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 · high confidence

Oracle WebCenter Enterprise Capture Client Bundle contains a critical vulnerability exploitable via T3/IIOP protocols (Oracle WebLogic communication protocols). Low-privileged network attackers can achieve remote code execution leading to complete system takeover, with scope expansion affecting additional products. The combination of network accessibility, low complexity, no user interaction, and high impact across all CIA triad elements drives the critical 9.9 severity.

MitigationApply Oracle Critical Patch Updates (CPU) for the affected versions 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.0.0. Restrict T3/IIOP protocol access at network perimeter if patching is delayed.

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 if Oracle WebCenter Enterprise Capture is installed
    Check for the presence of WebCenter Enterprise Capture installation directories or look for the 'capture' application component in Oracle WebLogic Server administration console under Deployments
    Affected if The product is not installed, the vulnerability does not apply
  2. Determine the installed version of WebCenter Enterprise Capture
    Locate the Client Bundle component version file, typically found in the Capture installation directory (often under Oracle/Middleware/Oracle_WC/capture or within the deployment manifest), or check the version through WebLogic Administration Console under Deployments for the 'capture' application
    Affected if The installed version matches exactly 12.2.1.4.0 or 14.1.2.0.0
  3. Verify if T3 protocol is enabled on WebLogic servers
    Check WebLogic Server configuration by reviewing the Administration Console under Protocols > T3, or inspect the config.xml file in the domain configuration directory for <t3-enabled> or <t3> settings, or use WLST to query the ServerMBean.getT3Enabled() method
    Affected if T3 protocol is enabled and accessible over the network
  4. Verify if IIOP protocol is enabled on WebLogic servers
    Check WebLogic Server configuration through Administration Console under Protocols > IIOP, or review the config.xml for <iiop-enabled> or <iiop> settings, or use WLST to query the ServerMBean.getIIOPEnabled() method
    Affected if IIOP protocol is enabled and accessible over the network
  5. Assess network accessibility of T3/IIOP ports
    Verify that T3 (typically port 7001) and IIOP (typically port 7002) listener ports are exposed to untrusted networks by reviewing firewall rules, network segmentation, or performing a port scan against the WebLogic server from an external location
    Affected if These ports are reachable from untrusted network segments

You are affected if Oracle WebCenter Enterprise Capture version 12.2.1.4.0 or 14.1.2.0.0 is installed with T3 or IIOP protocols enabled and accessible from an untrusted network.
