CVE-2014-6556 · published 11 years ago
Summary

The DBA tools built into Oracle E-Business Suite versions 11.5.10.2 through 12.2.4 can be used by anyone who can log in to the system to view, change, or delete information and potentially stop the application from working. This means that an insider or a compromised user account could expose sensitive data or cause downtime. Protect the risk by reviewing user permissions, applying any available patches from Oracle, and using strong authentication and monitoring for unusual activity.
