CVE-2026-60697 in Site Hub
Summary
by MITRE • 07/22/2026
Vulnerability in the Oracle Site Hub product of Oracle E-Business Suite (component: Site Hierarchy Flows). Supported versions that are affected are 12.2.3-12.2.15. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle Site Hub. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized update, insert or delete access to some of Oracle Site Hub accessible data as well as unauthorized read access to a subset of Oracle Site Hub accessible data and unauthorized ability to cause a partial denial of service (partial DOS) of Oracle Site Hub. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 6.3 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L).

This vulnerability resides within Oracle Site Hub, a component of the Oracle E-Business Suite that manages site hierarchy flows and related operational data. The affected versions span from 12.2.3 through 12.2.15, indicating a substantial release range where this security weakness persists. The vulnerability is classified as easily exploitable, meaning that attackers with minimal technical expertise can leverage it effectively. The attack vector requires only network access via HTTP, making it particularly dangerous as it can be initiated from external networks without requiring physical access or complex authentication mechanisms.
The technical flaw manifests in insufficient authorization controls within the Site Hierarchy Flows functionality, allowing a low privileged attacker to perform unauthorized operations against the Oracle Site Hub system. This weakness enables an attacker with minimal privileges to execute unauthorized update, insert, or delete operations on specific data sets within the application. Additionally, the vulnerability permits unauthorized read access to sensitive subsets of data that should normally be restricted to authorized users only. The impact extends beyond data corruption and disclosure to include partial denial of service conditions, where the system's availability is compromised in a limited capacity, affecting operational continuity.
From a cybersecurity perspective, this vulnerability maps to CWE-284 (Improper Access Control) and aligns with several ATT&CK tactics including TA0001 (Initial Access) through network-based exploitation, TA0002 (Execution) via unauthorized data manipulation, and TA0005 (Defense Evasion) by potentially allowing attackers to maintain persistent access. The CVSS 3.1 base score of 6.3 reflects the balanced impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability domains, with the vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L indicating network-based exploitation requiring low attack complexity but leveraging low privilege levels without user interaction in an unscoped environment.
Organizations should prioritize immediate patch management to address this vulnerability, particularly given its easily exploitable nature and the wide range of affected versions. Network segmentation strategies can provide temporary mitigation by restricting access paths to the Oracle Site Hub system, while enhanced monitoring of HTTP traffic patterns may help detect suspicious activities. Implementing principle of least privilege access controls and regular security assessments of E-Business Suite components will strengthen overall defense posture against similar vulnerabilities in the future. The vulnerability demonstrates the critical importance of maintaining up-to-date security patches for enterprise applications, as even low privilege attackers can cause significant damage when legitimate access controls are bypassed.
