On Friday, Oracle released a critical patch for it's Identity Manager, which is part of Fusion Middleware. The vulnerability patched with this update does affect all current versions of the product, and has a CVSS score of 10. The patch comes just about two weeks after Oracle's regular Critical Patch Update (CPU). 

According to Oracle's summary, the patch secures a default account that can be used to log in via HTTP to take over the system. Once these default credentials become known, exploitation should be trivial.
