Attack Vector: Network
Attack Complexity: Low
Privileges Required: High
User Interaction: None
Scope: Unchanged
Confidentiality: High
Integrity: None
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: High: The attacker is authorized with (i.e., requires) privileges that provide significant (e.g., administrative) control over the vulnerable component that could affect component-wide settings and files.
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: None: There is no loss of integrity within the impacted component.
Availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the impacted component.

Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 21 Oct 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.
Not in CISA KEV and no source reports exploitation

No attack traffic recorded by OffSeq Mirage sensors

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

1. Monitor Oracle’s official channels closely for the release of security patches addressing CVE-2025-62288 and apply them immediately upon availability. 2. Restrict network access to Oracle Health Sciences Data Management Workbench instances by implementing strict firewall rules and network segmentation, limiting exposure to trusted internal networks only. 3. Enforce the principle of least privilege by auditing and minimizing high-privileged accounts that have access to the Workbench. 4. Implement strong authentication and session management controls to reduce the risk of privilege escalation or misuse. 5. Conduct regular security audits and monitoring of logs for unusual access patterns or attempts to exploit the vulnerability. 6. Consider deploying Web Application Firewalls (WAF) or Intrusion Detection/Prevention Systems (IDS/IPS) tuned to detect anomalous HTTP traffic targeting the Workbench. 7. Educate privileged users on security best practices to prevent credential compromise. 8. If feasible, isolate the Workbench environment from internet-facing networks to reduce attack surface.

Description

Vulnerability in the Oracle Health Sciences Data Management Workbench product of Oracle Health Sciences Applications (component: Logger). Supported versions that are affected are 3.4.0.1.3 and 3.4.1.0.10. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows high privileged attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle Health Sciences Data Management Workbench. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized access to critical data or complete access to all Oracle Health Sciences Data Management Workbench accessible data. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 4.9 (Confidentiality impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N).

Impact

The primary impact of CVE-2025-62288 is unauthorized disclosure of sensitive health sciences data, which can include clinical trial results, patient data, and proprietary pharmaceutical research information. For European organizations, this could result in violations of GDPR and other data protection regulations, leading to legal penalties and reputational damage. The exposure of critical data could also undermine competitive advantage and trust in healthcare research collaborations. Since the vulnerability requires high privileges, the risk is elevated in environments where internal threat actors or compromised privileged accounts exist. The lack of impact on integrity and availability reduces the risk of data tampering or service outages but does not diminish the severity of confidentiality breaches in the healthcare sector. The vulnerability's network accessibility means that any exposed Oracle Health Sciences Data Management Workbench instances on corporate or cloud networks are at risk. This is particularly concerning for European pharmaceutical companies, research institutions, and healthcare providers that rely on this product for managing sensitive data.

CWE-267Privilege Defined With Unsafe Actions (opens in a new tab)
Base weakness
A particular privilege, role, capability, or right can be used to perform unsafe actions that were not intended, even when it is assigned to the correct entity.
Architecture and Design · Operation
Very carefully manage the setting, management, and handling of privileges. Explicitly manage trust zones in the software.
Architecture and Design · Operation · Environment Hardening
Run your code using the lowest privileges that are required to accomplish the necessary tasks. If possible, create isolated accounts with limited privileges that are only used for a single task. That way, a successful attack will not immediately give the attacker access to the rest of the software or its environment.
