CVE-2026-70796

High-privilege access and modification of financial data

Published Aug 18, 2026 · Updated Aug 25, 2026

Improper access control in Oracle General Ledger 12.2.3 through 12.2.15 allows local users to read and modify financial data. Oracle identifies Internal Operations as the affected component but has not published the specific access-control operation that mishandles untrusted input. Exploitation requires a high-privileged infrastructure logon and high complexity; successful access can expose or alter all application-accessible data and significantly affect additional products.
