Who is Vulnerable?
Vulnerability Description Oracle Database Server is an enterprise-level relational database application suite. To extend the functionality of the Oracle Database Server, extra packages of related program objects, i.e., procedures, functions, variables, constants, cursors, and exceptions, are provided in order to better manage the data. The included stored procedures and functions, or subprograms, are called by name and optionally passed a set of parameters. They are essentially a set of SQL statements that are stored on the server-side, usually as precompiled SQL. There exists a SQL injection vulnerability in Oracle Database. The vulnerability is due to insufficient sanitization of the input parameter in the "SYS.LT.FINDRICSET" function. A remote authenticated attacker could exploit this vulnerability by embedding malicious SQL code as part of the vulnerable parameter. Successful exploitation would allow "PUBLIC" users to gain "SYS" level privileges. Exploitation of this vulnerability may result in privilege escalation allowing an attacker with limited privileges to execute statements with the privileges of the database system administrator. The exact behaviour of the target system is dependent on the intention of the attacker. It may be possible for an attacker to affect the target host beyond the confines of the database which would allow manipulation of the host system.
