Impact
The vulnerability enables a low-privileged attacker with network access over HTTP to send crafted requests that cause the Oracle WebCenter Content server to hang or crash, leading to a complete denial of service. It is a CWE-200 weakness, indicating an information exposure flaw that in this context allows an attacker to trigger server crashes. The vulnerability does not provide confidentiality or integrity compromise, but it can disrupt business operations by taking the application offline.
Affected Systems
Oracle Corporation’s WebCenter Content product is affected, specifically versions 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.0.0. No other products are listed as impacted.
Risk and Exploitability
The CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H) assigns a score of 6.5, indicating moderate severity with significant impact on availability. The EPSS score is less than 1%, indicating a very low exploitation probability. The vulnerability is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog. Exploitation requires only network connectivity to the HTTP endpoint of the WebCenter Content server and can be performed by an attacker with no elevated privileges, making it relatively easy to execute within a network that can reach the target.
