CVE-2026-46960
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 Project Portfolio Analysis 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 high privileged attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle Project Portfolio Analysis. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in takeover of Oracle Project Portfolio Analysis. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 7.2 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/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 E-Business Suite's Project Portfolio Analysis component (Internal Operations) affecting versions 12.2.3-12.2.15. The flaw is exploitable via HTTP by high-privileged attackers and allows complete takeover of the affected module, indicating a likely authorization or input validation failure in the Internal Operations functionality.

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 E-Business Suite installationLocate the Oracle E-Business Suite installation directory and confirm the presence of the Project Portfolio Analysis module. Common paths include $ORACLE_HOME/apps/ and associated application directories.Affected if Oracle E-Business Suite with Project Portfolio Analysis component is present
-
Verify the Project Portfolio Analysis versionAccess the Oracle Applications Manager or use SQL query SELECT version FROM apps.fnd_product_installations WHERE product='PA' to determine the installed version of the Project Portfolio Analysis module.Affected if The installed version falls within the range 12.2.3 to 12.2.15 inclusive
-
Confirm Internal Operations module is enabledCheck the Oracle E-Business Suite module configuration to determine if the Internal Operations functionality within Project Portfolio Analysis is enabled. This can be verified through the Oracle Applications Framework responsibility definitions or module lifecycle tables.Affected if The Internal Operations feature is enabled and accessible within the Project Portfolio Analysis module
-
Assess HTTP access exposureVerify that the Project Portfolio Analysis component is exposed via HTTP/HTTPS interfaces. Check the Oracle E-Business Suite Apache/OHS configuration files and the OA_Framework controller mappings for the PA (Project Accounting) module.Affected if The module is accessible over HTTP without additional network segmentation or authentication proxy layers
-
Review high-privilege user accessExamine the Oracle E-Business Suite responsibilities and roles assigned to users who can access the Project Portfolio Analysis Internal Operations functionality. Check fnd_user and fnd_resp tables for elevated privileges.Affected if High-privileged accounts with Project Portfolio Analysis responsibilities exist in the system
A system is affected if Oracle E-Business Suite with Project Portfolio Analysis version 12.2.3-12.2.15 is installed with the Internal Operations module enabled and accessible via HTTP to high-privileged users.

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 the Oracle Critical Patch Update for this vulnerability to the affected E-Business Suite installation, or upgrade to a patched version beyond 12.2.15. Due to the high-privilege requirement, ensure strict least-privilege access controls are enforced for users of the Project Portfolio Analysis module.
