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 and integrity via unknown vectors related to Test Manager for Web Apps, a different vulnerability than CVE-2016-0490. 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 process method in the ActionServlet servlet, which allows remote attackers to bypass authentication via directory traversal sequences following an unspecified URI string.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2016-0487 affects Oracle Application Testing Suite within Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control. Oracle says remote attackers could affect confidentiality and integrity through unknown vectors. Third parties claimed an authentication-bypass directory traversal issue, but the bundle says Oracle did not confirm that detail. Exposure is likely limited to organizations running Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control with the Oracle Application Testing Suite component, especially versions 12.4.0.2 or 12.5.0.2. Internet or broad internal access would raise urgency. Treat this as a priority legacy Oracle exposure check. The issue is old, but affected management systems can hold sensitive operational access, and unpatched legacy Oracle services often persist unnoticed. Mitigation focus: Review Oracle January 2016 CPU guidance for the affected Oracle product versions.; Apply the relevant Oracle CPU or later supported vendor update if applicable.; Restrict access to Oracle Application Testing Suite and Test Manager interfaces..
