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 Platform Security for Java installation
    Search for Oracle Platform Security for Java processes, services, or installation directories on the system. Common locations include Oracle Fusion Middleware home directories under $ORACLE_HOME.
    Affected if Oracle Platform Security for Java is installed and running on the system
  2. Check installed version against affected releases
    Locate and inspect version files or use Oracle inventory commands (such as 'opatch lsinventory' or checking the product's about/VERSION files) to determine the exact installed version of Oracle Platform Security for Java.
    Affected if The installed version is exactly 12.2.1.4.0 or exactly 14.1.2.0.0
  3. Verify Centralized Thirdparty Jars component is configured
    Check the Oracle Platform Security configuration files (such as config.xml or security configuration XML files) for the presence and enabled status of the Centralized Thirdparty Jars component/module.
    Affected if The Centralized Thirdparty Jars component is present and enabled in the configuration
  4. Check network accessibility of HTTP endpoints
    Review network listeners, HTTP ports, and web container configurations to determine if the Oracle Platform Security for Java HTTP endpoints are exposed to the network.
    Affected if HTTP endpoints for Oracle Platform Security are accessible over the network to untrusted users

A system is affected if Oracle Platform Security for Java versions 12.2.1.4.0 or 14.1.2.0.0 are installed, the Centralized Thirdparty Jars component is enabled, and HTTP endpoints are network-accessible to low-privileged attackers.
