Hey all,
I see that the much-touted Super Secret Security patch #68 is out. The description is extremely vague -- too vague for me to assess our liability. Anyone know of where I can find out technical details about this? I understand that Oracle does not want to publish the exact methods of breaking the Unbreakable, but there's a big difference between an internal Joe Nonothing end-user that wants to workaround having MS Access taken away from them and an external black hat hacker who can craft some C++ code to exploit the hole(s).

Anyone?

Rich
