Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)
Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)
- Leveraging Race Conditions This attack targets a race condition occurring when multiple processes access and manipulate the same resource concurrently and the outcome of the execution depends on the particular order in which the access takes place. The attacker can leverage a race condition by "running the race", modifying the resource and modifying the normal execution flow. For instance a race condition can occur while accessing a file, the attacker can trick the system by replacing the original file with his version and cause the system to read the malicious file.
- Leveraging Time-of-Check and Time-of-Use (TOCTOU) Race Conditions This attack targets a race condition occurring between the time of check (state) for a resource and the time of use of a resource. The typical example is the file access. The attacker can leverage a file access race condition by "running the race", meaning that he would modify the resource between the first time the target program accesses the file and the time the target program uses the file. During that period of time, the attacker could do something such as replace the file and cause an escalation of privilege.

It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as noted in the July 2018 Critical Patch Update advisory : - An unspecified vulnerability in the Oracle One-to-One Fulfillment component of Oracle E-Business Suite in the Print Server subcomponent, which could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to compromise Oracle One-to-One Fulfillment. (CVE-2018-2953) - An unspecified vulnerability in the Oracle Order Management component of Oracle E-Business Suite in the Product Diagnostic Tools subcomponent which could allow a low privileged attacker to compromise Oracle Order Management. (CVE-2018-2954) - An unspecified vulnerability in Oracle Application Object Library component of Oracle E-Business Suite which could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to compromise Oracle Application Object Library. (CVE-2018-2934) Additionally, Oracle E-Business is also affected by multiple additional vulnerabilities in other components and subcomponents. Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application |
