CVE-2017-10092 in Agile PLM
Summary
by MITRE
Vulnerability in the Oracle Agile PLM component of Oracle Supply Chain Products Suite (subcomponent: Security). Supported versions that are affected are 9.3.5 and 9.3.6. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle Agile PLM. Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than the attacker and while the vulnerability is in Oracle Agile PLM, attacks may significantly impact additional products. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized update, insert or delete access to some of Oracle Agile PLM accessible data as well as unauthorized read access to a subset of Oracle Agile PLM accessible data. CVSS 3.0 Base Score 6.1 (Confidentiality and Integrity impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N).

The vulnerability identified as CVE-2017-10092 resides within Oracle Agile PLM component of the Oracle Supply Chain Products Suite, specifically within the Security subcomponent. This flaw affects versions 9.3.5 and 9.3.6 of the software, representing a significant security weakness that can be exploited by unauthenticated attackers. The vulnerability's classification as easily exploitable indicates that attackers require minimal technical expertise to leverage this weakness, making it particularly dangerous in production environments where such systems are often accessible over networks.
The technical nature of this vulnerability allows attackers to compromise Oracle Agile PLM systems through HTTP network connections without requiring authentication credentials. This represents a critical flaw in the application's access control mechanisms, as the system fails to properly validate incoming requests from unauthorized sources. The attack vector operates over the network (AV:N) with low attack complexity (AC:L) and no privilege requirements (PR:N), making it highly accessible to malicious actors. The vulnerability requires human interaction from individuals other than the attacker, suggesting that social engineering or user-based exploitation methods may be necessary to initiate successful attacks.
The operational impact of this vulnerability extends beyond the immediate Oracle Agile PLM system, potentially affecting additional products within the Oracle Supply Chain Products Suite. This cascading effect demonstrates how a single vulnerability can create ripple effects throughout interconnected enterprise systems, potentially compromising data integrity and confidentiality across multiple applications. Successful exploitation enables unauthorized modification of data through update, insert, and delete operations, while also providing unauthorized read access to sensitive information within the system. The CVSS 3.0 score of 6.1 reflects the moderate severity of this vulnerability, with confidentiality and integrity impacts rated as low (C:L, I:L) but with the potential for significant business disruption.
The vulnerability aligns with CWE-287 (Improper Authentication) and represents a clear violation of the principle of least privilege in system security design. From an ATT&CK perspective, this weakness maps to techniques involving Initial Access through network service exploitation and Persistence through unauthorized data modification. Organizations implementing Oracle Agile PLM systems should consider this vulnerability as part of their broader security posture assessment, particularly given the interconnected nature of supply chain management systems. The impact of unauthorized access to product lifecycle management data can extend to intellectual property theft, supply chain disruption, and compliance violations. Mitigation strategies should include immediate patching of affected versions, network segmentation to limit access, and enhanced monitoring of HTTP traffic for suspicious activities. Additionally, organizations should implement comprehensive access controls and regularly review system configurations to prevent unauthorized modifications to critical product data.
This vulnerability demonstrates the importance of maintaining current security patches and the risks associated with running unsupported software versions. The fact that this flaw affects multiple products within the Oracle Supply Chain suite highlights the need for coordinated security management across enterprise applications. Organizations should also consider implementing network-based intrusion detection systems to monitor for exploitation attempts and establish incident response procedures specifically addressing product lifecycle management system compromises. The vulnerability serves as a reminder that even seemingly isolated security flaws can have far-reaching consequences in complex enterprise environments where multiple interconnected systems share common data repositories and access controls.
