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 Oracle Banking Liquidity Management installationLocate Oracle Banking Liquidity Management installation directory or check Oracle inventory files (typically in $ORACLE_HOME/oraInventory/ContentsXML/inventory.xml) for entries containing 'Oracle Banking Liquidity Management' or 'liquidity management'Affected if The product is not installed on the system
-
Verify exact version numberCheck the installed version of Oracle Banking Liquidity Management by examining version files in the installation directory, Oracle inventory, or by querying the application's about/version endpoint if available. The affected version is exactly 14.5.0.12.0Affected if The installed version is exactly 14.5.0.12.0 (no other version ranges are listed as affected)
-
Confirm Reports component is accessibleCheck if the Reports component is deployed and accessible. This may be a web endpoint (commonly /reports, /reporter, or similar), a configured report generation service, or a module within the application. Review application configuration files, deployment descriptors, and accessible URLsAffected if The Reports component is exposed and reachable on the network (the vulnerability exists specifically in this component)
User is affected if Oracle Banking Liquidity Management version 14.5.0.12.0 is installed AND the Reports component is deployed and network-accessible, as the vulnerability resides specifically in that component and can be exploited by a low-privileged attacker with network access and human interaction.
