CVE-2021-35581: Vulnerability in the Oracle Applications Manager product of Oracle E-Business Suite (component: View Reports).

Vulnerability in the Oracle Applications Manager product of Oracle E-Business Suite (component: View Reports). Supported versions that are affected are 12.1.3 and 12.2.3-12.2.10. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle Applications Manager. Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than the attacker and while the vulnerability is in Oracle Applications Manager, attacks may significantly impact additional products. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized update, insert or delete access to some of Oracle Applications Manager accessible data. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 4.7 (Integrity impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:N/I:L/A:N).

Security readout for executives and security teams

Plain-English summary

CVE-2021-35581 affects Oracle Applications Manager in Oracle E-Business Suite. An unauthenticated attacker who can reach it over HTTP could, with user interaction, change some accessible data. The issue is integrity-focused, not described as data theft or service outage. It is not listed as KEV in the provided bundle.

Executive priority

Treat as a moderate-priority remediation item for affected Oracle E-Business Suite environments, especially internet-facing or broadly accessible internal systems. Business risk is unauthorized data modification, not confirmed data theft or outage.

Technical view

Oracle reports a View Reports component vulnerability in Oracle Applications Manager, affecting EBS versions 12.1.3 and 12.2.3 through 12.2.10. CVSS 3.1 is 4.7: network exploitable, low complexity, no privileges, user interaction required, changed scope, low integrity impact, no confidentiality or availability impact.

Likely exposure

Exposure is most relevant where affected Oracle E-Business Suite instances or Oracle Applications Manager endpoints are reachable over HTTP by untrusted users. Internal-only deployments still matter if many users or partners can access them.

Exploitation context

The sources say exploitation is easy and unauthenticated over HTTP, but requires interaction by someone other than the attacker. The bundle does not cite active exploitation, public exploit use, or CISA KEV inclusion.

Researcher notes

The source bundle provides affected versions, vector, impact, and Oracle advisory reference, but no CWE, root cause, endpoint details, exploit indicators, or specific fixed version. Avoid assuming exploitability beyond the stated HTTP, unauthenticated, user-interaction conditions.

Mitigation direction

  • Identify Oracle E-Business Suite versions 12.1.3 and 12.2.3 through 12.2.10.
  • Review Oracle’s October 2021 Critical Patch Update guidance for this CVE.
  • Apply the applicable Oracle-supported security update or vendor-directed remediation.
  • Restrict HTTP access to Oracle Applications Manager from untrusted networks where feasible.
  • Prioritize monitoring for unexpected changes to Applications Manager accessible data.

Validation and detection

  • Inventory deployed Oracle E-Business Suite and Oracle Applications Manager versions.
  • Confirm whether View Reports functionality is present and reachable over HTTP.
  • Verify Oracle CPU October 2021 remediation status in patch records.
  • Review access logs for suspicious unauthenticated requests to relevant endpoints.
  • Check change records for unauthorized updates, inserts, or deletes in accessible data.
