CVE-2026-47002 Overview
CVE-2026-47002 is a URL redirection vulnerability [CWE-601] in the UI Framework component of Oracle Enterprise Manager Base Platform. The flaw affects supported versions 13.5 and 24.1. An unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTPS can exploit the issue, but successful attacks require user interaction from a victim other than the attacker. Because the vulnerability produces a scope change, exploitation can significantly impact additional products beyond Oracle Enterprise Manager Base Platform itself. Successful attacks can lead to unauthorized create, update, or delete access to a subset of accessible data, along with limited unauthorized read access.
Critical Impact
Attackers can leverage the flaw to redirect authenticated Oracle Enterprise Manager users to attacker-controlled destinations, enabling phishing and limited unauthorized data modification across affected products.
Affected Products
- Oracle Enterprise Manager Base Platform version 13.5
- Oracle Enterprise Manager Base Platform version 24.1
- UI Framework component within Oracle Enterprise Manager

Technical Details for CVE-2026-47002
Vulnerability Analysis
The vulnerability resides in the UI Framework component of Oracle Enterprise Manager Base Platform. It is categorized under [CWE-601] URL Redirection to Untrusted Site, commonly referred to as open redirect. The issue is network-exploitable over HTTPS and does not require prior authentication. However, exploitation depends on a legitimate user clicking a crafted link or interacting with attacker-supplied input. The scope change indicates that the compromised UI Framework can influence resources managed by other Oracle products through the Enterprise Manager console. The EPSS score is approximately 0.238% with a percentile near 14.9, indicating low observed exploitation likelihood at publication time.
Root Cause
The UI Framework accepts redirect targets without adequately validating or restricting the destination against an allowlist of trusted URLs. Attackers can craft a request that instructs the application to send an authenticated user to an external location under attacker control after the user interacts with the link.
Attack Vector
An attacker constructs a malicious URL that references a legitimate Oracle Enterprise Manager endpoint but supplies an attacker-controlled destination parameter. The attacker then delivers the URL to a victim through phishing, chat, or web content. When the victim clicks the link while authenticated to Enterprise Manager, the UI Framework redirects the browser to the attacker's site. The attacker can then harvest credentials, deliver malicious payloads, or trick the user into performing state-changing operations that yield limited write access within Enterprise Manager and, due to scope change, in connected products.
No verified public proof-of-concept code is available. Refer to the Oracle Security Alert July 2026 for vendor-supplied technical details.
Detection Methods for CVE-2026-47002
Indicators of Compromise
- Outbound HTTP referrer chains originating from Oracle Enterprise Manager URLs and terminating on unfamiliar external domains.
- Web server access logs showing redirect parameters containing fully qualified external URLs or encoded characters designed to bypass filters.
- Phishing lures that embed legitimate Oracle Enterprise Manager hostnames combined with suspicious query strings.
Detection Strategies
- Inspect Enterprise Manager access logs for requests to UI Framework endpoints that carry redirect, returnUrl, or target style parameters pointing to non-Oracle hosts.
- Correlate authenticated Enterprise Manager sessions with subsequent redirects to external domains within short time windows.
- Alert on Enterprise Manager URLs distributed through email or messaging systems that include long, encoded query parameters.
Monitoring Recommendations
- Forward Oracle Enterprise Manager HTTP server logs to a centralized analytics platform and retain them for retrospective hunting.
- Monitor authentication events for administrators who follow external redirects shortly before privilege changes or configuration edits.
- Enable browser or proxy telemetry that records the full referrer chain when users navigate away from Enterprise Manager consoles.
How to Mitigate CVE-2026-47002
Immediate Actions Required
- Apply the fixes contained in the Oracle Critical Patch Update July 2026 to all Oracle Enterprise Manager Base Platform 13.5 and 24.1 deployments.
- Inventory every Enterprise Manager instance, including non-production and disaster recovery environments, and prioritize patching for internet-reachable consoles.
- Notify administrators about the phishing risk and instruct them to inspect Enterprise Manager URLs before clicking, especially those received by email.
Patch Information
Oracle addressed CVE-2026-47002 in the July 2026 Critical Patch Update. Administrators should download and apply the patches referenced in the Oracle Security Alert July 2026 for the specific Enterprise Manager release in use. No supported workaround from the vendor replaces the patch.
Workarounds
- Restrict network access to the Enterprise Manager console using firewall rules, VPN, or reverse proxy allowlists until patching completes.
- Configure web application firewall rules to block or sanitize Enterprise Manager requests containing external URLs in redirect parameters.
- Enforce multi-factor authentication for all Enterprise Manager users to reduce the value of credentials harvested through redirect-based phishing.
