A vulnerability in the Common Core component of Oracle Life Sciences Empirica Signal allows an attacker with low privilege to perform unauthorized creation, deletion or modification of critical data, as well as read access to a subset of data. The flaw results in a confidentiality impact that is low and an integrity impact that is high. Because the vulnerability can result in a change of scope, the damage may extend beyond the affected application to other Oracle Life Sciences products.

Oracle Life Sciences Empirica Signal versions 9.2.1, 9.2.2 and 9.2.3 are affected. The vulnerability has been identified in the Oracle Life Science Applications suite and is specifically tied to the Common Core component within these releases.

The CVSS score of 8.5 indicates a high severity level. The attack vector is inferred to be remote over HTTP, and the requirement of low privilege suggests that any network host with HTTP access to the system could potentially exploit the issue without additional authentication. Because the EPSS score is not available, the likelihood of exploitation cannot be quantified, and the vulnerability is not currently listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog. The high integrity impact and potential scope change warrant serious concern, especially in environments where unrestricted network traffic can reach the application.
