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-2016-0487. 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 UploadServlet servlet, which allows remote attackers to upload and execute arbitrary files via directory traversal sequences in a filename header.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2016-0490 is an Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control issue in the Oracle Application Testing Suite component. Oracle described remote confidentiality and integrity impact. Third-party sources claimed a directory traversal upload flaw, but the bundle says Oracle did not confirm that characterization. Exposure is most likely where Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control 12.4.0.2 or 12.5.0.2 includes the Oracle Application Testing Suite/Test Manager for Web Apps and is reachable by untrusted users or networks. Treat this as a high-priority legacy Oracle exposure if the affected versions are still present, especially on reachable management systems. Urgency depends on whether the component is deployed and patched. Mitigation focus: Review Oracle January 2016 CPU guidance for CVE-2016-0490 applicability.; Apply the relevant Oracle CPU or later vendor-supported security updates.; Restrict access to Test Manager for Web Apps to trusted administrative networks..
