CVE-2025-61764
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 WebLogic Server product of Oracle Fusion Middleware (component: Core). Supported versions that are affected are 12.2.1.4.0, 14.1.1.0.0 and 14.1.2.0.0. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle WebLogic Server. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized read access to a subset of Oracle WebLogic Server accessible data. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 5.3 (Confidentiality impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/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 confidenceOracle WebLogic Server contains an information disclosure vulnerability in its Core component. Unauthenticated remote attackers can exploit this via HTTP to gain unauthorized read access to a subset of accessible data. The attack is low complexity, requires no authentication, and targets confidentiality only.

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 WebLogic Server installation and versionCheck for WebLogic Server installation directories (typically $ORACLE_HOME or C:\Oracle\Middleware) and locate the version file, commonly found in the registry or version.txt in the installation root. On Linux/Unix, you can also check using the WebLogic inventory or startup scripts that report version information.Affected if The installed version is exactly 12.2.1.4.0, 14.1.1.0.0, or 14.1.2.0.0
-
Verify HTTP/HTTPS listeners are enabledCheck if WebLogic Server is configured with HTTP or HTTPS network listeners. Review the WebLogic Server configuration files (config.xml) for <NetworkAccessPoint> or <Server> elements that define HTTP/HTTPS ports. Common default ports are 7001 for HTTP and 7002 for HTTPS.Affected if HTTP or HTTPS listeners are configured and accessible on any port
-
Confirm the Core component is in useThe Core component is the base WebLogic Server runtime and is always loaded when the server starts. Verify the WebLogic Server process is running and the Core component is active by checking the administration console or by examining the deployed applications and server runtime state.Affected if WebLogic Server is running with the Core component active (default state for any WebLogic installation)
-
Assess network exposure of WebLogic endpointsReview firewall rules, load balancer configurations, or network ACLs that control access to the WebLogic HTTP/HTTPS ports. Determine if the WebLogic administration console (usually on port 7001/7002) or HTTP channels are reachable from untrusted networks.Affected if WebLogic HTTP/HTTPS ports are accessible from untrusted or external network segments
Your environment is affected if you are running WebLogic Server version 12.2.1.4.0, 14.1.1.0.0, or 14.1.2.0.0 with HTTP/HTTPS listeners exposed to the network where unauthenticated attackers could reach them.

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.
dbcve · scopedApply Oracle's available patches for WebLogic Server versions 12.2.1.4.0, 14.1.1.0.0, and 14.1.2.0.0. Restrict HTTP/HTTPS access to WebLogic Server administrative interfaces to trusted networks if immediate patching is not feasible.
