Multiple buffer overflows in Oracle 9i Database release 2, Release 1, 8i, 8.1.7, and 8.0.6 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via (1) a long conversion string argument to the TO_TIMESTAMP_TZ function, (2) a long time zone argument to the TZ_OFFSET function, or (3) a long DIRECTORY parameter to the BFILENAME function.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2003-0096 covers multiple Oracle Database buffer overflows that could let a remote attacker run code on affected database servers. The affected versions named in the CVE are Oracle 9i Database Release 2, Release 1, 8i, 8.1.7, and 8.0.6. Treat exposed legacy Oracle systems as urgent to identify and remediate. Exposure is most likely in legacy Oracle Database deployments still running 9i or 8i-era releases, especially where untrusted users or applications can submit SQL invoking the affected functions. Internet or partner-network database access would raise urgency substantially. Prioritize discovery immediately if the organization may still operate Oracle 8i or 9i. Remote code execution against a database can affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability. If no affected legacy systems exist, residual risk is low after documenting that fact. Mitigation focus: Inventory Oracle Database versions and identify any 9i or 8i systems.; Review Oracle Security Alerts 48, 49, and 50 for vendor guidance.; Apply Oracle-provided fixes or upgrade unsupported legacy database versions..
