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 unauthenticated attacker could exploit this flaw to gain unauthorized access to sensitive data or modify records, provided they can trick a legitimate user into performing a specific action. This could lead to a significant breach of customer information and impact other integrated business systems.
Technical details
This vulnerability affects the User Interface subcomponent of Oracle Advanced Outbound Telephony within the Oracle E-Business Suite. It is an unauthenticated, network-based attack vector via HTTP that requires human interaction (User Interaction: Required) from a person other than the attacker. The vulnerability has a 'Changed' scope (S:C), meaning an exploit can impact components beyond the immediate security scope of the affected product. 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 issue is addressed in the Oracle Critical Patch Update for January 2017.
