Description
Vulnerability in the Oracle WebCenter Content product of Oracle Fusion Middleware (component: Content Server). Supported versions that are affected are 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.0.0. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows high privileged attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle WebCenter Content. While the vulnerability is in Oracle WebCenter Content, attacks may significantly impact additional products (scope change). Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized creation, deletion or modification access to critical data or all Oracle WebCenter Content accessible data as well as unauthorized read access to a subset of Oracle WebCenter Content accessible data and unauthorized ability to cause a partial denial of service (partial DOS) of Oracle WebCenter Content. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 8.2 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:H/A:L).

AI Analysis

Impact

The vulnerability resides in the Oracle WebCenter Content Content Server and is an Access Control weakness (CWE-284). It allows an attacker with high‑privileged credentials and network connectivity via HTTP to create, delete, modify, and read data, as well as cause a partial denial of service. The impact extends to confidential, integral, and availability aspects of content data and may affect other Oracle products due to a scope change.

Affected Systems

Affected systems include Oracle WebCenter Content from Oracle Corporation as part of the Oracle Fusion Middleware suite. The impacted releases are 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.0.0, both of which provide the Content Server component that is vulnerable.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.2 indicates a high severity assessment. The EPSS score is < 1%, indicating a very low but nonzero probability of exploitation, and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV. The likely attack vector is network‑based HTTP access, and exploitation requires that the attacker already holds high‑level privileges. Once exploited, the attacker can perform unauthorized modifications and a partial denial of service, posing a significant risk to data integrity and availability.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Apply the latest Oracle patch or hotfix for WebCenter Content 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.0.0 as published in the Oracle CSPU Aug 2026 Security Alert.
  • Restrict HTTP access to the Content Server by implementing firewall rules and ensuring that only trusted users and IP addresses can reach the service.
  • Enforce strict role‑based access control in WebCenter Content and follow Oracle’s recommended security hardening guidelines.
  • Monitor system logs for anomalous data creation, modification, or deletion events that could indicate exploitation attempts.
