OVERVIEW

         Oracle Insurance Policy Administration, versions  10.0,
          10.1,  10.2,  11.0
        [1]


IMPACT

        The vendor has provided the following information regarding
        the vulnerabilities:
        
        "This Critical Patch Update contains 2 new security fixes
        for Oracle Insurance Applications.   Both of these
        vulnerabilities may be remotely exploitable without
        authentication,  i.e.,  may be exploited over a network
        without requiring user credentials." [1]
        
        
        
        "CVE-2017-5645
        
        9.8
        
        AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
        
        Supported versions that are affected are 12.1.0.5 and
        13.2.x. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows
        unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTP to
        compromise Enterprise Manager Base Platform.  Successful
        attacks of this vulnerability can result in takeover of
        Enterprise Manager Base Platform.
        
        CVE-2018-1275
        
        9.8
        
        AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
        
        The supported version that is affected is 10.1. Easily
        exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker
        with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle
        Application Testing Suite.  Successful attacks of this
        vulnerability can result in takeover of Oracle Application
        Testing Suite." [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]
