Re: Security hole in Oracle?

There's really several different potential categories "problems with oracle" can fall into.

1. You can present a reproducible test case that other people ( including oracle ) can re-create demonstrating an error. Oracle eventually develops a solution and fixes that can either be applied to your current environment or give relief in some future version.
2. You experience intermittent wierd things that you suspect are oracle potential problems but you cannot produce a test case or get others to reproduce the problem.
3. In the case of investigating wierd things you discover some flaws in how an application was designed, programmed, or that dependencies of the process used to create software have deficiencies that you can ultimately fix yourself.
4. You decide you can live with the problem.

Of course some of these overlap with the others. ( 2 and 4 for example ).

Many of us here would like to help but we don't really have enough information to see which of the above categories you may be falling into. Received on Tue Feb 07 2006 - 13:59:48 CST
