Impact

This vulnerability in Oracle Public Sector Human Resources permits a low‑privileged attacker with network access via HTTP to create, delete, or modify critical data, or to gain unauthorized read access to all data the application normally serves. The flaw originates in the Regression Testing component and can lead to significant confidentiality and integrity compromise, without affecting availability.

Affected Systems

The flaw impacts Oracle Public Sector Human Resources versions 12.2.3 through 12.2.15. The affected product is part of Oracle E‑Business Suite.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS 3.1 base score of 6.8 reflects moderate severity with high impacts to confidentiality and integrity. No EPSS score is available, and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog. Attackers would need only network connectivity to the application’s HTTP interface and low privilege credentials; no additional authentication escalation is required. Given the difficulty noted by Oracle, exploitation is plausible but may require specific context.
