Exploitation Conditions

Three concurrent prerequisites are required for exploitation. First, the attacker must have an active local logon session on the specific infrastructure host where Oracle Agile PLM MCAD Connector 3.6 is installed and running - the local attack vector (AV:L) makes remote network-based exploitation impossible. Second, the attacker must hold at least low-level system privileges (PR:L); anonymous or unauthenticated users cannot exploit this vulnerability. Third, a separate user - not the attacker - must take an action that triggers the vulnerable code path in the CAX Client component (UI:R), meaning the attacker cannot complete exploitation independently. High attack complexity (AC:H) further requires that race conditions, environmental timing, or specific system states align at the moment of exploitation. What limits exploitation: the local-only vector eliminates any internet-facing threat actor; the human-interaction dependency prevents automation; and the high complexity makes reliable triggering difficult to engineer on demand. The partial impact scope (C:L/I:L/A:L) also means this vulnerability cannot achieve full host compromise on its own.

Impact

The overall risk is low and unlikely to be a near-term operational priority for most organizations. The CVSS 3.1 score of 4.2 is backed by a vector that requires four simultaneous preconditions: local host access, low-privilege authentication, high attack complexity, and human interaction from a separate user - a combination that substantially narrows the realistic attacker population. No EPSS score was included in the provided intelligence data, and the vulnerability is absent from the CISA KEV catalog, confirming no known active exploitation. No proof-of-concept code has been identified. The high attack complexity (AC:H) means that even a mid-sized municipal IT team in leszno deploying this PLM connector on-premises would reasonably deprioritize this finding relative to network-exploitable or unauthenticated vulnerabilities in their environment. SSVC signals - no exploitation activity, not automatable due to human-interaction requirement, and limited technical impact - align with a 'Track' disposition rather than immediate remediation urgency. The partial impacts (C:L/I:L/A:L) confirm this cannot lead to full system compromise in a single exploitation step.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

A low-privileged user with an established local session on the Agile PLM MCAD Connector 3.6 host waits for or socially engineers a second user to perform an action through the CAX Client component, then exploits the high-complexity condition - such as a timing window or specific environmental state - to intercept, modify, or partially disrupt PLM data handled by that component. No public proof-of-concept code exists, and the mandatory human-interaction requirement means fully automated or scripted exploitation is not viable with this vulnerability alone.

AnalysisAIv1 – Aug 19, 2026

Oracle Agile PLM MCAD Connector version 3.6 exposes a local, privilege-dependent attack path through its CAX Client component, enabling a low-privileged authenticated local attacker to partially compromise data confidentiality, integrity, and availability within the PLM environment. Exploitation is constrained by a mandatory human-interaction requirement and high attack complexity, making opportunistic or remote exploitation infeasible. No public exploit code has been identified and this vulnerability does not appear in the CISA KEV catalog; the vendor-assigned CVSS 3.1 score of 4.2 reflects the limited blast radius.

RemediationAI

Apply Oracle's August 2026 Critical Security Patch Update, referenced at https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cspuaug2026.html. Oracle does not disclose exact patched build numbers within CVE advisories; consult the CPU detail tables directly to identify the specific Agile PLM MCAD Connector 3.6 patch artifact. As an interim compensating control, restrict local logon access to the host running Agile PLM MCAD Connector to only operationally necessary accounts, directly reducing the pool of potential low-privileged attackers - note this does not eliminate risk if shared workstation access is unavoidable. Monitor host-level session activity and CAX Client process file and data access for anomalies. No independently confirmed patched version number is available beyond the Oracle CPU advisory reference.

Technical ContextAI · show details

Oracle Agile PLM MCAD Connector is an integration component within Oracle's Supply Chain product family that bridges Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) workflows with Mechanical Computer-Aided Design (MCAD) authoring tools. The vulnerable sub-component is the CAX Client, responsible for handling data exchange between MCAD desktop tools and the Agile PLM backend platform. The affected release is version 3.6. No CWE classification was assigned in the available intelligence, so the precise root-cause weakness class - whether improper privilege management, insecure local IPC handling, race condition, or insecure temporary file usage - is unconfirmed from available data. The local attack vector (AV:L) confirms the flaw is only reachable from within the host's operating environment, and the unchanged scope (S:U) indicates impact is confined to the Agile PLM MCAD Connector process itself without privilege escalation to other system components.

DescriptionCVE.org

Vulnerability in the Oracle Agile PLM MCAD Connector product of Oracle Supply Chain (component: CAX Client). The supported version that is affected is 3.6. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with logon to the infrastructure where Oracle Agile PLM MCAD Connector executes to compromise Oracle Agile PLM MCAD Connector. Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than the attacker. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized update, insert or delete access to some of Oracle Agile PLM MCAD Connector accessible data as well as unauthorized read access to a subset of Oracle Agile PLM MCAD Connector accessible data and unauthorized ability to cause a partial denial of service (partial DOS) of Oracle Agile PLM MCAD Connector. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 4.2 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L).
