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.
-
Determine PeopleTools versionAccess the PeopleSoft 'About PeopleSoft' page (typically via PeopleTools > Utilities > About) or query the PSVERSION table for the current tools release version.Affected if The installed PeopleTools version is 8.60, 8.61, or 8.62
-
Verify Push Notifications is configuredCheck if Push Notifications functionality is enabled in the PeopleSoft system via PeopleTools > Integration Broker > Integration Gateway > Push Notifications or similar integration settings.Affected if Push Notifications component is enabled and configured in the environment
-
Check for authenticated user accessDetermine if low-privileged authenticated users have access to the Push Notifications feature through any portal or integration interface.Affected if Low-privileged (non-admin) authenticated users can access Push Notifications functionality via HTTP endpoints
-
Review HTTP endpoint exposureInspect the PeopleSoft integration gateway and web profile configuration to identify exposed Push Notification HTTP endpoints (typically under /psc/serv/ or /psp/ paths).Affected if Push Notifications HTTP endpoints are accessible over HTTP without proper input validation controls
You are affected if your PeopleTools version is 8.60, 8.61, or 8.62 AND the Push Notifications component is enabled and accessible to authenticated users via HTTP.

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.
From vendor dataApply Oracle's Critical Patch Update for PeopleSoft Enterprise PeopleTools or upgrade to a patched version. Restrict network access to PeopleSoft services and implement input validation on Push Notifications endpoints.
