Analysis

AI-generated

Technical impact

A flaw in the ADF Faces component of Oracle Application Development Framework (ADF) enables a low‑privileged user who can log on to the underlying host to compromise the ADF instance. The vulnerability allows the attacker to take control of ADF, affecting confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The weakness is identified as CWE‑284 and is scored with a CVSS v3.1 Base Score of 7.8, indicating high severity.

Affected Systems

Oracle Corporation’s Oracle Application Development Framework (ADF) is affected. The flaw applies to the ADF Faces feature in the supported releases 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.0.0, which are components of Oracle Fusion Middleware. Systems running these specific versions are vulnerable unless the security update is applied.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 7.8 reflects a serious risk level. The EPSS score of less than 1% indicates that the likelihood of exploitation in the wild is low. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. However, it requires only low attacker privileges and local execution; any user who can log into the host can readily exploit the flaw to achieve a full takeover of the ADF instance.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Apply the Oracle CPU April 2026 security update for ADF 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.0.0 as published in Oracle’s security advisory.
  • Restrict local logon privileges on servers running Oracle ADF to only essential administrative accounts, following the principle of least privilege.
  • Disable or restrict access to unused ADF Faces components or services that are not required for operation to reduce the attack surface.
