Security bug in 10.2.0.2 not fixed yet

October 13th, 2006 by Pete

Post to del.icio.us   Post to Furl   Digg!

I saw a post on the pythian blog today titled "Oracle Patch 10.2.0.3 - Bugs We’ve Seen" and went for a look. The interesting part for me was the link to a post on metalink describing a security but that in the right circumstances allows SQL statements to be executed under the wrong schema. This is not fixed yet and the metalink notes states that 10.2 is more vulnerable than 10.1. Read it and take precautions if you are on 10g.
