CISA Warns: Oracle Identity Manager RCE Actively Exploited
🚨 CISA has added CVE-2025-61757, a pre-authentication remote code execution vulnerability in Oracle Identity Manager, to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog and ordered federal agencies to patch by December 12 under BOD 22-01. The flaw, disclosed by Searchlight Cyber, abuses an authentication bypass in REST APIs by appending parameters such as ?WSDL or ;.wadl to URL paths, exposing a Groovy compilation endpoint. Researchers showed that Groovy's annotation-processing can execute code at compile time, enabling pre-auth RCE. Oracle released a fix on October 21, 2025; CISA warned the issue is being actively exploited.
