard user reach data reserved for higher roles. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis, but the low attack complexity and broad version range across a financial ERP increase urgency for EMEA-facing Oracle deployments.
RemediationAI
Apply the Oracle Critical Security Patch Update (CSPU) for August 2026, available at https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cspuaug2026.html. The advisory is the authoritative source for patch versions and installation instructions; no specific fixed version number is independently confirmed beyond the advisory reference. If immediate patching is not feasible, compensating controls should focus on restricting network-level access to the Internal Operations component endpoints - for example, enforcing network segmentation so that only authorized internal hosts can reach the EBS application tier over HTTP, which limits exposure without disabling functionality. Additionally, reviewing and tightening Oracle EBS user privilege assignments to reduce the number of accounts that hold even low-level access to the Financials for EMEA module narrows the pool of potential exploiters. Note that network segmentation does not eliminate the risk if the attacker already has a foothold inside the network perimeter. Monitor Oracle My Oracle Support for patch confirmation and apply the CSPU as the primary remediation.

Technical ContextAI · show details
Oracle Financials for EMEA is a regional module of Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS), an on-premises enterprise resource planning platform widely used for financial operations in Europe, Middle East, and Africa. The affected component is 'Internal Operations', a backend service layer exposed over HTTP. The CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L) confirms the flaw is reachable over the network without special conditions. Although no CWE is assigned in the NVD data, the ENISA EUVD tag 'Authentication Bypass' points to an authorization control failure - likely improper enforcement of object-level or function-level access controls within the EBS security model. Affected versions span 12.2.3 through 12.2.15, a wide range suggesting the root cause is in a long-standing code path rather than a recent regression. No CPE strings were supplied, but the EUVD entry narrows scope to 'Oracle Financials for EMEA 12.2.3 ≤ 12.2.15'.

DescriptionCVE.org
Vulnerability in the Oracle Financials for EMEA 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 Financials for EMEA. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized access to critical data or complete access to all Oracle Financials for EMEA accessible data as well as unauthorized update, insert or delete access to some of Oracle Financials for EMEA 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:H/I:L/A:N).
Executive ViewAI
Oracle Financials for EMEA (E-Business Suite versions 12.2.3-12.2.15) contains an authentication bypass vulnerability in the Internal Operations component that enables low-privileged users to access and exfiltrate sensitive financial data via HTTP, as well as perform unauthorized data modifications. Organizations with affected deployments face direct risk of unauthorized financial records access with no vendor patch currently available. This vulnerability poses significant regulatory and operational risk for all EMEA-facing Oracle Financials operations.
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Interim mitigations: (1) Implement strict network segmentation isolating Oracle Financials infrastructure from standard corporate networks; (2) Apply least-privilege access principles and audit all user account permissions, removing elevated privileges from non-administrative accounts; (3) Deploy Web Application Firewall rules to monitor, log, and block anomalous HTTP requests to the Internal Operations component; (4) Configure real-time alerting and continuous monitoring of financial data access patterns to detect unauthorized activity; (5) Prioritize applying vendor patches or updates immediately upon release, or evaluate alternative ERP solutions if patch availability or upgrade feasibility creates unacceptable business risk.
