Vulnerability in the Oracle GlassFish Server component of Oracle Fusion Middleware (subcomponent: Java Server Faces). The supported version that is affected is 3.1.2. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle GlassFish Server. Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than the attacker. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized creation, deletion or modification access to critical data or all Oracle GlassFish Server accessible data as well as unauthorized access to critical data or complete access to all Oracle GlassFish Server accessible data and unauthorized ability to cause a partial denial of service (partial DOS) of Oracle GlassFish Server. CVSS 3.0 Base Score 8.3 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:L).

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2018-2911 affects Oracle GlassFish Server 3.1.2. An unauthenticated attacker reachable over HTTP could compromise the server if a separate user interaction occurs. Successful impact could expose or alter critical data accessible to GlassFish and cause partial service disruption. The source bundle does not show active exploitation. Exposure is likely limited to organizations still running Oracle GlassFish Server 3.1.2, especially if reachable by internal or external HTTP clients. Evidence does not identify later versions, forks, downstream products, or configurations as affected. Treat this as high priority for any remaining GlassFish Server 3.1.2 environment. The business risk is unauthorized access to or modification of critical application data, with some service disruption potential. Urgency increases sharply if the server is internet-facing or supports sensitive workflows. Mitigation focus: Review Oracle October 2018 Critical Patch Update guidance for CVE-2018-2911.; Apply the vendor-supported fix or upgrade path for GlassFish Server 3.1.2.; Restrict HTTP access to GlassFish administrative and application surfaces where operationally possible..
