Alex has produced a detailed document that details all of the schema changes that are made by applying the January Critical Patch Update 2006. This document is called Database Changes CPU January 2006. This is a report generated by RepScan, Red Database Security's repository scanner. The tool shows the differences in the schema from just before the patch was applied and then after the application. Alex has also detailed in the report comments most packages, how they are vulnerable, which functions and parameters are vulnerable and to what and also how Oracle has fixed the issue.
This makes interesting reading.
