Technical details

A critical vulnerability exists in the Core component of Oracle WebLogic Server (versions 12.2.1.4.0, 14.1.1.0.0, 14.1.2.0.0, and 15.1.1.0.0). The flaw is easily exploitable by a low-privileged attacker with network access via the Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) protocol. The vulnerability is characterized by a 'scope change' (Status: Changed in CVSS), meaning a successful exploit can impact components beyond the WebLogic Server itself. Attackers can achieve complete takeover of the server, resulting in high impacts on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Users are advised to refer to the Oracle Critical Patch Update (CPU) for July 2026 for remediation steps.
