CVE-2025-21564 is a vulnerability in the Oracle Agile PLM Framework product, which is part of Oracle Supply Chain. The affected component is Agile Integration Services, with the supported version 9.3.6 being vulnerable. This issue, associated with CWE-732, carries a CVSS 3.1 Base Score of 8.1, with the vector CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:H, highlighting high impacts on confidentiality and availability.
A low-privileged attacker with network access via HTTP can easily exploit this vulnerability to compromise the Oracle Agile PLM Framework. Successful exploitation enables unauthorized access to critical data or complete access to all data accessible by the framework, as well as the unauthorized ability to cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash, resulting in a complete denial of service (DoS).
Oracle has published a security alert detailing this vulnerability at https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpujan2025.html, which security practitioners should consult for specific patch information and mitigation guidance.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Enforces the access control policy that defines permissions on resources, thereby stopping incorrect assignments from remaining exploitable.
Directly requires assignment of only the minimum necessary permissions, preventing overly broad grants on critical resources.
Mitigating Controls (NIST CSF 2.0) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Mitigating Controls (ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Annex A) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
By requiring owners to determine and document the exact permissions needed for each asset, the control reduces the likelihood that default or overly permissive file and resource permissions will be left in place.
Documented provisioning and revocation procedures reduce the chance that critical resources retain overly permissive default or leftover permissions after personnel changes.
Documented authorization, expiry rules, and audit logging of privileged accounts make it harder for critical resources to retain overly permissive or stale permission assignments.
Requiring explicit configuration of access controls and permissions for files, applications and services counters the assignment of overly permissive default or incorrect file-system rights.
Enforcing differentiated permissions on the source-code repository and program listings stops the assignment of overly broad default or inherited permissions to critical resources.
By defining and enforcing secure permission settings in configuration templates, the control reduces the likelihood that critical resources receive incorrect permission assignments.
