CVE-2020-2794Network attack vector

Unauthorized data access via Email Center requests

Published Apr 15, 2020 · Updated Sep 30, 2024

Oracle Email Center 12.1.1-12.1.3 and 12.2.3-12.2.9 allows remote attackers to access critical data and modify some records via HTTP requests. The Email Address list and Message Display components process attacker-influenced requests in a manner that bypasses intended authorization, but Oracle has not disclosed the precise coding error. Exploitation is unauthenticated but requires a person other than the attacker to interact with the request, and successful attacks can read or alter Email Center data without affecting availability.
