More Quotes from David Litchfield:
The whole point of a regular patch cycle is that people can plan ahead and install once. But if you are having to install it nine times, where's the benefit of that.David Litchfield
Oracle still has not released an official patch, so it is still leaving its customers at risk. It is a trivial thing to fix. If the company is still working on it, I do not understand why.

Someone can come in off the Internet over the Web without a user ID or password and interact with the back-end database server, so it goes through all the firewalls. This is critical.

We disclosed this to Oracle on Oct. 25 last year. Around the same time, they were alerted to another high-risk flaw that is not as serious as this one. They fixed that one in the January CPU but neglected to fix this. It's not a case of not having enough time, because the fix is trivial and the risks are severe.
