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 confidence

Oracle Production Scheduling Import Utility in E-Business Suite versions 12.2.4-12.2.12 contains an easily exploitable vulnerability allowing unauthenticated network attackers via HTTP to create, delete, or modify critical data. The CVSS 7.5 score reflects high integrity impact with no confidentiality or availability impact.

MitigationApply the relevant Oracle Critical Patch Update for CVE-2024-21088 to the Oracle Production Scheduling module. Until patch application, consider restricting network access to the Import Utility endpoints via firewall or WebLogic/Oracle HTTP Server access controls.

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 if Oracle E-Business Suite is running
    Check for Oracle E-Business Suite processes or listening ports. EBS typically runs on Oracle HTTP Server (ports 8000-8009) or WebLogic. Run: netstat -an | grep -E '800[0-9]|7001' or ps -ef | grep -i oracle | grep -i 'http|weblogic'
    Affected if Oracle E-Business Suite processes or ports are detected in the environment
  2. Determine E-Business Suite version
    Query the database: SELECT patch_level FROM apps.fnd_product_installations WHERE patch_level LIKE '%12%'; Or check the context file at $INST_TOP/apps/<context_name>/appl/admin/<context_name>.xml for the version string.
    Affected if The version returned is between 12.2.4 and 12.2.12 inclusive
  3. Verify Production Scheduling module is installed
    Query: SELECT application_name, application_id FROM apps.fnd_application WHERE application_name LIKE '%Production Scheduling%'; Or check if the module appears in Oracle Applications Manager.
    Affected if The Production Scheduling module (application_id 710 or similar) is installed and registered
  4. Confirm Import Utility is accessible
    Check for Import Utility endpoints in the Production Scheduling module. This is typically accessed via /prodSchedImport/ or similar import servlet paths. Review Oracle EBS concurrent program definitions or OAF page definitions for import functionality.
    Affected if The Import Utility functionality is enabled and accessible via HTTP without authentication

If Oracle E-Business Suite version is 12.2.4 through 12.2.12 and the Production Scheduling Import Utility is exposed via HTTP, the environment is vulnerable to unauthenticated integrity attacks.
