SearchSecurity.com talks about the Oracle CPU April 12 patch release



I was contacted by Shawna McAlearney yesterday for some comments on the latest Oracle scheduled patch release. Shawna is the news editor for SearchSecurity.comand she yesterday released a news item about Oracle latest scheduled security patch release. This news item is titled "Oracle releases patches, but not for many known flaws". Shawna details the range of fixes and quotes an Oracle spokesperson. She also then talks about the fact that Alex and Esteban have lists on their sites of over 100 unfixed Oracle security bugs, some of which were reported over 1.5 years ago. She also discusses Alex’s paper detailing an Oracle Forms SQL Injection issue.
