Impact

A vulnerability in the Multichannel Framework component of Oracle Peoplesoft Enterprise PeopleTools allows a high‑privileged attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise the application. Successful exploitation can lead to full takeover of the system, affecting confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The CVSS 3.1 base score of 6.6 reflects these impacts and indicates that authentication or privilege in the affected versions is inadequate.
