CVE-2026-46779
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 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 vulnerability in Oracle WebCenter Enterprise Capture's Client Bundle component. Low-privileged attackers with network access via the T3 protocol (Oracle WebLogic RMI) can achieve remote code execution and complete system takeover. The scope change indicates attacks can impact additional Oracle products in the environment.

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 Oracle WebCenter Enterprise Capture installationSearch for WebCenter Enterprise Capture installation directories or check for the 'capture' application component in Oracle WebLogic Server domain configurations. Look for the product in Oracle inventory files or WebLogic deployment manifests.Affected if Oracle WebCenter Enterprise Capture is installed and the version matches 12.2.1.4.0 or 14.1.2.0.0
-
Confirm installed versionLocate version information in the product's manifest, Oracle inventory, or WebLogic console for the WebCenter Enterprise Capture deployment. Compare against the affected versions.Affected if The installed version is exactly 12.2.1.4.0 or exactly 14.1.2.0.0
-
Verify T3 protocol listener is accessibleCheck WebLogic Server configuration for enabled T3 or T3S listeners. Review network listeners in the WebLogic Administration Console or config.xml. Use network scanning to confirm port 7001 (default T3) or custom T3 ports are accepting connections.Affected if T3 protocol listener is enabled and network-accessible to untrusted actors
-
Check Client Bundle component statusExamine the WebCenter Enterprise Capture deployment configuration in WebLogic to determine if the Client Bundle component is deployed and active. Look for client-bundle related resources in the application configuration.Affected if The Client Bundle component of WebCenter Enterprise Capture is deployed and running
A user is affected if they have Oracle WebCenter Enterprise Capture version 12.2.1.4.0 or 14.1.2.0.0 installed with the Client Bundle component enabled and an accessible T3 protocol listener.
