Description
Vulnerability in the Oracle Identity Manager product of Oracle Fusion Middleware (component: OIM Legacy UI). Supported versions that are affected are 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.1.0. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with network access via RMI to compromise Oracle Identity Manager. While the vulnerability is in Oracle Identity Manager, attacks may significantly impact additional products (scope change). Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in takeover of Oracle Identity Manager. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 9.9 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H).

AI Analysis

Impact

The vulnerability exists in the Legacy UI component of Oracle Identity Manager and allows an attacker with only low-level privileges and network access via Remote Method Invocation (RMI) to gain control of the system. Successful exploitation can lead to full takeover of Oracle Identity Manager, compromising all data managed by the platform. The weakness is fundamentally an improper access control flaw that permits unauthorized execution of code, as indicated by the high CVSS score and the RMI attack vector. The impact spans confidentiality, integrity, and availability; once executed, attackers can exfiltrate data, modify or delete identities, and disrupt services.

Affected Systems

Oracle Corporation’s Oracle Identity Manager product, specifically the 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.1.0 releases, is affected. The CPE entries confirm that these exact major revisions contain the vulnerability. No other vendors or product lines are listed as impacted by this specific flaw.

Risk and Exploitability

With a CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.9, the vulnerability is considered Critical. The EPSS score is not available, but the high base score suggests strong potential for exploitation. It is not currently listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, implying no publicly documented exploits at present. Attackers would need to contact the RMI service exposed by the OIM Legacy UI, and though the required privilege level is low, the presence of the flaw allows privilege escalation to complete system compromise. The scope change indicates that exploitation may affect other components of the Oracle Identity Manager stack beyond the UI, potentially broadening the threat surface.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Apply Oracle Identity Manager security patches or upgrade to a later release that includes the fix referenced in Oracle’s August 2026 security alert
  • If an immediate patch is not available, lock down the RMI port used by OIM (default 7080) to a narrow set of trusted hosts or apply a firewall rule to block external access
  • Remove or adjust low‑privileged accounts that have RMI access to reduce the attack surface
  • Enable auditing and monitoring of RMI traffic to detect anomalous activity and capture indicators of compromise
