The vulnerability in question is CVE-2026-101767 (CVSS score: 9.8) in the Oracle Application Object Library of Oracle E-Business Suite. It was patched by Oracle last week as part of its Critical Patch Update. Security researchers","Threat actors are actively exploiting CVE-2026-101767, a critical unauthenticated SQL injection vulnerability (CVSS 9.8) in Oracle E-Business Suite's Thin Client Framework that chains to remote code execution. The flaw was patched by Oracle in its latest Critical Patch Update, but Defused Cyber detected exploratory probes within hours of the patch release. Successful exploitation allows attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands and OS commands with EBS application privileges, potentially exposing sensitive financial, payroll, HR, and procurement data.","Hackers probe critical Oracle E-Business Suite RCE flaw days after patch
