Oracle WebLogic is a Java application server. An attacker with network access or control of a malicious application server can run arbitrary commands remotely through an Oracle WebLogic Server without user credentials. First, the attacker serializes an arbitrary command or malicious payload and embeds it in a SOAP message. Then the attacker encapsulates the SOAP message in an HTTP POST request and sends the request to the WebLogic Server. Depending on the objective, the attacker can establish a shell session, install cryptocurrency mining software, or install ransomware.
