Technical details

A vulnerability in the OUD Core component of Oracle Unified Directory (version 14.1.2.1.0) allows for a scope-changing compromise via the LDAP protocol. The flaw is easily exploitable by a low-privileged attacker with network access, requiring no user interaction. Successful exploitation grants the attacker full read, write, and delete permissions over all directory data, potentially impacting integrated downstream products. Additionally, the attacker can trigger a partial denial of service (DoS). The vulnerability is addressed in the Oracle Critical Patch Update for July 2026.
