Unauthenticated takeover via RMI flaw
Published Aug 18, 2026 · Updated Aug 18, 2026
Oracle WebLogic Server 12.2.1.4.0, 14.1.1.0.0, and 14.1.2.0.0 contains an unspecified RMI flaw in WLS Core Components that allows remote attackers to take over the server. Oracle has published the affected component and protocol, but not the code path or the wrong operation on untrusted RMI input, so the underlying defect remains undisclosed in the public sources reviewed. Exposure requires the WebLogic RMI service to be reachable over the network; Oracle rates the result as full compromise with confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact.
