Security readout for executives and security teams
Oracle 10g Database Server may expose the SYSMAN account password in cleartext inside a world-readable configuration file. A local user who can read that file could potentially obtain database administrator privileges. This is mainly a risk for legacy Oracle 10g environments and hosts with untrusted or shared local access. Exposure is most likely on legacy Oracle 10g Database Server installations where emoms.properties exists, is world-readable, and local operating-system users can access the database server host. Treat as high priority where Oracle 10g remains in production or on shared servers. The issue can turn ordinary local access into database administrator control, but urgency is lower for systems without local user exposure or where the product has been retired. Mitigation focus: Check Oracle Security Alert 68 and vendor guidance for supported remediation details.; Restrict emoms.properties permissions to required Oracle service accounts only.; Rotate the SYSMAN password if the file was readable by local users..
