Client's access to Oracle's passwords

Here is a question -

Client application connects to Oracle database via a SQL*Net call.
Can the user-ID and password passed on to the database by the client by captured by any of utilities?

I have heard that turning SQL tracing on would capture the password? Is that true - if so, what parameter in which needs to be modified to prevent the capture?

All help will be most appreciated.
