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. Verify Oracle E-Business Suite installation
    Query the Oracle database for the application version using SELECT version FROM apps.fnd_product_groups or check the login page footer for version information
    Affected if The installed version is Oracle E-Business Suite 12.2.13
  2. Confirm Oracle Process Manufacturing Product Development module
    Check if the Process Manufacturing Product Development module is installed and accessible - review the Oracle Applications menu structure or query Oracle modules table for 'Process Manufacturing' component
    Affected if The Process Manufacturing Product Development module is present in the installation
  3. Identify Quality Management Specs component
    Verify the Quality Management Specs component is available within the Process Manufacturing Product Development module - check module navigation or Oracle FND tables for this specific component
    Affected if Quality Management Specs component is present and accessible in the application
  4. Confirm exact version is 12.2.13
    Check the specific version of the Quality Management Specs component in Oracle's version or patch information tables, or review the Oracle Applications About page for this component
    Affected if The Quality Management Specs component version is exactly 12.2.13

If Oracle E-Business Suite 12.2.13 is running with the Process Manufacturing Product Development Quality Management Specs component enabled, the environment is affected by this CVE.

Mitigation available No clean upgrade yet — mitigate in the meantime
Mitigation

Apply the relevant Oracle Critical Patch Update (CPU) for CVE-2024-21153 to the Oracle E-Business Suite 12.2.13 installation, focusing on the Process Manufacturing Product Development Quality Management Specs component.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence

Apply the April 2024 CPU patch for Oracle E-Business Suite 12.2.13 (or subsequent CPU that addresses CVE-2024-21153)

  1. 1. Log in to Oracle Support Portal (support.oracle.com) with a valid Oracle E-Business Suite support account
  2. 2. Search for CVE-2024-21153 or the Oracle CPU (Critical Patch Update) for April 2024
  3. 3. Locate the specific patch for Oracle Process Manufacturing Product Development (Quality Management Specs component)
  4. 4. Download the relevant patch following Oracle's patch retrieval instructions
  5. 5. Apply the patch following Oracle's standard E-Business Suite patch application procedures, which typically involves: backing up the environment, running the patch in dry-run mode, then applying the patch, and running post-installation verification scripts
  6. 6. Verify the patch was applied successfully by checking the Oracle applications version and testing the Quality Management Specs functionality
Caveat Oracle CPU patches are cumulative; applying CPU patches to E-Business Suite environments carries standard risks of regression - thoroughly test in a staging environment before production deployment
