CVE-2026-35259
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 WebLogic Server product of Oracle Fusion Middleware (component: Console). Supported versions that are affected are 14.1.2.0.0 and 15.1.1.0.0. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTPS to compromise WebLogic Server. Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than the attacker. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in takeover of WebLogic Server. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 8.8 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H).
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 confidenceUnauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability in Oracle WebLogic Server's Console component affecting versions 14.1.2.0.0 and 15.1.1.0.0. Attackers with network access via HTTPS can achieve complete takeover of the WebLogic Server by exploiting this flaw, but human interaction from a victim is required.

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 versionCheck the installed WebLogic Server version by inspecting the registry, installation directory, or running: java -jar wlserver_14.1.2.0.0/inventory/registry.xml or check the OPatch output: cd $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch && ./opatch lsinventoryAffected if Installed version equals 14.1.2.0.0 or 15.1.1.0.0 exactly (these are the only affected versions)
-
Verify Console component is enabledCheck if the Administration Console is deployed and enabled by examining the config.xml file in the domain configuration directory (typically $DOMAIN_HOME/config/config.xml) for the presence of the Console descriptor, or check the WebLogic Administration Console login page is accessibleAffected if Console component is deployed and accessible at the /console endpoint
-
Confirm network accessibility of ConsoleDetermine if the Console is exposed to network access by reviewing the Listen Address setting in the server configuration (via WebLogic Administration Console > Servers > [ServerName] > General tab, or in config.xml), and test external access via: curl -k https://<host>:<port>/consoleAffected if Console listens on a non-localhost address and is reachable from untrusted networks over HTTPS
A user is affected if they have WebLogic Server version 14.1.2.0.0 or 15.1.1.0.0 installed WITH the Console component enabled AND exposed to network access, since the flaw requires both conditions plus victim interaction.

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 official security patches for this vulnerability to WebLogic Server versions 14.1.2.0.0 and 15.1.1.0.0, or upgrade to a patched version. Until patched, restrict Console access to trusted networks only.
