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 PeopleSoft HCM versionAccess PeopleSoft Application Designer or the About PeopleSoft page (navigate to PeopleTools > About > About PeopleSoft Enterprise HR) to confirm the installed version is 9.2Affected if The installed version is exactly 9.2 (all 9.2 variants are affected)
-

-
Confirm HTTP network exposureDetermine if the PeopleSoft web server is reachable via HTTP/HTTPS from untrusted networks. Check firewall rules and load balancer configurations for port 80/443 exposureAffected if The PeopleSoft portal is accessible over HTTP/HTTPS from external or untrusted networks
-
Review high-privileged account presenceQuery the PeopleSoft security tables (PSROLEUSER, PSROLEDEFN) or use the User Profiles component to identify accounts with high privileges such as HR Administrator, System Administrator, or similar rolesAffected if High-privileged accounts exist in the system that could be exploited by attackers
-
Audit Job Profile Manager permissionsUse PeopleSoft Permission Lists and Role definitions to check which roles grant access to Job Profile Manager functionality (look at roles containing Job Profile or HR permissions)Affected if Roles granting access to Job Profile Manager are assigned to any user account
The environment is affected if running PeopleSoft HCM version 9.2 with the Job Profile Manager component accessible over HTTP to high-privileged users on the network.

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 the Oracle PeopleSoft security patch when available. Until then, restrict network access to the PeopleSoft portal, minimize the number of high-privileged accounts, and monitor for suspicious HTTP activity targeting the Job Profile Manager.
