Summary

The vulnerability in Oracle WebLogic Server allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands by exploiting a flaw in the WLS Security component. Attackers can send crafted serialized Java objects through T3 protocol traffic on TCP port 7001, leading to unauthorized access and control over the server. This poses a significant risk, especially when attackers can leverage this weakness to manipulate the affected WebLogic Server installations.

CISA Reported
