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 · unedited
Vulnerability in the Oracle WebCenter Content product of Oracle Fusion Middleware (component: Content Server). The supported version that is affected is 14.1.2.0.0. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle WebCenter Content. Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than the attacker and while the vulnerability is in Oracle WebCenter Content, attacks may significantly impact additional products (scope change). Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized creation, deletion or modification access to critical data or all Oracle WebCenter Content accessible data as well as unauthorized access to critical data or complete access to all Oracle WebCenter Content accessible data. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 9.3 (Confidentiality and Integrity impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:N).

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 confidence

Unauthenticated HTTP vulnerability in Oracle WebCenter Content Content Server (v14.1.2.0.0) allows remote attackers to create, delete, or modify critical data, or gain full access to all accessible data. Requires human interaction from a victim (likely phishing or social engineering), and due to scope change, attacks may impact additional Oracle products beyond WebCenter Content.

MitigationApply Oracle Critical Patch Update for CVE-2026-46785 immediately. Until patch is available, restrict network exposure of Content Server to trusted users only and implement strict monitoring for suspicious HTTP activity.

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 checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Verify Oracle WebCenter Content is installed
    Check for the Content Server installation directory (typically under $ORACLE_HOME/ucm or C:\Oracle\Middleware\ucm) or look for the 'Content Server' Windows service or ucm process running
    Affected if Oracle WebCenter Content Content Server is present on the system
  2. Confirm the installed version is 14.1.2.0.0
    Access the Content Server admin console (usually at /cs/ or /adfAuthenticationMask/ on port 16200 or 8080) and check the 'About' page, or inspect the version file in the installation directory
    Affected if The version displayed is exactly 14.1.2.0.0
  3. Determine if HTTP interface is network-exposed
    Review firewall rules, load balancer configuration, or network ACLs to check if the Content Server HTTP ports (default 16200, 8080) are accessible from untrusted IP ranges or the public internet
    Affected if HTTP ports are accessible from untrusted networks or the internet without proper filtering
  4. Inspect HTTP access logs for suspicious activity
    Examine the Content Server access logs (typically in the installation directory under logs/ or data/applications/weblayout/) for unusual POST requests, unauthorized admin actions, or unexpected endpoint access patterns
    Affected if Logs show unauthorized or anomalous HTTP requests, especially to admin endpoints, from untrusted sources

You are affected if Oracle WebCenter Content Server version 14.1.2.0.0 is installed and its HTTP interface is exposed to untrusted network access.
