Apex and its security model

July 11th, 2007 by Pete

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

Gary has posted a very interesting article about APEX and the use of DBMS_SYS_SQL titled "Database 11g and Apex by default". This is a good post, i wanted to make a comment on Gary's blog but to do so meant registering with blogger/Google which I dont want to do so my comment is here:

"Thanks for a very interesting post. I think there are issues with this model and recent CPUs with lots of remote exploits/bugs in Apex that dont need authentication clearly confirms this. I agree with you its crazy to enable Apex by default in 11g, lets see if they do. This would feed into the ever increasing array of features enabled by default.."
