I. Description
Several vulnerabilities have been reported in Oracle's Database
Server, Application Server, and Enterprise Manager software. According
to reports, several buffer overflow, format string, SQL injection and
other types of vulnerabilities were discovered and reported to Oracle.
Oracle has released Oracle Security Alert #68 (pdf) to address these
vulnerabilities. We are tracking them as follows:
VU#170830 - Oracle Enterprise Manager contains several
vulnerabilities
VU#316206 - Oracle Database Server contains several vulnerabilities
VU#435974 - Oracle Application Server contains several
vulnerabilities
As more information becomes available, we will update these
vulnerability notes as appropriate.
II. Impact
The impacts of the vulnerabilities described above are unclear.
According to credible reports, the impacts of these vulnerabilities
range from the remote unauthenticated execution arbitrary code to data
corruption or leakage.
III. Solution
Apply a patch or upgrade
Apply the appropriate patch or upgrade as specified in the Oracle
Security Alert #68 (pdf).
Organizations that use Oracle's Collaboration Suite or E-Business
Suite 11i should see Oracle Security Alert #68 (pdf) for remediation
instructions.
