Oracle 10g Database Server stores the password for the SYSMAN account in cleartext in the world-readable emoms.properties file, which could allow local users to gain DBA privileges.

ISQL*Plus in Oracle 10g Application Server allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary files via an absolute pathname in the file parameter to the load.uix script.

Directory traversal vulnerability in extproc in Oracle 9i and 10g allows remote attackers to access arbitrary libraries outside of the $ORACLE_HOME\bin directory.

Extproc in Oracle 9i and 10g does not require authentication to load a library or execute a function, which allows local users to execute arbitrary commands as the Oracle user.

Multiple SQL injection vulnerabilities in PL/SQL procedures that run with definer rights in Oracle 9i and 10g allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands and gain privileges via (1) DBMS_EXPORT_EXTENSION, (2) WK_ACL.GET_ACL, (3) WK_ACL.STORE_ACL, (4) WK_ADM.COMPLETE_ACL_SNAPSHOT, (5) WK_ACL.DELETE_ACLS_WITH_STATEMENT, or (6) DRILOAD.VALIDATE_STMT.

The (1) dbsnmp and (2) nmo programs in Oracle 8i, Oracle 9i, and Oracle IAS 9.0.2.0.1, on Unix systems, use a default path to find and execute library files while operating at raised privileges, which allows certain Oracle user accounts to gain root privileges via a modified libclntsh.so.9.0.

Stack-based buffer overflow in the PL/SQL EXTPROC functionality for Oracle9i Database Release 2 and 1, and Oracle 8i, allows authenticated database users, and arbitrary database users in some cases, to execute arbitrary code via a long library name.
