Clop ransomware actors are exploiting a zero-day flaw in Oracle’s E-Business Suite, gaining remote access to critical enterprise systems. The attack threatens global operations, exposing sensitive data across finance, healthcare, and manufacturing networks.

A newly uncovered zero-day vulnerability in Oracle’s E-Business Suite, tracked as CVE-2025-61882, has become the latest target of the notorious Clop ransomware gang. This flaw allows attackers to remotely compromise systems without authentication—giving them full control over Oracle Concurrent Processing through the BI Publisher Integration component. With a critical CVSS score of 9.8, it’s one of the most severe vulnerabilities to surface this year.

Security researchers report that Clop is actively exploiting this zero-day to target Oracle customers across multiple industries, including finance, healthcare, and manufacturing. The group—known for large-scale attacks such as the MOVEit Transfer breach in 2023—has launched a new wave of extortion attempts, warning victims that data theft and system compromise will follow if immediate ransom demands are not met.

The potential impact of this campaign is vast. Oracle’s E-Business Suite powers enterprise resource planning (ERP), supply chain, and finance systems for thousands of organizations globally. A compromise could expose sensitive business data, financial information, and employee credentials, leading to widespread operational and reputational damage.

Oracle has urged all customers using versions 12.2.3 through 12.2.14 to apply the latest security patches immediately and review their systems for indicators of compromise. However, even with patches available, attackers often continue exploiting unpatched systems for weeks or months—making proactive defense more critical than ever.
