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 takeover of Oracle WebCenter Content. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 9.6 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/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 confidence

Critical unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability in Oracle WebCenter Content Server (v14.1.2.0.0) allows network-based attackers to achieve full system compromise (complete C/I/A impact) without credentials, but requires human interaction from a victim. The scope extends beyond the vulnerable component to affect additional Oracle products.

MitigationApply Oracle Critical Patch Update addressing CVE-2026-46786 immediately. Until patched, restrict network exposure of Content Server, implement WAF protections, and educate users about social engineering vectors given the required human interaction.

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. Identify Oracle WebCenter Content installation
    Locate the WebCenter Content installation directory and check for content server components. Common paths include $ORACLE_HOME/ucm or look for the 'Content Server' service/process.
    Affected if Oracle WebCenter Content Content Server is installed and running
  2. Verify exact version 14.1.2.0.0
    Check the Content Server version through the admin interface, OR check the version file in the installation directory (typically version.txt or similar in the ucm/home directory), OR query the server's HTTP interface for version information.
    Affected if The installed version is exactly 14.1.2.0.0 (this CVE affects only this specific version)
  3. Confirm HTTP service is accessible
    Check if the Content Server HTTP listener is running and responding. Test connectivity by sending an HTTP request to the server's port (typically 16200 or 80/443) using curl or a browser.
    Affected if HTTP endpoints are exposed and reachable on the network
  4. Assess network exposure
    Review firewall rules, network ACLs, or load balancer configurations to determine if the Content Server HTTP port is accessible from untrusted networks or the internet.
    Affected if The HTTP interface is accessible from untrusted or public network segments without proper access restrictions

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