MITRE ATT&CK
2 techniques across 2 tactics: Collection, Discovery The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | The attacker must possess a valid, authenticated low-privileged account on Oracle Hyperion Financial Management 11.2.25.0.000 and must have HTTP network access to the HFM application server. No elevated privileges are required beyond a basic user credential. No special non-default configuration, enabled feature flag, or specific deployment mode is indicated as a prerequisite - exploitation targets the Security component under standard HFM deployment. Limiting factors: requires an authenticated session (PR:L), so fully unauthenticated external attackers cannot exploit this without first obtaining any valid HFM credential; scope is unchanged (S:U), meaning compromise does not pivot to adjacent systems; only confidentiality is impacted, with no write or denial-of-service capability. |
| Impact | The CVSS 3.1 score of 6.5 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N) reflects a medium-severity but operationally significant confidentiality threat. The network vector, low complexity, and absence of user interaction make this straightforward to execute against an exposed instance - any attacker with a valid low-privilege account can exploit it without additional configuration tricks. However, the PR:L requirement is a meaningful limiting factor: the attacker must already hold an authenticated session, which reduces opportunistic attack surface compared to unauthenticated flaws. Impact is confined to confidentiality (C:H) with zero integrity or availability effect, meaning the flaw enables data theft or reconnaissance, not sabotage. No EPSS score is available in the provided data, and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV, suggesting no confirmed in-the-wild exploitation at time of analysis. Given that HFM houses sensitive financial consolidation data often subject to SOX and similar compliance obligations, the business impact of unauthorized reads is potentially severe even without a high CVSS. The 'Authentication Bypass' tag introduces a mild tension with PR:L - if authentication is bypassed, PR:N would be expected; the most coherent interpretation is that this is an authorization bypass (role escalation within the app) rather than a full authentication bypass, consistent with PR:L. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | A low-privileged internal user - such as a read-only financial analyst with a valid HFM account - sends a crafted HTTP request to the HFM Security component endpoint, exploiting the authorization bypass to query financial consolidation data outside their assigned scope. This could include subsidiary financials, pre-release earnings data, or other regulated financial records. No exploit code has been publicly released, but the low attack complexity means a moderately skilled attacker familiar with HFM's API surface could reproduce the bypass without specialized tooling. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Aug 19, 2026
Unauthorized access to sensitive financial data in Oracle Hyperion Financial Management 11.2.25.0.000 is achievable by any low-privileged, network-authenticated attacker over HTTP. The flaw resides in the Security component and, per the Oracle tag classification, represents an authorization bypass that permits a low-privilege account to read critical or complete HFM data assets well beyond their assigned permissions. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, though Oracle's Critical Security Update for August 2026 formally acknowledges and patches the issue.
RemediationAI
Apply Oracle's Critical Security Update for August 2026, available at https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cspuaug2026.html, which addresses CVE-2026-70975 in Oracle Hyperion Financial Management 11.2.25.0.000. The exact patched version number is not independently stated in the advisory references; Oracle customers should consult MOS (My Oracle Support) for the specific patch ID and verify the patch level post-application. As a compensating control while patching is scheduled, restrict network access to the HFM application tier to only authorized internal subnets or VPN-connected users, reducing the attacker's ability to reach the HTTP interface; note this does not eliminate the vulnerability if insider or shared-credential threats are in scope. Review HFM user account provisioning to ensure minimum necessary privileges are assigned, which limits the population of accounts that could be leveraged - though this does not prevent a low-privileged account from exploiting the flaw itself. Audit HFM access logs for anomalous data retrieval patterns as a detective control.

Technical ContextAI · show details
Oracle Hyperion Financial Management (HFM) is an enterprise EPM (Enterprise Performance Management) platform used for financial consolidation, reporting, and compliance, typically deployed in large-enterprise back-office environments communicating over HTTP/HTTPS. The affected component is labeled 'Security,' and the vendor-supplied tag 'Authentication Bypass' indicates the flaw is most accurately an authorization or access-control bypass within that security subsystem - a low-privileged user can circumvent role-based or object-level access controls to read data they are not entitled to see. The CWE is listed as N/A, but the behavior is consistent with CWE-863 (Incorrect Authorization) or CWE-285 (Improper Authorization). The sole confirmed affected version is 11.2.25.0.000, per ENISA EUVD-2026-61922 and NVD CPE data aligned to the Oracle August 2026 CPU advisory.
