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.

NVD · unedited
Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in Oracle Database 8.1.7.4, 9.0.1.5, 9.2.0.7, 10.1.0.5, and 10.2.0.2 have unknown impact and attack vectors, aka Oracle Vuln# (1) DB06 in Export; (2) DB08, (3) DB09, (4) DB10, (5) DB11, (6) DB12, (7) DB13, (8) DB14, and (9) DBC01 for OCI; (10) DB16 for Query Rewrite/Summary Mgmt; (11) DB17, (12) DB18, (13) DB19, (14) DBC02, (15) DBC03, and (16) DBC04 for RPC; and (17) DB20 for Semantic Analysis. NOTE: as of 20060719, Oracle has not disputed third party claims that DB06 is related to "SQL injection" using DBMS_EXPORT_EXTENSION with a modified ODCIIndexGetMetadata routine and a call to GET_DOMAIN_INDEX_METADATA, in which case DB06 might be CVE-2006-2081.

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.

Patch available Apply the vendor patch
Recommended fix High confidence

Upgrade to a supported Oracle Database version (11g R2 or later, or 12c/19c for longer support)

  1. Apply Oracle Critical Patch Update July 2006 (CPU July 2006) which addresses these vulnerabilities
  2. Download the patch from Oracle Metalink/My Oracle Support using the patch ID for your specific Oracle version
  3. Back up the database before applying any patches
  4. Shutdown Oracle Database services
  5. Apply the patch following Oracle documentation
  6. Restart Oracle Database services
  7. Verify the patch was applied successfully by checking DBA registry or V$PWFILE_User
Caveat Legacy patches may have compatibility issues; thoroughly test in non-production environment before production deployment; some older applications may require adjustments for newer Oracle versions
