CVE-2025-61753 is a vulnerability identified in Oracle Scripting, a component of Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) versions 12.2.3 through 12.2.14. The flaw allows an unauthenticated attacker with network access over HTTP to compromise Oracle Scripting by exploiting a weakness classified under CWE-601 (URL Redirection or Forwarding). The vulnerability requires user interaction from a person other than the attacker, indicating a social engineering or phishing vector is involved to trigger the exploit. Successful exploitation results in unauthorized update, insert, or delete operations on Oracle Scripting accessible data, as well as unauthorized read access to a subset of that data. The scope of impact extends beyond Oracle Scripting due to potential scope change, meaning other Oracle EBS components could be affected. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N) indicates network attack vector, low attack complexity, no privileges required, user interaction required, scope change, low confidentiality and integrity impact, and no availability impact. No public exploits are known at this time, but the vulnerability is easily exploitable. This vulnerability poses a risk of data manipulation and leakage within Oracle EBS environments, potentially undermining business processes reliant on Oracle Scripting. The lack of available patches at publication suggests immediate mitigation steps are necessary.

For European organizations, the impact of CVE-2025-61753 can be significant, especially for those heavily reliant on Oracle E-Business Suite for critical business functions such as finance, supply chain management, and human resources. Unauthorized data modification (update, insert, delete) could lead to data integrity issues, financial discrepancies, or operational disruptions. Unauthorized read access could expose sensitive business or personal data, potentially violating GDPR and other data protection regulations, leading to legal and reputational consequences. The requirement for user interaction means phishing or social engineering campaigns could be leveraged by attackers, increasing the risk of successful exploitation in environments with insufficient user awareness training. The scope change aspect means that the vulnerability could cascade to other Oracle products integrated with Oracle Scripting, amplifying the potential damage. Given Oracle EBS's widespread use in European enterprises and government agencies, the vulnerability presents a moderate risk that could be exploited to compromise confidential data and disrupt business operations.

1. Restrict network access to Oracle E-Business Suite HTTP interfaces hosting Oracle Scripting to trusted internal networks and VPNs only, minimizing exposure to external attackers. 2. Implement robust user awareness training focused on recognizing and reporting phishing and social engineering attempts, as successful exploitation requires user interaction. 3. Monitor Oracle EBS logs and network traffic for unusual activities, such as unexpected data modification or access patterns related to Oracle Scripting components. 4. Employ web application firewalls (WAFs) with custom rules to detect and block suspicious HTTP requests targeting Oracle Scripting endpoints. 5. Segregate Oracle EBS environments and limit privileges to minimize the potential scope change impact. 6. Stay updated with Oracle security advisories and apply patches promptly once available. 7. Conduct regular security assessments and penetration testing focused on Oracle EBS to identify and remediate related vulnerabilities proactively. 8. Use multi-factor authentication (MFA) for accessing Oracle EBS management interfaces to reduce risk from compromised credentials.
