I just noticed that Alex Kornbrust has released a new paper on his site titled "Fact sheet about Oracle database passwords".
This is an interesting short paper. It talks about the designer of the algorithm and also where it can be found and some details of its implementation. It then goes on to talk about the location of the passwords, how to change a password, default password lists, Oracle password policies, Brute force attack timings and also where clear text passwords can be found.
