IMPACT
The vendor has provided the following information regarding the

remotely exploitable without authentication, i.e., may be exploited
over a network without requiring user credentials." [1]
"CVE-2019-0227
7.5 AV:A/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker
with access to the physical communication segment attached to the
hardware where the Oracle Policy Automation Connector for Siebel
executes to compromise Oracle Policy Automation Connector for Siebel.
Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in takeover of
Oracle Policy Automation Connector for Siebel.
Affects:
o Oracle Policy Automation Connector for Siebel 10.4.6
CVE-2019-11358
6.1 AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N
Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with
network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle Policy Automation.
Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than
the attacker and while the vulnerability is in Oracle Policy
Automation, attacks may significantly impact additional products.
Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized
update, insert or delete access to some of Oracle Policy Automation
accessible data as well as unauthorized read access to a subset of
Oracle Policy Automation accessible data.
Affects:
o Oracle Policy Automation 10.4.7, 12.1.0, 12.1.1, 12.2.0-12.2.15
o Oracle Policy Automation Connector for Siebel 10.4.6
o Oracle Policy Automation for Mobile Devices 12.2.0-12.2.15" [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]
