How we verify →
Oracle has disclosed a critical vulnerability in its Access Manager product that carries a maximum severity score.

Oracle rates the flaw at maximum severity. Oracle as the CNA assigns the vulnerability CVE-2026-87337 a CVSS 3.1 base score of 10.0. The score reflects full network accessibility without authentication or user interaction.
An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit the issue to gain unauthorized creation, deletion, or modification of critical data.

The flaw resides in the Authentication Engine component of Oracle Fusion Middleware. It affects versions 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.1.0.

Attackers need only network access via HTTP. An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit the issue to gain unauthorized creation, deletion, or modification of critical data. The same access also grants complete reading of all Oracle Access Manager accessible data.
