Three of the database bugs appear to be particularly serious, with Oracle warning that they could be remotely exploitable over a network, without requiring a user name or password on the database. The next most-patched product is Oracle’s E-Business suite, which will have 11 fixes. Two of these could be remotely exploitable.Also planned for next week’s Critical Patch Update: bug fixes for Oracle Application Server, Oracle Collaboration Suite and Oracle Enterprise Manager. The company is also planning to release four patches for its JD Edwards and PeopleSoft products.
