Details of bugs fixed in CPU October 2006 released



I chatted to Alex earlier this evening and he let me know that he has added a new page to his site that analyses the October 2006 CPU. This page is titled "Details Oracle Critical Patch Update October 2006 - V1.00" and it details all of the database related bugs and APEX bugs fixed in the October CPU. In particular it details the bugs that Alex found with links to seperate advisory pages. These include:
