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 outbound communications. An attacker could exploit this flaw to gain unauthorized access to sensitive business data or modify existing records. Successful exploitation requires a legitimate user to perform a specific action, such as clicking a malicious link, and could potentially impact other integrated Oracle products.
Technical details
This vulnerability affects the User Interface subcomponent of Oracle Advanced Outbound Telephony within the Oracle E-Business Suite. It is an easily exploitable flaw that allows an unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise the system. The attack 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 Advanced Outbound Telephony component to other parts of the E-Business Suite. Exploitation can result in unauthorized read access to all accessible data and unauthorized update, insert, or delete access to a subset of that data. The vulnerability is addressed in the Oracle Critical Patch Update for January 2017.
