CVE-2026-71078: Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with logon to the infrastructure where Oracle Agile PLM MCAD Connector executes to compromise Oracle Agile PLM MCAD Connector. Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than the attacker. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized update, insert or delete access to some of Oracle Agile PLM MCAD Connector accessible data as well as unauthorized read access to a subs
CVE-2026-71078 is a vulnerability in Oracle Agile PLM MCAD Connector version 3.6. It allows a low privileged attacker with logon access to the infrastructure where the product runs to compromise it. Exploitation requires human interaction from a user other than the attacker. Successful exploitation can lead to unauthorized read, update, insert, or delete access to some accessible data and partial denial of service. The vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 4.2, indicating medium severity.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability affects Oracle Agile PLM MCAD Connector version 3.6 and involves a security flaw in the CAX Client component. An attacker with low privileges and logon access to the infrastructure can exploit this vulnerability, but it requires human interaction from a third party. The impact includes unauthorized read and modification (update, insert, delete) of accessible data and the ability to cause a partial denial of service. The CVSS vector indicates local attack vector, high attack complexity, low privileges required, user interaction required, unchanged scope, and low impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
Potential Impact
The vulnerability can result in unauthorized read and modification of some data accessible to Oracle Agile PLM MCAD Connector, as well as partial denial of service. The attack requires local access and user interaction, limiting the ease of exploitation. The overall impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability is low, reflected in the CVSS score of 4.2.
Mitigation Recommendations
Oracle has published a Critical Security Patch Update in August 2026 that addresses multiple vulnerabilities across its products, including Oracle Agile PLM MCAD Connector. Customers are strongly advised to apply the available security patches promptly to mitigate this vulnerability. No indication was given that the vulnerability is already mitigated or requires no action. Therefore, applying the official Oracle patches is the recommended remediation.
