8.1
AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

17.12. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows low
privileged attacker with network access via HTTP to
compromise Primavera P6 Enterprise Project Portfolio
Management. While the vulnerability is in Primavera P6
Enterprise Project Portfolio Management, attacks may
significantly impact additional products. Successful
attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized
access to critical data or complete access to all Primavera
P6 Enterprise Project Portfolio Management accessible data.
CVE-2017-5662
7.3
AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:H
The supported version that is affected is 6.3.0. Easily
exploitable vulnerability allows low privileged attacker
with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle
Communications MetaSolv Solution. Successful attacks
require human interaction from a person other than the
attacker. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can
result in unauthorized access to critical data or complete
access to all Oracle Communications MetaSolv Solution
accessible data and unauthorized ability to cause a hang or
frequently repeatable crash (complete DOS) of Oracle
Communications MetaSolv Solution." [2]
MITIGATION
Oracle states:
"Due to the threat posed by a successful attack, Oracle
strongly recommends that customers apply CPU fixes as soon
as possible. Until you apply the CPU fixes, it may be
possible to reduce the risk of successful attack by blocking
network protocols required by an attack. For attacks that
require certain privileges or access to certain packages,
removing the privileges or the ability to access the
packages from users that do not need the privileges may help
reduce the risk of successful attack. Both approaches may
break application functionality, so Oracle strongly
recommends that customers test changes on non-production
systems. Neither approach should be considered a long-term
solution as neither corrects the underlying problem." [1]
