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 trick a legitimate user into performing an action that allows the attacker to view or modify sensitive business data. This could lead to unauthorized access to customer information or the corruption of telephony records.
Technical details
This vulnerability affects the User Interface subcomponent of Oracle Advanced Outbound Telephony within the Oracle E-Business Suite. It is classified as easily exploitable and allows an unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise the system. The exploit requires human interaction from a person other than the attacker (UI:R) and utilizes a 'Changed Scope' (S:C), meaning the impact can extend beyond the telephony 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 that data. The vulnerability was addressed in the Oracle Critical Patch Update for January 2017.
