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 if Oracle HR Intelligence is installedCheck your Oracle E-Business Suite environment for the HR Intelligence module. This can be verified through Oracle Applications Manager (OAM) or by querying the Oracle Applications tables for the HR_INTELLIGENCE product or module.Affected if Oracle HR Intelligence is not present in the environment, the system is not affected by this CVE.
-
Determine the installed HR Intelligence versionQuery the Oracle Applications version tables or use Oracle Applications Manager to retrieve the version number of the HR Intelligence module. Compare the version against the affected range: 12.2.3 through 12.2.15.Affected if The installed version falls within 12.2.3 to 12.2.15 inclusive.
-
Verify if the Internal Operations component is configuredCheck the HR Intelligence configuration or Oracle Applications Manager to determine whether the Internal Operations component is enabled or configured in your environment.Affected if The Internal Operations component is actively configured or enabled.
-
Assess network accessibility to HR Intelligence HTTP/HTTPS endpointsReview network access controls, firewall rules, and Oracle WebLogic/OHS configuration to determine if the HR Intelligence application is exposed via HTTP or HTTPS to untrusted networks.Affected if The HR Intelligence HTTP or HTTPS interfaces are accessible from untrusted or public networks.
-
Check for high-privileged user accountsReview Oracle E-Business Suite user accounts with elevated privileges, particularly those with access to HR Intelligence administrative functions.Affected if High-privileged accounts with HR Intelligence access exist and are accessible to attackers.
The environment is affected if Oracle HR Intelligence with the Internal Operations component is installed and the version falls within 12.2.3 to 12.2.15, with HTTP/HTTPS network access available to untrusted users.
