Technical details

A vulnerability exists in the Outside In Filters subcomponent of Oracle Outside In Technology (versions 8.5.2 and 8.5.3). The flaw allows an unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise the component, provided the hosting application passes network-received data directly to the Outside In SDK. Successful exploitation can result in unauthorized read access to all accessible data, unauthorized modification (update, insert, or delete) of some data, and a partial denial of service. The vulnerability is classified as easily exploitable with a low attack complexity. Oracle addressed this issue in the January 2017 Critical Patch Update.
