CVE-2026-35263
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: Core). Supported versions that are affected are 14.1.2.0.0 and 15.1.1.0.0. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise WebLogic Server. While the vulnerability is in WebLogic Server, attacks may significantly impact additional products (scope change). Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in takeover of WebLogic Server. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 9.9 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/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 confidenceCritical vulnerability in Oracle WebLogic Server's Core component (versions 14.1.2.0.0 and 15.1.1.0.0) allowing low-privileged remote attackers with HTTP network access to achieve complete server takeover. The CVSS scope change indicates attacks may significantly impact additional products beyond WebLogic itself.

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.
-
Locate WebLogic Server installationSearch for Oracle WebLogic Server installation directories, typically under $ORACLE_HOME or common paths like /opt/oracle/weblogic, C:\Oracle\WebLogic, or /u01/app/oracle/product/weblogic. Check for folders containing 'wlserver' or 'coherence' subdirectories.Affected if WebLogic Server is not installed on the system.
-
Identify installed WebLogic versionCheck the version file in the WebLogic installation directory. Common locations: <WL_HOME>/registry.xml, <WL_HOME>/.product_version, or look for VERSION.txt in the installation root. Alternatively, access the WebLogic Administration Console via HTTP/HTTPS and check the 'About' page, or use WLST (WebLogic Scripting Tool) with command: java weblogic.WLST -printObjName -c 'print domainRuntimeService.getServerRuntime().getWebLogicVersion()'Affected if The installed version is exactly 14.1.2.0.0 or exactly 15.1.1.0.0.
-
Verify HTTP network listener is enabledLog into WebLogic Administration Console, navigate to 'Servers' > 'your_server' > 'General' tab, and confirm 'Listen Port' is enabled (typically port 7001). From command line, check config.xml in the domain directory for <listen-port> entries under <server> elements.Affected if HTTP/HTTPS listen ports are configured and enabled on the affected server.
-
Confirm network accessibilityCheck if the WebLogic listen port (default 7001 for admin, or configured port) is exposed to network accessible IPs. Review firewall rules, load balancer configurations, or OHS (Oracle HTTP Server) front-end settings. Use netstat -an | grep 7001 or equivalent to confirm the port is listening on non-loopback interfaces.Affected if The WebLogic HTTP port is reachable from network addresses outside localhost or trusted management networks.
You are affected if Oracle WebLogic Server version 14.1.2.0.0 or 15.1.1.0.0 is installed with HTTP network listeners accessible to untrusted networks.

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 critical patch updates for WebLogic Server immediately. As immediate compensating controls, restrict network access to HTTP/HTTPS ports and disable unnecessary network exposed services until patches are deployed.
