Security readout for executives and security teams

This is a low-severity Oracle Database issue affecting version 12.1.0.2. It requires a highly privileged attacker who can log in locally and already has powerful database rights. If abused, it could let them alter some RDBMS Security-accessible data, but the sources do not indicate confidentiality or availability impact. Exposure is mainly legacy Oracle Database 12.1.0.2 environments where users hold Create Session and Select Any Dictionary privileges and can log in to the relevant infrastructure. Treat this as a low-priority legacy Oracle hygiene item unless affected 12.1.0.2 systems remain in sensitive environments with broad privileged access. Mitigation focus: Identify any Oracle Database 12.1.0.2 instances still in use.; Review Oracle's July 2017 CPU and current vendor guidance.; Reduce Create Session and Select Any Dictionary privileges to justified accounts..
