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 · unedited
Vulnerability in the RAS Security component of Oracle Database Server. Supported versions that are affected are 19.3-19.26, 21.3-21.17 and 23.4-23.7. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows low privileged attacker having User Account privilege with network access via Oracle Net to compromise RAS Security. Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than the attacker. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized creation, deletion or modification access to critical data or all RAS Security accessible data as well as unauthorized access to critical data or complete access to all RAS Security accessible data. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 7.3 (Confidentiality and Integrity impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/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
How this class of weakness works · CWE-276

Files, directories, or resources ship with permissions more open than they need to be, so unintended users can read or modify them. Attackers look for exactly these loose defaults. Remediation means tightening permissions to the minimum required and verifying them at install and at runtime.

General guidance for the incorrect default permissions class — the official description and references above are authoritative for this specific CVE. Want a bespoke review and a reviewed fix? Ask our team →

Recommended fix High confidence

Apply Oracle CPU April 2025 patch - upgrade to 19.27+ (19c), 21.18+ (21c), or 23.8+ (23c)

  1. 1. Review the Oracle Critical Patch Update (CPU) April 2025 for complete patch information: https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpuapr2025.html
  2. 2. Identify the specific patch number for RAS Security component for your Oracle Database version (19c, 21c, or 23c)
  3. 3. Download the applicable patch from Oracle Support using the patch number identified in step 2
  4. 4. Review the patch readme and pre-install requirements documented by Oracle
  5. 5. Apply the patch following Oracle's standard patch application process for Database Server components
  6. 6. After applying the patch, verify the RAS Security component is updated to the fixed version
  7. 7. Test that RAS Security functionality operates normally after the patch application
Caveat Oracle patches typically require downtime and should be tested in a non-production environment first; review patch prerequisites and known issues in the CPU April 2025 documentation
