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.
-
Confirm Oracle WebCenter Sites is installedLocate the WebCenter Sites installation directory or check for WebCenter Sites processes running on the system. Common installation paths include Oracle middleware home directories. Look for 'WebCenter Sites' in installed product listings or running services.Affected if Oracle WebCenter Sites software is present on the system
-
Identify the installed versionCheck the version of Oracle WebCenter Sites. This is typically found in the product's about page, in installation logs, or via the administration interface. The version can also be located in version.properties or similar metadata files within the installation directory.Affected if The installed version is 12.2.1.4.0 or 14.1.2.0.0 exactly
-
Verify network accessibilityDetermine if the WebCenter Sites HTTP interface is exposed to network access. Check firewall rules, reverse proxy configurations, and the listen address configuration in the application server (typically WebLogic) hosting WebCenter Sites.Affected if The HTTP port for WebCenter Sites is reachable from untrusted networks (not restricted to localhost or trusted internal IPs)
-
Confirm the specific version matches affected releasesCompare your identified version against the exact affected releases: 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.0.0. Note that only these specific point releases are listed as affected.Affected if The version is exactly 12.2.1.4.0 or exactly 14.1.2.0.0
You are affected if Oracle WebCenter Sites is installed with version 12.2.1.4.0 or 14.1.2.0.0 and the HTTP interface is network-accessible.
