IMPACT: NORMAL
PUBLISH DATE: 23-10-2018
OVERVIEW
A vulnerability was found in Oracle Virtual Directory, which if exploited by malicious users may lead to disclosure of sensitive information, manipulation of data, or may cause a DoS (Denial of Service). Oracle has released updates for patching the vulnerability.
ANALYSIS
The Vulnerability lies in the Oracle Virtual Directory component of Oracle Fusion Middleware (subcomponent: Virtual Directory Manager). A successful exploit can lead to disclosure of sensitive information or data manipulation like unauthorized updates, manipulation of access privileges to the oracle virtual directory, unauthorized read access or partial denial of service of the Oracle Virtual Directory.
The vulnerability has been reported in two of the supported versions of Oracle virtual directory, that are 11.1.1.7.0 and 11.1.1.9.0.
