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 if Oracle Database Mobile/Lite Server is installedCheck for the product in Oracle inventory or common installation directories such as ORACLE_HOME/mobile or ORACLE_HOME/lite. On Windows, check registry keys under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Oracle for Mobile Server entries.Affected if The product is installed on the system.
-
Determine the installed version of Oracle Mobile/Lite ServerLocate the version file in the installation directory, typically found in the bin or config folder of the Mobile Server home, or run the product's version command if available. Compare the version string to 10.3.0.3 or 11.1.0.0.Affected if The installed version matches exactly 10.3.0.3 or 11.1.0.0.
-
Verify the Mobile Server service is running and exposedCheck for processes related to Mobile Server (such as mserver or mobile-related executables) and identify listening network ports. Common ports for Oracle Mobile Server include 8080, 8888, or custom ports configured during installation.Affected if The Mobile Server service is running and bound to a network interface accessible to users or other systems.
-
Check if unauthenticated network access is permittedReview firewall rules and network access control lists to determine if the Mobile Server ports are accessible from untrusted networks or the internet without authentication requirements.Affected if The Mobile Server ports are open to unauthenticated network access.
The environment is affected if Oracle Database Mobile/Lite Server is installed with version 10.3.0.3 or 11.1.0.0 and the service is running and accessible on the network.
