CVE-2026-35285
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 WebCenter Enterprise Capture product of Oracle Fusion Middleware (component: Client Bundle). Supported versions that are affected are 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.0.0. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with network access via T3, IIOP to compromise Oracle WebCenter Enterprise Capture. While the vulnerability is in Oracle WebCenter Enterprise Capture, attacks may significantly impact additional products (scope change). Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in takeover of Oracle WebCenter Enterprise Capture. 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 deserialization/remote code execution vulnerability in Oracle WebCenter Enterprise Capture's Client Bundle component, exploitable via T3 and IIOP protocols. Low-privileged network attackers can achieve complete system compromise, with scope potentially affecting additional products beyond Capture.

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 if Oracle WebCenter Enterprise Capture is installedCheck your system for Oracle WebCenter Enterprise Capture installation directories or inventory listings. Common locations include Oracle Fusion Middleware home directories. Look for the 'capture' component in your Oracle Middleware installation.Affected if The product is not installed on the system, this CVE does not apply.
-
Determine the installed version of WebCenter Enterprise CaptureLocate version information in the Capture installation directory, typically found in manifest files or version properties within the Capture home folder. Check the Oracle Inventory or use the Oracle OPatch lsinventory command if available.Affected if The installed version matches exactly 12.2.1.4.0 or exactly 14.1.2.0.0, indicating the system runs a known affected version.
-
Check if T3 protocol is enabledReview WebCenter Enterprise Capture configuration files and WebLogic Server settings for T3 protocol listeners. T3 is typically configured in the WebLogic Administration Console under the Servers or Cluster configuration. Look for T3 or T3S protocol bindings in the configuration.Affected if T3 protocol is actively enabled and accessible on the network, creating the attack vector for deserialization exploitation.
-
Check if IIOP protocol is enabledReview WebCenter Enterprise Capture and WebLogic configuration for IIOP protocol settings. Check the WebLogic Administration Console under the Servers configuration for IIOP enablement. Verify IIOP listener ports are open and configured.Affected if IIOP protocol is actively enabled and accessible on the network, creating an alternate attack vector for deserialization exploitation.
-
Verify network exposure of T3/IIOP portsIdentify and review open ports on systems running WebCenter Enterprise Capture. T3 typically uses port 7001 (default WebLogic), while IIOP uses port 28001. Use network scanning or port inspection tools to determine if these ports are exposed beyond internal networks.Affected if T3 or IIOP ports are accessible from untrusted or external network segments, allowing remote attackers to reach the vulnerable component.
A system is affected if Oracle WebCenter Enterprise Capture version 12.2.1.4.0 or 14.1.2.0.0 is installed AND either T3 or IIOP protocol is enabled and network-accessible to low-privileged attackers.

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 or upgrade to patched versions; restrict network access to T3/IIOP ports; consider disabling these protocols if not required for business functions.
