I want to pass a cursor to a procedure as IN parameter.You can use the PL/SQL type called sys_refcursor - and open a ref cursor and pass that to the procedure as input parameter.
Note that the SQL projection of the cursor is unknown at compilation time - and thus cannot be checked. As this checking only happens at run-time, you may get errors attempting to fetch columns from the ref cursor that does not exist in its projection.
You also need to ask yourself whether this approach is a logical and robust one - it usually is not. The typical cursor processing template in PL/SQL looks as follows:
begin
  open cursorVariable;
  loop
    fetch cursorVariable bulk collect into bufferVariable limit MAX_ROWS_FETCH;
    for i in 1..bufferVariable.Count
    loop
      MyProcedure( buffer(i) );   --// <-- Pass a row structure to your procedure and not a cursor
    end loop;
    ..etc..
    exit when cursorVariable%not_found;
  end loop;
  close cursorVariable;
end;
