Authenticated payroll data disclosure and modification
Published May 28, 2026 · Updated May 28, 2026
Improper access control in Oracle Payroll 12.2.3 through 12.2.15 allows remote authenticated users to read and modify payroll data via HTTP. Oracle identifies the Internal Operations component but has not disclosed the faulty authorization check or request path that accepts unauthorized operations. Low-privileged credentials and network access to the HTTP service are required; successful attacks expose or alter critical or all accessible payroll data.
