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 allows an unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise the application. 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 immediate component to other parts of the E-Business Suite. Successful exploitation can result in unauthorized high-impact confidentiality breaches and low-impact integrity violations, such as reading, updating, or deleting sensitive data. Oracle addressed this in the January 2017 Critical Patch Update.
