Description
Vulnerability in the PeopleSoft Enterprise PeopleTools product of Oracle PeopleSoft (component: Fluid Core). Supported versions that are affected are 8.61-8.63. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise PeopleSoft Enterprise PeopleTools. Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than the attacker and while the vulnerability is in PeopleSoft Enterprise PeopleTools, attacks may significantly impact additional products (scope change). Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized update, insert or delete access to some of PeopleSoft Enterprise PeopleTools accessible data as well as unauthorized read access to a subset of PeopleSoft Enterprise PeopleTools accessible data. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 5.4 (Confidentiality and Integrity impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N).

AI Analysis

Impact

The flaw resides in the Fluid Core component of Oracle PeopleSoft Enterprise PeopleTools versions 8.61 through 8.63. A low‑privileged attacker who gains network access to the HTTP interface can exploit the vulnerability, but the attacker needs a victim who is not the attacker to interact with the application. Successful exploitation allows the attacker to perform unauthorized insert, update, or delete operations and to read restricted data, thereby compromising data integrity and confidentiality. The CVSS 3.1 vector indicates that network access, low attack complexity, low privilege, and required user interaction are sufficient to trigger the flaw. The moderate CVSS base score of 5.4 reflects these constraints, yet the potential for unauthorized database changes is significant.

Affected Systems

Oracle Systems Manager is not affected. The affected product is Oracle PeopleSoft Enterprise PeopleTools, specifically the Fluid Core component in built‑in versions 8.61, 8.62 and 8.63. No other versions or optional packages are listed as impacted.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 5.4 and the lack of an EPSS rating suggest moderate risk, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Exploitation requires human interaction, so purely automated attacks are unlikely. Nonetheless, an attacker could leverage social engineering to convince a user to perform an action that activates the flaw, after which the attacker can modify or read data without elevated privileges. The scope of the impact is limited to the authenticated web interface but could extend to other applications that rely on the same data store due to the scope change indicated by the vector.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Apply the Oracle patch or upgrade PeopleSoft Enterprise PeopleTools to a non‑affected version
  • Restrict HTTP access to the PeopleSoft application by firewalling or VPN when possible to limit low‑privilege exposure
  • Enable detailed auditing of insert, update, delete and read operations and set up alerts for anomalous activity
  • Enforce strict role‑based access controls and verify that low‑privileged users lack permissions for critical database actions
