| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires network access to Oracle Hyperion Financial Management version 11.2.25.0.000 via SQL, and the CVSS vector (PR:L) formally asserts that at minimum a low-privileged account is needed. However, the 'Authentication Bypass' tag from EUVD intelligence raises the possibility that valid credentials may not be required - this inconsistency is unresolved in the available data and must be clarified with Oracle's full advisory. No special non-default configuration, specific operating mode, or feature flag is described as a prerequisite; the Security component appears to be a core part of the product. What limits exploitation: network exposure of the HFM application (environments restricting HFM to internal or VPN-only networks reduce risk materially), and the requirement for at least some form of access to the application network path. No user interaction is required and attack complexity is low, meaning no race conditions or additional environmental dependencies are present. |
| Impact | The vendor-assigned CVSS 3.1 score of 8.1 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N) reflects network reachability, low complexity, and only low-privilege prerequisites - a combination that meaningfully lowers the bar for exploitation. However, the EUVD 'Authentication Bypass' tag introduces a notable inconsistency: if authentication can be circumvented entirely, the PR:L rating may understate the true attack surface, potentially making this unauthenticated. This discrepancy should be verified against the full Oracle advisory. No EPSS score was supplied in the input data, so probabilistic exploitation likelihood cannot be quantified. No CISA KEV listing exists and no public exploit code has been identified, suggesting exploitation remains theoretical rather than confirmed active. Real-world risk is elevated by the sensitivity of financial data processed by HFM and the fact that full confidentiality and integrity impact is described - however, organizations that restrict HFM to internal or VPN-segmented networks significantly reduce their exposure. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker with a low-privileged HFM account (or potentially no credentials if the authentication bypass is pre-auth) connects to the Oracle Hyperion Financial Management application over the network and submits a crafted SQL payload targeting the Security component. The malicious input bypasses or subverts the access control layer, granting the attacker unrestricted read access to all financial consolidation data and write or delete capability over critical records. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, but the low attack complexity (AC:L) suggests a motivated attacker could develop a working exploit without significant reverse-engineering effort. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Aug 19, 2026
SQL-layer exploitation in Oracle Hyperion Financial Management 11.2.25.0.000 allows a low-privileged network attacker to fully compromise data confidentiality and integrity across all accessible financial data. The flaw resides in the Security component, and successful exploitation permits unauthorized read, creation, deletion, and modification of critical data - a particularly severe outcome for an EPM platform handling sensitive financial consolidation records. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis, but the low attack complexity and network-accessible vector make this a high-priority patch target for any Oracle EPM deployment.
RemediationAI
Apply Oracle's Critical Security Patch Update (CSPU) for August 2026 by consulting the advisory at https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cspuaug2026.html; the exact patched build identifier is not stated in the available input data and must be obtained directly from Oracle's advisory or My Oracle Support. As a compensating control pending patch application, restrict network access to the HFM application and its SQL endpoints to only trusted internal network segments or VPN-authenticated users, which reduces the attacker pool despite not addressing the root flaw. Additionally, enforce least-privilege principles on HFM accounts - minimizing the number of users with any level of authenticated access limits the number of potential attackers who can reach the vulnerable component. Monitor HFM SQL traffic and application logs for anomalous query patterns or unexpected data access. Note that network segmentation is a partial mitigation only; if the Authentication Bypass tag reflects a true pre-auth attack path, even unauthenticated network access may be sufficient to exploit the flaw.

Technical ContextAI · show details
Oracle Hyperion Financial Management (HFM) is an Oracle Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) product used for financial consolidation, reporting, and analysis in enterprise environments. The vulnerability is located in the Security component and is exploitable via SQL, indicating that the authentication or authorization subsystem processes SQL in a manner that can be manipulated by a low-privileged attacker. Although no CWE is formally assigned, the EUVD 'Authentication Bypass' tag strongly suggests an improper access control or SQL injection flaw within the security layer - either allowing privilege escalation through crafted SQL input or enabling bypassing of authorization gates. The affected version is specifically 11.2.25.0.000, identified as the single supported version impacted per Oracle's August 2026 Critical Security Patch Update.

DescriptionCVE.org
Vulnerability in the Oracle Hyperion Financial Management product of Oracle Hyperion (component: Security). The supported version that is affected is 11.2.25.0.000. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with network access via SQL to compromise Oracle Hyperion Financial Management. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized creation, deletion or modification access to critical data or all Oracle Hyperion Financial Management accessible data as well as unauthorized access to critical data or complete access to all Oracle Hyperion Financial Management accessible data. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 8.1 (Confidentiality and Integrity impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N).
Executive ViewAI
A SQL injection vulnerability in Oracle Hyperion Financial Management 11.2.25.0.000 allows low-privileged authenticated attackers to read, modify, and delete sensitive financial data without authorization. This directly compromises the integrity of consolidated financial reporting and creates significant audit and regulatory compliance risks for organizations using this critical EPM platform. With no vendor patch currently available, the organization faces sustained exposure to undetected data manipulation during critical financial close processes.
Interim mitigations pending patch availability: (1) implement strict network access controls limiting connections to administrative networks and documented trusted IP ranges; (2) enforce multifactor authentication for all system access and deploy privileged access management (PAM) for administrative accounts with session recording; (3) deploy database-level SQL monitoring with automated alerts on data modification attempts from non-administrative accounts; (4) establish daily financial data integrity validation comparing key general ledger balances and intercompany transactions to baseline values to identify unauthorized modifications.
