CVE-2026-46858
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 APM - Application Performance Management product of Oracle Enterprise Manager (component: JADM, JVM Diagnostics). Supported versions that are affected are 13.5 and 24.1. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise APM - Application Performance Management. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized creation, deletion or modification access to critical data or all APM - Application Performance Management accessible data and unauthorized ability to cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash (complete DOS) of APM - Application Performance Management. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 9.1 (Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/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 confidenceUnauthenticated HTTP network attackers can exploit a vulnerability in Oracle Enterprise Manager's APM (Application Performance Management) JADM/JVM Diagnostics component. Successful exploitation grants attackers unauthorized creation, deletion, or modification of critical data, plus the ability to cause complete denial of service through system crashes or hangs. The CVSS vector indicates no confidentiality impact but high integrity and availability impacts.

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 APM installation and versionLocate the Oracle Enterprise Manager installation directory and check the APM component version. Common locations include $ORACLE_HOME/em/ directory or check the Oracle inventory. Look for version files or use 'opatch lsinventory' for Oracle products.Affected if The installed Oracle Application Performance Management version is exactly 13.5 or 24.1
-
Verify JADM/JVM Diagnostics component presenceCheck if the JADM (Java Application Diagnostics Manager) or JVM Diagnostics component is installed and enabled within the APM setup. Review APM configuration files in the diagnostics directory or check the Enterprise Manager console for JADM/JVM Diagnostics module status.Affected if The JADM/JVM Diagnostics component is present and enabled in the APM installation
-
Confirm APM HTTP interface exposureExamine network configuration to determine if the APM HTTP interfaces are accessible from network sources. Review web server configuration, load balancer rules, or firewall policies that govern access to the APM console and diagnostic endpoints.Affected if APM HTTP interfaces are exposed to untrusted or external network sources rather than restricted to trusted internal networks
-
Audit JADM/JVM Diagnostics configurationsReview configuration files associated with JADM/JVM Diagnostics for any unauthorized or unexpected modifications. Check for altered settings in diagnostic configuration files, especially those controlling data creation, modification, or deletion permissions.Affected if Unexpected configurations are found or unauthorized changes exist in JADM/JVM Diagnostics settings
A user is affected if they have Oracle Application Performance Management versions 13.5 or 24.1 with the JADM/JVM Diagnostics component enabled and its HTTP interfaces accessible to untrusted networks.

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 security patches for Enterprise Manager APM versions 13.5 and 24.1 as soon as Oracle releases them. Until then, restrict network access to APM interfaces to trusted networks only and monitor for unauthorized access attempts.
