Synopsis

The Oracle GoldenGate for Big Data application on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

According to its self-reported version number, the Oracle GoldenGate for Big Data application located on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

 - Vulnerability in the Oracle GoldenGate Big Data and Application Adapters product of Oracle GoldenGate (component: Java Delivery (Netty)). Supported versions that are affected are 23.4-23.7. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via TLS to compromise Oracle GoldenGate Big Data and Application Adapters. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized ability to cause a partial denial of service (partial DOS) of Oracle GoldenGate Big Data and Application Adapters. (CVE-2025-24970)

 - Vulnerability in the Oracle GoldenGate Stream Analytics product of Oracle GoldenGate (component: Stream Analytics (Netty)). Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with access to the physical communication segment attached to the hardware where the Oracle GoldenGate Stream Analytics executes to compromise Oracle GoldenGate Stream Analytics. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized ability to cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash (complete DOS) of Oracle GoldenGate Stream Analytics. (CVE-2025-25193)

 - Vulnerability in the Oracle GoldenGate Big Data and Application Adapters product of Oracle GoldenGate (component: Java Delivery (Apache HttpClient)). Supported versions that are affected are 23.4-23.6. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTPS to compromise Oracle GoldenGate Big Data and Application Adapters. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized creation, deletion or modification access to critical data or all Oracle GoldenGate Big Data and Application Adapters accessible data. (CVE-2025-27820)

 - Security-in-Depth issue in the Oracle GoldenGate Big Data and Application Adapters product of Oracle GoldenGate (component: GoldenGate Big Data and Application Adapters (Apache Parquet Java)). This vulnerability cannot be exploited in the context of this product. (CVE-2025-30065)

 - Schema parsing in the parquet-avro module of Apache Parquet 1.15.0 and previous versions allows bad actors to execute arbitrary code. While 1.15.1 introduced a fix to restrict untrusted packages, the default setting of trusted packages still allows malicious classes from these packages to be executed. The exploit is only applicable if the client code of parquet-avro uses the 'specific' or the 'reflect' models deliberately for reading Parquet files. ('generic' model is not impacted). (CVE-2025-46762)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Oracle GoldenGate for Big Data version 23.9.0.25.07 or later.
