Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
SQL injection vulnerability in the Oracle Diagnostics module 2.2 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via unknown attack vectors.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

SQL injection vulnerability in Oracle Diagnostics module 2.2 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands. The specific attack vectors are not detailed in available documentation, and the vulnerability has a CVSS score of 7.5 (HIGH), indicating significant risk of confidentiality and integrity impact.

MitigationUpgrade from Oracle Diagnostics module 2.2 or earlier to a patched version; if upgrade is not feasible, implement input validation and parameterized queries in the module's database interactions, and restrict network access to the affected component.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify Oracle Diagnostics module version
    Query the Oracle database for the diagnostics module version: SELECT version FROM all_modules WHERE module_name LIKE '%Diagnostics%'; or check the Oracle Application Manager for installed component versions.
    Affected if Version equals 2.0, 2.1, or 2.2 (any version 2.2 or earlier)
  2. Identify Oracle E Business Suite version
    Query the database for the EBS version: SELECT release_name FROM fnd_product_groups; or check the About Oracle Applications page in the EBS responsibility menu.
    Affected if Version equals 11.5.3, 11.5.4, 11.5.5, 11.5.6, 11.5.7, 11.5.8, 11.5.9, 11.5.10, 11.5.10.1, or 11.5.10.2
  3. Verify if Oracle Diagnostics module is enabled
    Check the Oracle Applications Manager or system administrator responsibilities to confirm the Diagnostics module is loaded and accessible. Look for the Diagnostics responsibility in the user profile.
    Affected if The Diagnostics module is installed and enabled for any user or responsibility
  4. Check network accessibility of the Diagnostics interface
    Review Oracle HTTP Server or Oracle Application Server configuration for URLs mapping to the Diagnostics module (typically under /OA_HTML or /diagnostics context). Verify firewall rules allowing external access to these paths.
    Affected if The Diagnostics module is exposed to network-accessible endpoints without authentication barriers

If Oracle Diagnostics module version 2.2 or earlier, OR Oracle E Business Suite versions 11.5.3 through 11.5.10.2 is installed with the Diagnostics module enabled and accessible, the environment is affected by this SQL injection vulnerability.
