Re: Team SHATTER Security Advisory: Oracle Database Buffer Overflow in SYS.OLAPIMPL_T.ODCITABLESTART

: Oracle Database Buffer Overflow in SYS.OLAPIMPL_T.ODCITABLESTART
: Risk Level: High

: Oracle Database Server provides the SYS.OLAPIMPL_T package. This package 
: contains the procedure ODCITABLESTART which is vulnerable to buffer 
: overflow attacks. Impact: By default SYS.OLAPIMPL_T has EXECUTE 
: permission to PUBLIC so any Oracle database user can exploit this 
: vulnerability. Exploitation of this vulnerability allows an attacker to 
: execute arbitrary code. It can also be exploited to cause DoS (Denial of 
: service) killing the Oracle server process.

: CVE: CVE-2008-3974

Oracle:

Confidentiality: None
Integrity: None
Availability: Partial
CVSS: 4.0

That doesn't seem to go with a remote overflow / code execution 
vulnerability.
