MITIGATION

        Oracle states:
        
        "Due to the threat posed by a successful attack, Oracle 
        strongly recommends that customers apply CPU fixes as soon as 
        possible. Until you apply the CPU fixes, it may be possible to 
        reduce the risk of successful attack by blocking network protocols 
        required by an attack. For attacks that require certain privileges 
        or access to certain packages, removing the privileges or the 
        ability to access the packages from users that do not need the 
        privileges may help reduce the risk of successful attack. Both 
        approaches may break application functionality, so Oracle strongly 
        recommends that customers test changes on non-production systems. 
        Neither approach should be considered a long-term solution as 
        neither corrects the underlying problem." [1]
