to 7.0.0.1. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows low privileged
attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle Health
Sciences InForm. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result
in unauthorized creation, deletion or modification access to critical
data or all Oracle Health Sciences InForm accessible data as well as
unauthorized access to critical data or complete access to all Oracle
Health Sciences InForm accessible data and unauthorized ability to
cause a partial denial of service (partial DOS) of Oracle Health
Sciences InForm.
Affects:
o Oracle Health Sciences InForm Prior to 6.3.1.3, Prior to
7.0.0.1
CVE-2023-21922
6.8 AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N
Supported versions that are affected are Prior to 6.3.1.3 and Prior
to 7.0.0.1. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated
attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle Health
Sciences InForm. Successful attacks require human interaction from a
person other than the attacker. Successful attacks of this
vulnerability can result in unauthorized creation, deletion or
modification access to critical data or all Oracle Health Sciences
InForm accessible data as well as unauthorized access to critical
data or complete access to all Oracle Health Sciences InForm
accessible data.
Affects:
o Oracle Health Sciences InForm Prior to 6.3.1.3, Prior to
7.0.0.1
CVE-2023-21993
6.5 AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N
The supported version that is affected is 5.4.0.2. Easily exploitable
vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with network access via
HTTP to compromise Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture. Successful
attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized access to
critical data or complete access to all Oracle Clinical Remote Data
Capture accessible data.
Affects:
o Oracle Clinical Remote Data Capture 5.4.0.2
CVE-2021-41184
6.1 AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N
Supported versions that are affected are Prior to 6.3.1.3 and Prior
to 7.0.0.1. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated
attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle Health
Sciences InForm. Successful attacks require human interaction from a
person other than the attacker and while the vulnerability is in
Oracle Health Sciences InForm, attacks may significantly impact
additional products (scope change). Successful attacks of this
vulnerability can result in unauthorized update, insert or delete
access to some of Oracle Health Sciences InForm accessible data as
well as unauthorized read access to a subset of Oracle Health
Sciences InForm accessible data.
Affects:
o Oracle Health Sciences InForm Prior to 6.3.1.3, Prior to
7.0.0.1

to 7.0.0.1. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows high privileged
attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle Health
Sciences InForm. Successful attacks require human interaction from a
person other than the attacker and while the vulnerability is in
Oracle Health Sciences InForm, attacks may significantly impact
additional products (scope change). Successful attacks of this
vulnerability can result in unauthorized update, insert or delete
access to some of Oracle Health Sciences InForm accessible data as
well as unauthorized read access to a subset of Oracle Health
Sciences InForm accessible data and unauthorized ability to cause a

Health Sciences InForm accessible data.
Affects:
o Oracle Health Sciences InForm Prior to 6.3.1.3, Prior to
7.0.0.1
CVE-2023-21921
5.4 AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N

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]
