CVE-2026-46951
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 Quality product of Oracle E-Business Suite (component: Internal Operations). Supported versions that are affected are 12.2.3-12.2.15. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle Quality. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in takeover of Oracle Quality. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 8.8 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/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 confidenceVulnerability in Oracle Quality module of Oracle E-Business Suite (Internal Operations component) allows low-privileged attackers with network access via HTTP to achieve complete takeover of Oracle Quality. The attack requires no user interaction and impacts confidentiality, integrity, and availability equally.

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.
-
Confirm Oracle E-Business Suite installationQuery the Oracle database: SELECT product_version FROM fnd_product_groups WHERE product = 'QB';Affected if No rows returned means Oracle E-Business Suite is not installed or the Quality module is not configured.
-
Check Oracle Quality module versionRun: SELECT patch_level FROM ad_bugs WHERE bug_number = (SELECT SUBSTR(bug_number, 2) FROM ad_bugs WHERE bug_number LIKE '%QB%' ORDER BY creation_date DESC FETCH FIRST 1 ROW ONLY); Or query: SELECT version FROM all_tables WHERE table_name = 'FND_PRODUCT_INSTALLATIONS' AND owner = 'APPS';Affected if If Oracle Quality is present, the returned version/build number will be displayed for comparison.
-
Verify Quality module is enabledQuery: SELECT application_id, application_name, status FROM fnd_application WHERE application_name LIKE '%Quality%'; Or check: SELECT mi.module_id, mi.status FROM fnd_module_instances mi WHERE mi.module_name = 'Quality';Affected if Status must be 'Enabled' or 'I' for the vulnerability to be exploitable; if disabled, the attack surface does not exist.
-
Determine exact Oracle Quality version numberQuery the database for the exact version: SELECT release_name FROM fnd_product_groups; Or check the Oracle Applications About page at /OA_HTML/AboutOracle.jsp for the Quality module patch level.Affected if The exact version/release must fall within >= 12.2.3 and <= 12.2.15 to be affected by this CVE.
-
Confirm HTTP network accessibilityVerify that the Oracle E-Business Suite web interfaces (OA_HTML/ICX) are exposed on network-accessible ports; test with: curl -I https://your_ebs_host/OA_HTML/ICXBNU.htm or check Oracle HTTP Server configuration files in $ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Apache/conf for listener ports.Affected if If the Quality module is accessible over HTTP/HTTPS from the network, the attacker can reach it per the CVE description.
A user is affected if Oracle Quality module is enabled and the installed version falls within 12.2.3 through 12.2.15 with network access via HTTP.

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 (CPU) for Oracle E-Business Suite; Oracle typically releases quarterly CPUs addressing such vulnerabilities in the Quality module. Restrict network access to Oracle Quality interfaces until patching can be completed.
