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 10.1.0.5 have unknown impact and attack vectors, aka Oracle Vuln# (1) DB21 for Statistics and (2) DB22 for Upgrade & Downgrade. NOTE: as of 20060719, Oracle has not disputed a claim by a reliable researcher that DB21 is for a local SQL injection vulnerability in SYS.DBMS_STATS, and that DB22 is for SQL injection in SYS.DBMS_UPGRADE.

Recommended fix High confidence

Oracle Database 10.1.0.5 to 10.2.0.x or higher, or migrate to Oracle 19c/21c/23c

  1. 1. Download and apply Oracle Critical Patch Update July 2006 from Oracle Support (Patch 6141419 or subsequent bundle)
  2. 2. After patching, verify the fix by checking Oracle alert log for related fixes
  3. 3. Alternatively, plan migration to a supported Oracle Database version (11g, 12c, 19c, or newer)
Caveat Oracle 10.1.0.5 is extremely outdated (2005); upgrade may require application compatibility testing and migration of data
