Does any one know, how to find a user who HAS INSERT and UPDATE privilage but DOES NOT have SELECT privilage?

Try to query DBA_TAB_PRIVS.

I'm not getting the correct output from following query.

select * from dba_tab_privs where PRIVILEGE IN ('INSERT','UPDATE') union select * from dba_tab_privs where PRIVILEGE NOT IN ('SELECT')

You will need to modify the below for specific tables and/or include ANY.

select distinct grantee
from   dba_tab_privs t1
where  exists
       (select *
        from   dba_tab_privs t2
        where  t2.grantee = t1.grantee
        and    t2.privilege = 'INSERT')
and    exists
       (select *
        from   dba_tab_privs t3
        where  t3.grantee = t1.grantee
        and    t3.privilege = 'UPDATE')
and    not exists
       (select *
        from   dba_tab_privs t3
        where  t3.grantee = t1.grantee
        and    t3.privilege = 'SELECT');

Thank you for this information. How every when I run the query its just hanging.

(I want ALL users who has that access in a database, on ANY table)

depending upon DB it takes a while to run

07:11:03 SQL> set echo on term on
07:11:09 SQL> select distinct grantee
from   dba_tab_privs t1
where  exists
       (select *
        from   dba_tab_privs t2
        where  t2.grantee = t1.grantee
        and    t2.privilege = 'INSERT')
and    exists
       (select *
        from   dba_tab_privs t3
        where  t3.grantee = t1.grantee
        and    t3.privilege = 'UPDATE')
and    not exists
       (select *

You could try something like the following. If you have a lot of such privileges on your system, then it may be slow no matter what method you use. You could add a first_rows hint.

select t1.grantee
from   dba_tab_privs t1, dba_tab_privs t2
where  t1.grantee = t2.grantee
and    t1.privilege = 'INSERT'
and    t2.privilege = 'UPDATE'
MINUS
select grantee
from   dba_tab_privs 
where  privilege = 'SELECT';

Both are quick on my system, but it is a small system. The second one is faster.

  6  	     where  t2.grantee = t1.grantee
  7  	     and    t2.privilege = 'INSERT')
  8  and    exists
  9  	    (select *
 10  	     from   dba_tab_privs t3
 11  	     where  t3.grantee = t1.grantee
 12  	     and    t3.privilege = 'UPDATE')
 13  and    not exists
 14  	    (select *

I should probably point out that this is just privileges granted directly, not through roles.
