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: None: The attacker is unauthorized prior to attack, and therefore does not require any access to settings or files to carry out an attack.
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.

Detectable: 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 29 Oct 2026.

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.
Weaponized: A Metasploit exploit module or Exploit-DB entry exists (Metasploit scanner modules do not count), or CISA SSVC or the CVSS exploit maturity 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

Oracle has published a Critical Patch Update advisory in July 2026 that addresses numerous vulnerabilities across its product portfolio. However, the advisory does not explicitly confirm a patch or remediation for CVE-2026-60170. Users should monitor the Oracle advisory for updates and apply any relevant patches promptly once available. Until an official fix is confirmed, restrict network access to Oracle Hospitality Simphony instances and apply compensating controls to limit exposure.

Description

CVE-2026-60170 is a high-severity vulnerability in Oracle Hospitality Simphony versions 19.8 through 19.10. It allows an unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTP to gain unauthorized access to critical or all accessible data within the product. The vulnerability is easily exploitable and impacts confidentiality without affecting integrity or availability. Oracle has published a Critical Patch Update advisory referencing this vulnerability but has not explicitly confirmed patch availability or remediation status for this specific issue.

Impact

Successful exploitation can lead to unauthorized access to critical or all data accessible by Oracle Hospitality Simphony, compromising confidentiality. There is no reported impact on integrity or availability. The vulnerability can be exploited remotely without authentication, increasing the risk of data exposure.

Summary

This vulnerability affects Oracle Hospitality Simphony, a point-of-sale component of Oracle Food and Beverage Applications, specifically versions 19.8 to 19.10. It permits unauthenticated attackers to exploit the system over HTTP to compromise data confidentiality. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 7.5, indicating high severity, with attack vector as network, low attack complexity, no privileges required, no user interaction, and high confidentiality impact. The vulnerability is categorized under CWE-284 (Improper Access Control). Oracle's July 2026 Critical Patch Update advisory mentions multiple patches but does not explicitly confirm a fix for this vulnerability. No known exploits in the wild have been reported.

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.
