    Apache PDFBox version 2.0.22 and prior 2.0.x versions. (CVE-2021-27807)

The 17.12, 18.8, 19.12, and 20.12 versions of Primavera Unifier installed on the remote host are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the July 2021 CPU advisory.

  - Security-in-Depth issue in the Oracle Spatial and Graph Network Data Model (jackson-databind) component of     Oracle Primavera Unifier. (CVE-2020-36189)

  - Vulnerability in the Primavera Unifier product of Oracle Construction and Engineering (component: Core     (Apache PDFbox)). Supported versions that are affected are 17.7-17.12, 18.8, 19.12 and 20.12. Easily     exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with logon to the infrastructure where Primavera     Unifier executes to compromise Primavera Unifier. Successful attacks require human interaction from a     person other than the attacker. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized     ability to cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash (complete DOS) of Primavera Unifier.
    (CVE-2021-27906)
