{"id":"CVE-2026-101574","kind":"vulnerability","aliases":["CVE-2026-101574"],"related":[],"title":"Helidon OIDC flaw lets remote attackers reach critical data","description":"Vulnerability in the Helidon product of Oracle Fusion Middleware (component: OIDC).  Supported versions that are affected are 4.0.0-4.5.5 and 27.0.0. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Helidon.  Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than the attacker and while the vulnerability is in Helidon, attacks may significantly impact additional products (scope change). Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in  unauthorized access to critical data or complete access to all Helidon accessible data as well as  unauthorized update, insert or delete access to some of Helidon accessible data. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 6.9 (Confidentiality and Integrity impacts).  CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:L/A:N).","summary":"Helidon's OIDC component, in versions 4.0.0 through 4.5.5 and 27.0.0, has a flaw that a remote unauthenticated attacker can trigger over HTTP with difficulty and a user's action.
