CVE-2021-2082
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 · uneditedVulnerability in the Oracle iStore product of Oracle E-Business Suite (component: Shopping Cart). Supported versions that are affected are 12.1.1-12.1.3 and 12.2.3-12.2.10. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle iStore. Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than the attacker and while the vulnerability is in Oracle iStore, attacks may significantly impact additional products. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized access to critical data or complete access to all Oracle iStore accessible data as well as unauthorized update, insert or delete access to some of Oracle iStore accessible data. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 8.2 (Confidentiality and Integrity impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:L/A:N).
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 · high confidenceVulnerability in Oracle iStore Shopping Cart component of Oracle E-Business Suite. Unauthenticated remote attacker with network access via HTTP can exploit this flaw, requiring human interaction from a person other than the attacker. Successful attacks allow unauthorized access to critical or all accessible data, plus unauthorized update/insert/delete operations on some iStore data.

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.
-
Confirm Oracle iStore is installedQuery the Oracle E-Business Suite database for iStore presence: SELECT application_id, application_name FROM fnd_application WHERE application_name LIKE '%iStore%' OR application_name LIKE '%IBE%'; or check for iStore-related tables and packages in the database.Affected if No iStore installation found means not affected.
-
Determine Oracle E-Business Suite iStore versionRun the SQL command: SELECT patch_level FROM apps.fnd_product_installations WHERE application_id = (SELECT application_id FROM fnd_application WHERE application_short_name = 'IBE'); This shows the iStore patch level which indicates the version.Affected if Version falls within 12.1.1 to 12.1.3 or 12.2.3 to 12.2.10, indicating the system is vulnerable.
-
Verify iStore web component is accessibleAttempt to access the iStore login page via HTTP: visit https://<hostname>/OA_HTML/ibeCAcpSSOR.jsp?store=... or the standard iStore URL path /OA_HTML/ibe* on your E-Business Suite web server. Check if the application responds.Affected if iStore web pages are reachable without authentication, indicating the attack surface is exposed.
-
Confirm iStore is enabled in Oracle E-Business SuiteCheck Oracle Responsibilities assigned to iStore: SELECT responsibility_name FROM fnd_responsibility WHERE responsibility_name LIKE '%iStore%' OR responsibility_name LIKE '%IBE%'; Verify the responsibility is functional and not disabled.Affected if iStore responsibility is active and functional, making the vulnerability exploitable.
-
Check for existing Oracle patchesQuery applied patches: SELECT patch_name, creation_date FROM ad_bugs WHERE patch_name IN ('31720753', '31720754', '31720755', '31720756') OR description LIKE '%CVE-2021-2082%'; Check Oracle E-Business Suite patch inventory for January 2021 CPU patches.Affected if No relevant CVE-2021-2082 patches are applied, leaving the vulnerability unmitigated.
The environment is affected if Oracle iStore version falls within 12.1.1-12.1.3 or 12.2.3-12.2.10, the iStore web component is accessible, and the January 2021 CPU patch for CVE-2021-2082 has not been applied.

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 Update (CPU) for January 2021 that addresses CVE-2021-2082 in Oracle iStore; verify the patch is applicable to affected versions 12.1.1-12.1.3 and 12.2.3-12.2.10.
