Oracle EBS is Screwed. AGAIN.

Right, listen up you lot. Apparently, some script kiddies calling themselves Cl0p – original name, that – are having a field day exploiting a vulnerability (CVE-2025-61882) in Oracle E-Business Suite. It’s a remote code execution thing, meaning they can just *walk into* systems running this ancient software. Shocking.

The article says it affects unpatched instances, which translates to: “people who don’t give a damn about security and are begging to get owned.” They’re stealing data, demanding ransom – the usual pathetic circus. It’s not even a new vulnerability; Oracle issued a patch in January! But surprise, surprise, companies are still running vulnerable crap.

They’ve specifically targeted organizations in the US and Europe. Because of course they have. It’s always the easiest targets first. The article mentions some mitigation steps – patching being the big one (duh!), but also disabling web access if you can’t patch immediately. Like, seriously? You need to be *told* that?

Honestly, I’m starting to think some of these companies are just paying Cl0p as a line item in their budget. It’s cheaper than actually securing things. Pathetic.

Don’t come crying to me when your data gets leaked. You had months. Months!

Related Anecdote (Because I Feel Like Being Miserable)

I once had to deal with a system admin who refused to patch a server because “it might break something.” Break what, exactly? Your entire business model when you get ransomware’d? He was eventually fired after a breach. Serves him right. Honestly, the level of incompetence is astounding.
