Vulnerability in the Oracle WebCenter Content product of Oracle Fusion Middleware (component: Content Server). The supported version that is affected is 14.1.2.0.0. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle WebCenter Content. Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than the attacker and 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 access to critical data or complete access to all Oracle WebCenter Content accessible data. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 8.7 (Confidentiality and Integrity impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:N).
Affected Software
Remediation
Recommended actions to resolve this vulnerability, in priority order.
- Configuration
Disable or restrict direct HTTP access to Oracle WebCenter Content: bind HTTP service to internal interfaces only, disable external HTTP bindings where possible, or require access via VPN or a management network.
Oracle WebCenter Content (Content Server) HTTP access = restricted or disabled for untrusted networks - Compensating control
Restrict network-level access to Oracle WebCenter Content HTTP endpoints at the perimeter firewall or network ACLs to trusted IP ranges only; block HTTP access from untrusted networks.
- Compensating control
Deploy a Web Application Firewall (WAF) or HTTP inspection/proxy in front of Oracle WebCenter Content to inspect and block malicious HTTP requests.
- Operational
Monitor and review WebCenter Content logs and activity for signs of unauthorized creation, deletion, or modification. If compromise is suspected, isolate affected systems, follow incident response procedures, and rotate any credentials that may have been exposed.
Event History
Frequently Asked Questions
Who is exposed to this vulnerability?
Deployments of Oracle WebCenter Content Content Server running the supported affected version 14.1.2.0.0 are exposed if a low-privileged attacker can reach the service over HTTP and can induce another person to interact with the attack.
What access does an attacker need to exploit it?
The attacker needs network access via HTTP and low-level privileges in Oracle WebCenter Content. Exploitation also requires human interaction by someone other than the attacker.
What could a successful attack allow?
A successful attack can provide unauthorized access to critical data or all data accessible through Oracle WebCenter Content, and can allow creation, deletion, or modification of that data. The scope change indicates the attack may also significantly affect additional products.
