Synopsis

An application server installed on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities

Description

The version of Oracle WebLogic Server installed on the remote host is missing a security patch from the October 2022 Critical Patch Update (CPU). It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities, including:

- Vulnerability in the Oracle WebLogic Server product of Oracle Fusion Middleware (component: Centralized Thirdparty Jars (Bouncy Castle Java Library)). Supported versions that are affected are 12.2.1.3.0, 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.1.0.0.
Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via TLS to compromise Oracle WebLogic Server. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in takeover of Oracle WebLogic Server.
(CVE-2020-28052)

- Vulnerability in the Oracle WebLogic Server product of Oracle Fusion Middleware (component: Centralized Thirdparty Jars (Apache Xerces-J)). Supported versions that are affected are 12.2.1.3.0, 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.1.0.0. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle WebLogic Server. Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than the attacker. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized ability to cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash (complete DOS) of Oracle WebLogic Server. (CVE-2022-23437)

- Vulnerability in the Oracle WebLogic Server product of Oracle Fusion Middleware (component: Web Container).
Supported versions that are affected are 12.2.1.3.0, 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.1.0.0. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows high privileged attacker with logon to the infrastructure where Oracle WebLogic Server executes to compromise Oracle WebLogic Server. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized ability to cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash (complete DOS) of Oracle WebLogic Server as well as unauthorized update, insert or delete access to some of Oracle WebLogic Server accessible data and unauthorized read access to a subset of Oracle WebLogic Server accessible data. (CVE-2022-21616)

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