Unspecified vulnerability in the Oracle Application Testing Suite component in Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control 12.4.0.2 and 12.5.0.2 allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality via unknown vectors related to Load Testing for Web Apps, a different vulnerability than CVE-2016-0476 and CVE-2016-0477. NOTE: the previous information is from the January 2016 CPU. Oracle has not commented on third-party claims that this is a directory traversal vulnerability in the DownloadServlet servlet, which allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via directory traversal sequences in the scriptName parameter.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2016-0478 affects Oracle Application Testing Suite in Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control. Oracle described a remote confidentiality impact; third parties characterized it as possible directory traversal file disclosure. There is no KEV listing or provided evidence of active exploitation. Exposure is most likely where affected Oracle Application Testing Suite or Enterprise Manager Grid Control components are reachable by untrusted networks or broad internal users. Treat this as a legacy Oracle confidentiality risk requiring inventory and patch confirmation, especially for externally reachable systems or environments storing sensitive files. Mitigation focus: Apply Oracle’s January 2016 Critical Patch Update or later applicable Oracle guidance.; Restrict network access to Oracle Application Testing Suite management and testing interfaces.; Retire or upgrade affected 12.4.0.2 and 12.5.0.2 deployments where possible..
