Oracle WebCenter Sites Multiple Vulnerabilities (July 2019 CPU)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 136091

Language:

Synopsis

An application running on the remote host is affected by multiple security vulnerabilities.

Description

Oracle WebCenter Sites component of Oracle Fusion Middleware is vulnerable to multiple vulnerabilities :

 - A deserialization vulnerability exists in the Oracle WebCenter Sites component of Oracle Fusion Middleware (subcomponent: Advanced UI (Apache Groovy)) due to a lack of isolation of object deserialization code. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via HTTP, to execute arbitrary code on the target host.
 (CVE-2016-6814)

 - A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the Oracle WebCenter Sites component of Oracle Fusion Middleware (subcomponent: Advanced UI (Apache Commons FileUpload)) due to an unspecified reason. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to bypass authentication and execute arbitrary commands.
 (CVE-2016-1000031)

 - A denial of service (DoS) vulnerability exists in the Oracle WebCenter Sites component of Oracle Fusion Middleware (subcomponent: Third Party Tools (Apache Batik)) due to an issue with deserialization. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this issue, via HTTP, to cause the application to stop functioning properly. (CVE-2018-8013)

 - A denial of service (DoS) vulnerability exists in the Oracle WebCenter Sites component of Oracle Fusion Middleware (subcomponent: Advanced UI (Spring Framework)) due to an issue handling range requests with a high number of ranges, wide ranges that overlap, or both. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this issue, via HTTP, to cause the application to stop responding. (CVE-2018-15765)

Note that Nessus has not attempted to exploit these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Apply the appropriate patch according to the July 2019 Oracle Critical Patch Update advisory.
