Sure it does, just not by default. Check out the 07_DICTIONARY_ACCESSIBILITY parameter.

Enjoy!

Hi, Raj,

9i doesn't allow a user with select any table privilege to view any object owned by SYS. So the sys.link$ risk is gone. But select any dictionary, a new
privilege in 9i, allows that. In practice, I always grant select_catalog_role
to any developer, but refrain from granting select any dictionary or select any
table. As DBAs, we should encourage developers to make full use of data dictionary views and open the database to them as much as they can study it. I
would help the consultant in your case instead of just throw back a "NO" to him.
