Recommended fix High confidence

Oracle E-Business Suite 12.1.3 with July 2020 CPU applied (subsequent CPUs also contain the fix)

  1. Navigate to Oracle Support and download the July 2020 Critical Patch Update (CPU) for Oracle E-Business Suite
  2. Review the July 2020 CPU patch documentation and release notes to locate the specific patch for Oracle CRM Gateway for Mobile Devices
  3. Apply the relevant security patches from the July 2020 CPU using Oracle OPatch or the standard E-Business Suite patching process
  4. After applying the patch, verify the patch was successfully installed by checking the applied patches in Oracle Applications Manager (OAM) or using ad utilities
  5. Test the Oracle CRM Gateway for Mobile Devices functionality to ensure the patch does not break existing operations
  6. If possible, review Oracle E-Business Suite audit logs to confirm the vulnerability is remediated
Caveat Standard Oracle CPU patches typically have low risk but always test in a non-production environment first; Oracle E-Business Suite 12.1.3 is the terminal release for the 12.1.x line
