Description
Vulnerability in the Oracle Solaris product of Oracle Systems (component: Filesystems). The supported version that is affected is 11.4. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with logon to the infrastructure where Oracle Solaris executes to compromise Oracle Solaris. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized creation, deletion or modification access to critical data or all Oracle Solaris accessible data and unauthorized ability to cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash (complete DOS) of Oracle Solaris. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 7.1 (Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H).

AI Analysis

Impact

The Filesystems component of Oracle Solaris 11.4 contains a flaw that permits a low‑privileged local user to create, delete, or alter critical data, thereby compromising system integrity. Additionally, successful exploitation can cause the operating system to hang or crash repeatedly, leading to a denial‑of‑service condition. The vulnerability carries a CVSS 3.1 score of 7.1 with an Impact vector of Integrity and Availability, and requires no user interaction.

Affected Systems

Oracle Solaris 11.4 is the only version explicitly listed as affected. Deployments of this release, unless patched by Oracle, are vulnerable, and the issue is confined to the Solaris environment on Oracle platforms.

Risk and Exploitability

The moderate‑to‑high CVSS score indicates a serious potential impact. The EPSS score of less than 1% suggests that, as of the latest data, the likelihood of exploitation is low, and the vulnerability is not catalogued as a known exploited vulnerability by CISA. However, because the flaw can be triggered by a local attacker with low privileges, any user who has logged onto the system can initiate the integrity and availability effects identified in the description.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Apply the Oracle Solaris 11.4 patch that addresses CVE‑2026‑60659 as published in the vendor’s security alert
  • Limit local file system permissions to the minimum required for each account, and restrict access to critical directories for low‑privileged users
  • Enable filesystem integrity monitoring and configure alerts for unauthorized modifications or repeated crashes, then review event logs regularly
