Executive brief
A vulnerability exists in the user interface of Oracle's Advanced Outbound Telephony, a component of the E-Business Suite used for managing high-volume customer communications. An attacker could exploit this to gain unauthorized access to sensitive business data or modify records, potentially impacting other connected business systems. Successful exploitation requires a legitimate user to interact with a malicious link or page while logged into the system.
Technical details
This vulnerability affects the User Interface subcomponent of Oracle Advanced Outbound Telephony within Oracle E-Business Suite. It is classified as an easily exploitable flaw that can be triggered by an unauthenticated attacker over the network via HTTP. The exploit requires human interaction from a person other than the attacker (UI:R) and has a 'Changed' scope (S:C), meaning the impact can extend beyond the vulnerable component to other parts of the E-Business Suite. Successful exploitation can result in unauthorized read access to all accessible data and unauthorized update, insert, or delete access to a subset of data. The vulnerability was addressed in the Oracle Critical Patch Update for January 2017.
