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 · unedited
Vulnerability in the Oracle WebCenter Enterprise Capture product of Oracle Fusion Middleware (component: Client Bundle). Supported versions that are affected are 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.0.0. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with network access via T3, IIOP to compromise Oracle WebCenter Enterprise Capture. While the vulnerability is in Oracle WebCenter Enterprise Capture, attacks may significantly impact additional products (scope change). Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in takeover of Oracle WebCenter Enterprise Capture. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 9.9 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/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 confidence

Deserialization vulnerability in Oracle WebCenter Enterprise Capture's Client Bundle component allows low-privileged attackers to achieve remote code execution via T3/IIOP protocols. The vulnerability enables complete system compromise (confidentiality, integrity, availability) and represents a scope change where exploitation of this component can impact additional Oracle products.

MitigationApply Oracle Critical Patch Update patches for WebCenter Enterprise Capture or upgrade to a patched version; restrict T3/IIOP network access at the infrastructure level if patching is immediately infeasible.

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 installed WebCenter Enterprise Capture version
    Locate the Oracle WebCenter Enterprise Capture installation directory and check the version manifest or inventory file. Common locations include the ORACLE_HOME directory under Capture folder. Use Oracle Fusion Middleware inventory commands (like 'opatch lsinventory') if available.
    Affected if Installed version matches exactly 12.2.1.4.0 or 14.1.2.0.0
  2. Verify T3 protocol listener is enabled
    Check WebLogic Server configuration for T3 protocol listeners. Inspect the WebLogic Administration Console or config.xml for network channel definitions listening on T3 protocol. Look for entries with 't3' in the protocol or channel configuration.
    Affected if T3 protocol listener is active and configured on any network channel
  3. Verify IIOP protocol listener is enabled
    Check WebLogic Server configuration for IIOP protocol listeners. Inspect the WebLogic Administration Console or config.xml for IIOP-enabled object URLs. Look for 'iiop' in protocol settings or IIOP service enabled flags.
    Affected if IIOP protocol listener is active and configured
  4. Check network exposure of T3/IIOP ports
    Review firewall rules and WebLogic network channel bindings to determine which network interfaces and ports are listening for T3/IIOP traffic. Identify if ports are bound to external-facing interfaces versus localhost only.
    Affected if T3/IIOP ports are accessible from network segments beyond localhost or trusted internal networks

Environment is affected if WebCenter Enterprise Capture version is exactly 12.2.1.4.0 or 14.1.2.0.0 AND T3 or IIOP protocols are enabled and accessible on the network.
