Secure Transport (COST) to Restrict Instance Registration Oracle 12c

edited Apr 11, 2016 9:02AM in Patch Reviews - DB (MOSC) 2 commentsAnswered ✓

Hi there,

I'm having a question relating to Oracle Security Alert CVE-2012-1675

I'm running Oracle Database Enterprise release 12.1.0.2.0 on Linux 6.7 (non RAC) with primary and standby.

I have read that Oracle recommends to install bug fix 12880299 and add "SECURE_REGISTER_[listener_name] = (TCP)" to the listener.ora

However it seems that this patch is quite old (2013?). I have recently installed PSU Jan 2016 but I haven't seen patch 12880299 listed.

Therefore, I'm not sure whether I need to install this patch or just add the line in the listener.ora file.

Could you please shed some light in there?

Thank you

Howdy, Stranger!
