Detailsinfo

A vulnerability classified as critical has been found in Oracle Database Server 8.1.7.4/9.0.1.5/9.2.0.7/10.1.0.5/10.2.0.1 (Database Software). This affects the function browse_words of the file ctxsys.ctx_doc. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a sql injection vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-89. The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in Oracle Database server 8.1.7.4, 9.0.1.5, 9.2.0.7, 10.1.0.5, and 10.2.0.1 have unspecified impact and attack vectors, as identified by Oracle Vuln# (1) DB17 in the Oracle Text component and (2) DB18 in the Program Interface Network component. NOTE: details are unavailable from Oracle, but they have not publicly disputed a claim by a reliable independent researcher that states that DB17 involves SQL injection in the (a) VALIDATE_STATEMENT and BUILD_DML functions in CTXSYS.DRILOAD; (b) CLEAN_DML function in CTXSYS.DRIDML; (c) GET_ROWID function in CTXSYS.CTX_DOC; (d) BROWSE_WORDS function in CTXSYS.CTX_QUERY; and (e) ODCIINDEXTRUNCATE, ODCIINDEXDROP, and ODCIINDEXDELETE functions in CATINDEXMETHODS.

The weakness was shared 01/17/2006 by Martin with Red-Database-Security as confirmed advisory (CERT.org). It is possible to read the advisory at kb.cert.org. This vulnerability is uniquely identified as CVE-2006-0265 since 01/18/2006. The exploitability is told to be easy. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. No form of authentication is needed for exploitation. Technical details and a public exploit are known. The attack technique deployed by this issue is T1505 according to MITRE ATT&CK.

It is declared as proof-of-concept. We expect the 0-day to have been worth approximately $5k-$25k. The real existence of this vulnerability is still doubted at the moment. The vulnerability scanner Nessus provides a plugin with the ID 56051 (Oracle Database Multiple Vulnerabilities (January 2006 CPU)), which helps to determine the existence of the flaw in a target environment. It is assigned to the family Databases. The commercial vulnerability scanner Qualys is able to test this issue with plugin 19197 (Oracle January Security Update Multiple Vulnerabilities (January 2006)).

Applying a patch is able to eliminate this problem.

The vulnerability is also documented in the databases at X-Force (24321), Tenable (56051), SecurityFocus (BID 16287†), OSVDB (22555†) and Secunia (SA18493†).
