Hello List,  

April CPU 2014 for DB will be of interest for high security environments i.e. two privilege escalations I found have kindly been fixed by Oracle. http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/topics/security/cpuapr2014-1972952.html#Ap pendixDB
There are details about the fixed issues in the book just released http://www.apress.com/9781430262114 - though it is mainly about defence both in terms of using CC to reduce risk on large estates, and also how to make privileged access controls like breakglass more effective, which again will be of interest for the sec minded folks wanting to make their DB environments safer.  

Cheers,
Paul
