CVE-2026-35301
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 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.1.0.0. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated 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 10.0 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/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 · moderate confidenceCritical unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability in Oracle WebLogic Server Console (versions 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.1.0.0) allows remote attackers with HTTP network access to achieve complete takeover of the WebLogic Server. The CVSS 10 score indicates trivial exploitability (network-based, no privileges or user interaction required) with scope expansion to additional products and full confidentiality/integrity/availability impact.

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 installationLocate the WebLogic installation directory. Common paths include $ORACLE_HOME/wlserver or C:\Oracle\Middleware\wlserver. Check for the existence of the wlserver directory structure.Affected if WebLogic Server is installed on the system
-
Determine installed WebLogic versionCheck the version file in the installation directory. Look for a file named 'version.txt' or 'registry.xml' in the wlserver directory. Alternatively, access the WebLogic Administration Console and check the 'Server' > 'Monitoring' > 'General' page for the version information.Affected if Installed version matches exactly 12.2.1.4.0 or 14.1.1.0.0
-
Verify WebLogic Console is enabledCheck the configuration file 'config.xml' in the domain directory (typically in $DOMAIN_HOME/config/config.xml). Search for <console-enabled> or similar console configuration elements. Also check if the console war deployment exists in the domain.Affected if WebLogic Console is enabled and deployed
-
Confirm console network accessibilityReview network listeners and ports configured for the WebLogic Server. Check the 'config.xml' for <listen-address> settings and verify which network interfaces the administration port is bound to. Test connectivity by attempting HTTP access to the console URL (typically /console) from an external host.Affected if Console is reachable over HTTP from untrusted network locations
A system is affected if it runs WebLogic Server version 12.2.1.4.0 or 14.1.1.0.0 with the administration console enabled and accessible over a 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 Oracle Critical Patch Update immediately; if patches are unavailable, restrict network access to the WebLogic Console to trusted IPs only or disable console access until patched.
