Integrity: High
Availability: None

Bold values are the worst case: easiest to exploit or largest impact.

Attack Vector: Network: The vulnerable component is bound to the network stack and the set of possible attackers extends beyond the other options listed, up to and including the entire Internet. Such a vulnerability is often termed 'remotely exploitable' and can be thought of as an attack being exploitable at the protocol level one or more network hops away (e.g., across one or more routers).
Attack Complexity: Low: Specialized access conditions or extenuating circumstances do not exist. An attacker can expect repeatable success against the vulnerable component.
Privileges Required: Low: The attacker is authorized with (i.e., requires) privileges that provide basic user capabilities that could normally affect only settings and files owned by a user. Alternatively, an attacker with Low privileges may have the ability to cause an impact only to non-sensitive resources.
User Interaction: None: The vulnerable system can be exploited without any interaction from any user.
Scope: Unchanged: An exploited vulnerability can only affect resources managed by the same security authority. In this case, the vulnerable component and the impacted component are either the same, or both are managed by the same security authority.
Confidentiality: High: There is total loss of confidentiality, resulting in all resources within the impacted component being divulged to the attacker. Alternatively, access to only some restricted information is obtained, but the disclosed information presents a direct, serious impact.
Integrity: High: There is a total loss of integrity, or a complete loss of protection. For example, the attacker is able to modify any/all files protected by the impacted component. Alternatively, only some files can be modified, but malicious modification would present a direct, serious consequence to the impacted component.
Availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the impacted component.

Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 15 Jul 2025
Detectable: no evidence on record.
No public nuclei template indexed
Weaponised: no evidence on record.
No public exploit code indexed in Metasploit or Exploit-DB
Exploited in the wildExploited: no evidence on record.

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 2026-10-25.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponised: Public exploit code exists in Metasploit or Exploit-DB, or CISA SSVC reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

AI-suggested

Organizations should immediately assess their Oracle Universal Work Queue deployments to identify affected versions (12.2.3 to 12.2.14). Since no patches are currently listed, implement the following mitigations: 1) Restrict network access to the Oracle Universal Work Queue HTTP interface using firewalls and network segmentation to limit exposure to trusted users only. 2) Enforce strict access control policies and review user privileges to ensure minimal necessary permissions are granted. 3) Monitor logs and audit trails for unusual activity related to Work Provider Administration functions. 4) Employ Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) with custom rules to detect and block suspicious requests targeting the vulnerable component. 5) Engage with Oracle support for any available patches or workarounds and plan for timely updates once released. 6) Conduct internal penetration testing to verify the effectiveness of mitigations and identify any residual risks. 7) Educate administrators on the risks and signs of exploitation to enhance incident response readiness.

Description

Vulnerability in the Oracle Universal Work Queue product of Oracle E-Business Suite (component: Work Provider Administration). Supported versions that are affected are 12.2.3-12.2.14. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle Universal Work Queue. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized creation, deletion or modification access to critical data or all Oracle Universal Work Queue accessible data as well as unauthorized access to critical data or complete access to all Oracle Universal Work Queue accessible data. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 8.1 (Confidentiality and Integrity impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N).

Impact

The impact of CVE-2025-50105 is substantial for organizations using Oracle Universal Work Queue, as it allows unauthorized actors to manipulate critical business data, potentially leading to data corruption, loss of data integrity, and unauthorized data disclosure. This can disrupt business workflows, cause financial losses, and damage organizational reputation. Since the vulnerability allows modification and deletion of data, it could also facilitate further attacks such as fraud or sabotage. The lack of availability impact means systems remain operational, but compromised data integrity and confidentiality can severely undermine trust in the affected systems. Given Oracle E-Business Suite's widespread use in enterprise resource planning (ERP), finance, and supply chain management, the threat extends to multiple sectors including finance, manufacturing, and government agencies worldwide.

Pillar weaknessCWE Top 25 (2025): #19OWASP Top 10 A01:2025: Broken Access Control (opens in a new tab)
The product does not restrict or incorrectly restricts access to a resource from an unauthorized actor.
MITRE discourages mapping vulnerabilities to this broad entry; the root cause is usually a more specific weakness.
Architecture and Design · Operation
Very carefully manage the setting, management, and handling of privileges. Explicitly manage trust zones in the software.
Architecture and Design · Separation of Privilege
Compartmentalize the system to have "safe" areas where trust boundaries can be unambiguously drawn. Do not allow sensitive data to go outside of the trust boundary and always be careful when interfacing with a compartment outside of the safe area.
