CVE-2016-0457: Unspecified vulnerability in the Application Mgmt Pack for E-Business Suite component in Oracle E-Business...

Unspecified vulnerability in the Application Mgmt Pack for E-Business Suite component in Oracle E-Business Suite 12.1 and 12.2 allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality via vectors related to REST Framework, a different vulnerability than CVE-2016-0456. NOTE: the previous information is from the January 2016 CPU. Oracle has not commented on third-party claims that this issue is an XML External Entity (XXE) vulnerability, which allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files, cause a denial of service, conduct server-side request forgery (SSRF) attacks, or conduct SMB Relay attacks via a crafted DTD in an XML request to OA_HTML/lcmServiceController.jsp.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2016-0457 affects Oracle E-Business Suite Application Management Pack in versions 12.1 and 12.2. Oracle described a remotely reachable confidentiality issue in the REST Framework. Third-party reporting claims the flaw may be an XXE issue, but Oracle did not confirm that characterization in the cited record. Exposure is most likely in Oracle E-Business Suite 12.1 or 12.2 environments using the Application Management Pack or related REST Framework endpoints. Risk is higher if EBS management paths are reachable from untrusted networks. Treat this as a patch-verification item for Oracle E-Business Suite owners. Business urgency depends on whether affected EBS management components are exposed to untrusted users, but EBS typically supports sensitive business workflows and should not remain unverified. Mitigation focus: Review Oracle January 2016 CPU guidance for this CVE.; Apply applicable Oracle E-Business Suite security patches for 12.1 or 12.2.; Restrict untrusted network access to EBS management and OA_HTML endpoints..
