CVE-2026-71111

Local takeover through undisclosed installer flaw

Published Aug 18, 2026 · Updated Aug 20, 2026

Privilege escalation in Oracle Identity Manager 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.1.0 allows local users to take over the application. The flaw resides in the Installer, but Oracle has not disclosed the affected code path or the incorrect operation performed on untrusted input. A low-privileged account with logon access to the host is required; successful exploitation grants full control of Identity Manager data and availability.
