Attention: To align with new corporate security policies, and to match policies adopted by other communities within Oracle, the My Oracle Support Community access requirements will change beginning September 18, 2025. MOSC will now require that member accounts in our community be associated to a *corporate* email address. This means that users with generic domains (such as gmail.com, yahoo.com, and others) will no longer be granted access to the discussion forums and ideas labs. If this policy affects you, act now to change the email address that is associated with your Oracle (and community) account. Alternatively, you can opt to create a new Oracle account that uses your corporate email domain.

Hi,

Is there any way that we can connect to oracle by encrypted password values of user?

e.g.

select password from dba_users where username='SCOTT';

FE2E935743C1D160

Now if i don't know the password of scott user but I want to connect by SCOTT user by passing FE2E935743C1D160 to connect.

Thanks,

Amit.
