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 checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify PeopleSoft/JDEdwards product versionAccess the PeopleSoft About page (usually via Help > About in the application) or use the PSADMIN utility to query the installed version. Check the version information displayed in the system.Affected if The installed version is exactly 8.9, 9.0, or 9.1
-
Confirm installed componentsReview the installed application modules through the PeopleSoft Application Designer or system configuration. Check which product families are licensed and deployed.Affected if Any of the following components are installed: FMS (Financial Management Systems), SCM (Supply Chain Management), EPM (Enterprise Performance Management), CRM (Customer Relationship Management), or Campus Solutions
-
Verify remote access is enabledCheck the PeopleSoft web server configuration (webservic.properties or psappsrv.cfg) for internet-facing bindings. Review the HTTP listener configuration and the Psigy.xml file for exposed endpoints.Affected if The PeopleSoft application is accessible remotely over HTTP/HTTPS to untrusted networks rather than being isolated on an internal network
-
Check authentication configurationReview the PeopleSoft directory structure and access control settings in PSADMIN or the web profile configuration. Verify that remote user authentication is permitted.Affected if Remote authenticated users can access the application (as opposed to local-only access with strong network segmentation)
Your environment is affected if you are running PeopleSoft or JDEdwards version 8.9, 9.0, or 9.1 with any of the FMS, SCM, EPM, CRM, or Campus Solutions components installed and accessible to remote authenticated users.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataApply Oracle Critical Patch Updates for PeopleSoft and JDEdwards Suite. Restrict network access to PeopleSoft portals to trusted users only and ensure principle of least privilege for authenticated accounts.
