CVE-2026-60807: Oracle E-Business Suite RCE Vulnerability

CVE-2026-60807 Overview

CVE-2026-60807 is a high-severity vulnerability affecting the Oracle Bills of Material product within Oracle E-Business Suite (component: Internal Operations). The flaw impacts supported versions 12.2.3 through 12.2.15. A low-privileged attacker with network access via HTTP can exploit this vulnerability, though successful attacks require human interaction from a user other than the attacker. Successful exploitation results in full takeover of Oracle Bills of Material, impacting confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

Critical Impact
Successful exploitation allows a low-privileged network attacker to fully compromise Oracle Bills of Material, resulting in a complete takeover of the application with high impact to confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

Technical Details for CVE-2026-60807

Vulnerability Analysis

CVE-2026-60807 resides in the Internal Operations component of Oracle Bills of Material, part of Oracle E-Business Suite. Oracle characterizes the issue as easily exploitable over the network via HTTP by an attacker holding low privileges. The exploitation path requires interaction from a separate user, indicating a client-assisted attack scenario such as tricking a legitimate authenticated user into triggering an attacker-controlled request or action.

While the specific technical mechanism has not been publicly disclosed by Oracle, the impact profile — full compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability within an unchanged scope — indicates the flaw allows an attacker to seize control of the Bills of Material module. This can expose manufacturing data, engineering bills, cost structures, and other sensitive business records maintained inside Oracle E-Business Suite.

Root Cause

Oracle has not published root cause details in the public advisory. The vulnerability is documented in the Oracle Security Alert July 2026. The requirement for user interaction combined with low-privilege network access is consistent with client-assisted vectors such as cross-site request forgery, reflected injection, or logic flaws in a workflow triggered by a second user.

Attack Vector

An attacker authenticates to Oracle E-Business Suite with low privileges and reaches the vulnerable Internal Operations functionality over HTTP. The attacker then induces another user, typically a higher-privileged operator, to perform an action that triggers the exploit path. Once triggered, the attacker gains control equivalent to a takeover of Oracle Bills of Material.

No public proof-of-concept exploit has been observed, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog. The EPSS score is 0.359%, reflecting a low probability of imminent mass exploitation at publication time.

Detection Methods for CVE-2026-60807

Indicators of Compromise

Unexpected HTTP requests to Oracle Bills of Material Internal Operations URLs originating from low-privileged accounts
Bills of Material records, cost data, or manufacturing configurations modified without a corresponding change ticket
Session activity where a privileged user's browser initiates actions immediately after visiting an external or unusual link
New or altered administrative entries within Oracle E-Business Suite audit logs tied to the Internal Operations component

Detection Strategies

Enable and centralize Oracle E-Business Suite audit logging for the Bills of Material module, focusing on privileged actions
Correlate web server access logs with Oracle application logs to spot unusual sequences of low-privilege requests followed by privileged operations
Baseline normal user workflows in the Internal Operations component and alert on deviations, especially cross-user request chains

Monitoring Recommendations

Forward Oracle E-Business Suite application, database, and HTTP tier logs to a centralized SIEM for correlation
Monitor authentication events for low-privileged accounts that suddenly interact with Bills of Material Internal Operations endpoints
Track configuration and master data changes in Oracle Bills of Material with change-management ticket cross-referencing

How to Mitigate CVE-2026-60807

Immediate Actions Required

Apply the patches released in the Oracle Security Alert July 2026 to all affected Oracle E-Business Suite 12.2.3 through 12.2.15 environments
Inventory all Oracle E-Business Suite instances and identify those exposing Bills of Material over HTTP to internal or external users
Review privileged account activity in Oracle Bills of Material for anomalous actions preceding patch deployment
Restrict user permissions in the Internal Operations component to the minimum required for business function

Patch Information

Oracle released fixes for CVE-2026-60807 as part of the Critical Patch Update covered in the Oracle Security Alert July 2026. Administrators should apply the patch bundle corresponding to Oracle E-Business Suite 12.2 and verify the Bills of Material module patch level after installation.

Workarounds

Limit HTTP access to Oracle E-Business Suite to trusted network segments and VPN users until patches are applied
Enforce strong session controls, including short session timeouts and re-authentication for sensitive Bills of Material operations, to reduce the window for user-interaction-driven exploitation
Educate privileged Oracle E-Business Suite users about the risk of following unsolicited links or performing unexpected in-app actions during an active session
