Oracle Patches Its Security Patches - Database patches fix flaws found in previous fixes

I found a news article on Monday night on PC World.com. The article was written by Matthew Broersma of Techworld.com and was published Monday 25 July and is titled "Oracle Patches Its Security Patches - Database patches fix flaws found in previous fixes". This is an interesting news article that sums up quite well the embarrassing problems Oracle seem to be having recently with its patch releases. The author says that Oracle has supplied recently a patch for a patch for a patch...

The article goes on to discuss Oracle's woes and also a new security issue in MySQL.
