Authenticated read and write access via undisclosed flaw
Published Aug 18, 2026 · Updated Aug 28, 2026
Improper access control in Oracle Helidon 4.5.0 allows remote authenticated users to read and modify all application-accessible data via HTTPS. Oracle identifies the Imperative Web Server as the affected component but has not published the flawed operation or how crafted requests defeat its access controls. Low-privileged access is required, and the published impact is limited to confidentiality and integrity rather than service interruption.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
- Affected versionversion=1.0.0 <=1.4.18
- Affected versionversion=3.0.0 <=3.2.17
- Affected versionversion=4.0.0 <=4.4.1
