Unspecified vulnerability in Oracle Database Server 8.1.7.4, 9.0.1.5, 9.0.1.5 FIPS, 9.2.0.7, and 10.1.0.5, Application Server 1.0.2.2, 9.0.4.2, and 10.1.2.0.2, and Collaboration Suite Release 2, version 9.0.4.2 (Oracle9i) has unspecified impact and attack vectors, as identified by Oracle Vuln# DBC01 in the Protocol Support component.

Technical summary

dbcve analysis · low confidence

Unspecified vulnerability (Oracle Vuln# DBC01) in the Protocol Support component of Oracle Database Server (versions 8.1.7.4 through 10.1.0.5), Application Server, and Collaboration Suite. The exact nature of the vulnerability and its impact are not disclosed in the advisory.

MitigationApply Oracle Critical Patch Updates (CPUs) for the relevant release periods; for end-of-life versions (8i, 9i, 10g), migrate to supported Oracle versions or implement compensating controls such as network segmentation and strict access controls on Oracle ports.

Am I affected?

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

Identify Oracle Database version

Connect to the database using SQL*Plus and run: SELECT VERSION FROM V$INSTANCE; or check the binary version using lsnrctl version

Affected if The version matches 8.1.7.4, 9.0.1.5, 9.2.0.7, or 10.1.0.5
Identify Oracle Application Server version

Check the Oracle Application Server installation using opmnctl status -l or examine the ORACLE_HOME/Apache/conf/httpd.conf version markers, or check the installation log files

Affected if The version matches 1.0.2.2, 9.0.4.2, or 10.1.2.0.2
Identify Oracle Collaboration Suite version

Examine the Oracle Collaboration Suite installation directory or run: select version from orainstance system table, or check the central inventory

Affected if The version matches 9.0.4.2
Confirm Oracle Net Services (Protocol Support) is enabled

Check if the Oracle Listener (lsnrctl) is running and configured: lsnrctl status. Also check for enabled network protocols in listener.ora

Affected if The Oracle Listener is running and accepting network connections on default Oracle ports (1521/1526) or custom ports
Verify network exposure of Oracle services

Review firewall rules and check which network interfaces Oracle listeners are bound to using: lsnrctl status listener_name and netstat -an | grep LISTEN | grep 1521

Affected if Oracle listener is exposed to untrusted networks rather than localhost or segmented trusted networks only

You are affected if any Oracle product (Database Server, Application Server, or Collaboration Suite) matching one of the specific affected versions is installed with Oracle Net/Protocol Support enabled and accessible on the network.

Generated from the published advisory. Verify against your own configuration.

Remediation

dbcve · scoped

Mitigation available No clean upgrade yet — mitigate in the meantime

Mitigation

Apply Oracle Critical Patch Updates (CPUs) for the relevant release periods; for end-of-life versions (8i, 9i, 10g), migrate to supported Oracle versions or implement compensating controls such as network segmentation and strict access controls on Oracle ports.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence

Upgrade to Oracle 11g or higher (currently Oracle 19c/21c recommended)

Identify which Oracle component is affected in your environment (Database Server, Application Server, or Collaboration Suite)
Determine the current patch level of the affected Oracle installation
For Database Server: Upgrade to a currently supported Oracle release (Oracle 11g, 12c, or 19c/21c)
For Application Server: Migrate to Oracle WebLogic Server or Oracle Fusion Middleware
For Collaboration Suite: Decompose and migrate to modern Oracle collaboration tools
Apply the latest Oracle Critical Patch Update (CPU) for the new release after migration
Test applications for compatibility with the new Oracle version before production deployment

Caveat Legacy Oracle 8i/9i/10g applications may require code modifications for compatibility with newer Oracle versions; Oracle 8i/9i are long-unsupported and may have significant architectural differences

Generated from the published advisory — verify against the referenced sources before acting.

Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

Affected products & versions What the vendor confirmedThe version ranges the vendor confirmed as vulnerable. If your version sits inside a range here, treat yourself as exposed until you have upgraded.

CVSS breakdown How the score is builtThe industry scoring standard. It rates how the flaw is reached, what it takes to exploit, and what an attacker gains — the score is derived from those, not the other way round.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
