## 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.
