MySQL, Systems, Communications Applications, Java SE, Virtualization, Analytics, Enterprise Manager, PeopleSoft, and Retail Applications all had patches released. The patches addressed various vulnerabilities, with some being exploitable remotely without authentication.
Oracle released security patches this month for various products, including Database Server, Commerce, Construction and Engineering, Insurance Applications, Supply Chain, Support Tools, Food and Beverage Applications, HealthCare Applications, Utilities Applications, Hyperion, Hospitality Applications, Health Sciences Applications, Autonomous Health Framework, Big Data Spatial and Graph, Global Lifecycle Management, and GoldenGate.
Oracle has released patches for some applications that fix security issues, including some additional vulnerabilities and non-exploitable flaws. They have also released separate fixes for vulnerabilities that affect multiple applications.
Oracle customers are advised to apply the patches as soon as possible.
“It has been reported that attackers have been successful because targeted customers had failed to apply available Oracle patches. Oracle therefore strongly recommends that customers remain on actively-supported versions and apply Critical Patch Update security patches without delay,” Oracle said.
On Tuesday, Oracle announced new security patches for various components of their operating systems. This includes 13 patches for Solaris, 71 patches for Oracle Linux, and 3 patches for the Oracle VM Server for x86.
