CVE-2026-91623 in Agile Product Lifecycle Management for Process
Summary
by MITRE • 10/22/2026
Vulnerability in the Oracle Agile Product Lifecycle Management for Process product of Oracle Supply Chain (component: Product Quality Management). The supported version that is affected is 6.2.4. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle Agile Product Lifecycle Management for Process. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized creation, deletion or modification access to critical data or all Oracle Agile Product Lifecycle Management for Process accessible data as well as unauthorized access to critical data or complete access to all Oracle Agile Product Lifecycle Management for Process accessible data. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 7.4 (Confidentiality and Integrity impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N).

The identified vulnerability resides within the Product Quality Management component of Oracle Agile Product Lifecycle Management for Process, specifically affecting version 6.2.4 which is part of the broader Oracle Supply Chain suite. This security flaw represents a significant risk to organizations relying on this platform for managing product quality data and lifecycle processes. The core technical issue stems from an insufficient access control mechanism that permits unauthenticated actors to interact with critical system functions over standard HTTP protocols. Although the vulnerability requires high complexity to exploit, meaning it may involve specific conditions or sequences of events to trigger successfully, the lack of authentication requirement significantly lowers the barrier for potential attackers who have network connectivity to the affected service.
From a technical perspective, this flaw aligns closely with CWE-287, which describes Improper Authentication, and potentially CWE-434, Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type if file handling is involved in the exploitation chain. The attacker can leverage HTTP requests to bypass standard security checks that should enforce user identity verification before granting access to sensitive modules. Because the vulnerability allows for unauthorized creation, deletion, or modification of data, it directly compromises both the confidentiality and integrity aspects of the CIA triad. An adversary could manipulate quality records, delete critical audit trails, or inject false data into the system without ever needing valid credentials, thereby undermining the trustworthiness of the entire product lifecycle management process.
The operational impact of this vulnerability is severe, as indicated by a CVSS 3.1 Base Score of 7.4 with High impacts on Confidentiality and Integrity but no direct Impact on Availability in the base vector. Successful exploitation enables an attacker to gain unauthorized access to critical data or achieve complete control over all accessible data within Oracle Agile Product Lifecycle Management for Process. This level of compromise can lead to significant business disruption, regulatory non-compliance due to tampered quality records, and potential financial losses resulting from corrupted supply chain decisions based on manipulated product information. The ability to modify critical data without detection poses a long-term risk as malicious changes may persist undetected until they cause downstream failures in manufacturing or distribution processes.
In terms of threat modeling, this vulnerability facilitates actions consistent with the MITRE ATT&CK technique T1078, Valid Accounts, although exploited here via authentication bypass rather than stolen credentials, and potentially T1496, Resource Hijacking if used for further lateral movement. The network-based nature of the attack vector means that any host or service exposed to untrusted networks is at risk. Organizations must treat this as a critical priority due to the high value of product lifecycle data in regulated industries such as pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and advanced manufacturing where quality management systems are subject to strict auditing requirements like FDA 21 CFR Part 11 or ISO standards.
Mitigation strategies should focus on immediate isolation and patching. Oracle has likely released a security patch for version 6.2.4 that addresses the access control logic within the Product Quality Management module. Administrators must apply this update as soon as possible to close the authentication bypass gap. In environments where immediate patching is not feasible, network-level controls should be implemented to restrict HTTP access to the affected component exclusively from trusted internal IP ranges using firewalls or web application firewalls that can inspect and block suspicious request patterns associated with exploitation attempts. Additionally, enabling HTTPS for all communications ensures encryption in transit, although this does not mitigate the underlying authentication flaw, it prevents eavesdropping on any data exchanged during potential attack sequences. Regular security audits and monitoring of access logs for anomalous unauthenticated requests are recommended to detect attempted exploits early.
