Be the first to know when new zero-days emerge:

Summary

CVE-2026-83023 is a high-severity vulnerability in the Oracle Identity Manager Connector component of Oracle Fusion Middleware. It allows an unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise the Oracle Identity Manager Connector and gain unauthorized access to critical data, potentially reaching all data accessible to that component. Oracle rates the flaw 8.6 (High) under CVSS v3.1 and disclosed it as part of its September 2026 Critical Patch Update.

Technical details

  • Root cause: A flaw in the Core component of Oracle Identity Manager Connector that permits unauthorized data access without requiring credentials.
  • Attack vector: Exploitable remotely over HTTP with no authentication and no user interaction required.
  • Attack complexity: Low — Oracle describes the vulnerability as "easily exploitable."
  • Scope: Changed — Oracle notes that while the flaw resides in Oracle Identity Manager Connector, successful exploitation "may significantly impact additional products" beyond the vulnerable component itself.
  • Impact: Confidentiality impact is High; there is no impact to integrity or availability. Successful attacks can result in unauthorized access to critical data, up to complete access to all data accessible to the Oracle Identity Manager Connector.
  • Privileges required / user interaction: None — no prior authentication or victim interaction is needed to exploit the vulnerability.

Affected software

  • Oracle Identity Manager Connector (Oracle Fusion Middleware) version 12.2.1.4.0
  • Oracle Identity Manager Connector (Oracle Fusion Middleware) version 14.1.2.1.0

Severity

  • CVSS v3.1 Base Score: 8.6 (High)
  • Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:N

Mitigation and recommended actions

  • Immediate: Apply the fix provided in Oracle’s September 2026 Critical Patch Update for Oracle Identity Manager Connector versions 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.1.0. Oracle strongly recommends applying Critical Patch Update fixes as soon as possible, as it does not provide advance notice of specific flaw details prior to release.
  • If immediate patching is not possible: Restrict and monitor network access to Oracle Identity Manager Connector interfaces (including HTTP-exposed endpoints) to trusted networks only, since the vulnerability is remotely exploitable over HTTP without authentication.
  • Ongoing: Verify patch application against Oracle’s official Critical Patch Update documentation and confirm the deployed version no longer matches the vulnerable 12.2.1.4.0 / 14.1.2.1.0 baselines.

How IONIX’s External Exposure Management Platform Detects and Validates
Zero-Days to Shrink MTTR

1

Map your entire attack surface (continously)

IONIX uses multi-factor discovery methods, including DNS analysis, certificate mapping, metadata inspection, and more, to automatically map every internet-facing asset across your environment. This includes cloud instances, third-party platforms, shadow IT, and even forgotten infrastructure that traditional tools miss.

2

Monitor for new CVEs

Dozens of threat intel feeds using agentic technology are continuously analyzed to detect the appearance of proof-of-concept code, exploit kits, and indicators of active targeting. IONIX goes further by applying AI to proactively evaluate whether emerging vulnerabilities are likely to be exploited, even before PoCs go public.

3

Identify Potential External Exposures

Not all CVEs matter. IONIX filters vulnerabilities by asking attacker-centric questions: Can it be reached from the internet? Does it require authentication? Is it being exploited in the wild? This dramatically reduces noise and focuses teams on threats that can actually be weaponized.

4

Create Safe, Scalable Exploit Validations

IONIX transforms real-world PoCs into safe, non-intrusive test payloads that can be run in production environments without disruption. These simulations are precisely targeted to the systems that are vulnerable, ensuring rapid validation without unnecessary load.

5

Execute Exploit Validations

By combining context about software stack, versioning, exposure status, and reachability, IONIX ensures that only the right payloads are executed against the right assets, maximizing efficiency and minimizing risk.

6

Drive Fast and Actionable Remediation

Results are routed through integrations with ticketing, SOAR, and SIEM tools. Issues are written in plain language, bundled into remediation clusters, and prioritized based on asset criticality, exploitability, and blast radius. This shortens mean time to remediation (MTTR) and empowers teams to act with confidence.
