Every quarter, Oracle issues its Critical Patch Update (CPU), which is an extensive collection of fixes intended to tackle a broad spectrum of security vulnerabilities. These updates are designed to counteract potential threats that might persist within Oracle's products, addressing issues ranging from code-related problems to vulnerabilities in third-party components. Regularly implementing these updates can significantly strengthen the security and stability of your Oracle technologies.
This quarter's update introduces 334 new security patches across various Oracle products, addressing 203 critical vulnerabilities that could potentially be exploited remotely without authentication. It is imperative that customers promptly apply these CPU fixes to enhance the security of their systems and prioritise these patches for immediate action.
Below is a list of affected products and the number of identified vulnerabilities for each. If you use any of these products, you must take the necessary action to address the potential vulnerabilities in your estate. But don’t worry. DSP is here to help. Customers frequently approach us at this time to utilise our Oracle Critical Patch Update Support Service to help stay on top of their patches.
