CPU (CRITICAL PATCH UPDATE) AND PATCHSET
when a new bug is fixed in 9.2.0.4, will the bug be addressed in next patch set (9.2.0.5) as well as in the new cpu (CRITICAL PATCH UPDATE) which is going to be released shortly.
kumaresh...first, there is no cpu for 9204, and also no cpu for 9205 (except for some antique platforms).
second, a cpu does not fix bugs like patchset does. only critical and security related bugs are fixed, so if you have a non-security related bug, you will need a patchset not a cpu.
finally, yes, the patchsets are cumulative. 9205 includes all 9204 fixes
The CPUs are cumulatives too, the fixes for Jan2006 are included in Apr2007. But CPUAPR2007/9205 does not contain the 9206,9207,9208 bug fixes
and the cpu april is already released for most platforms

Critical Patch Updates ("CPU") - practical experience?
I'm trying to gauge whether users in this forum have any practical war stories from applying Oracle Critical Patch Updates. Particularly as it relates to Identity Management and/or Fusion Middleware products.
In my experience, simply navigating to find the correct patch binaries is a half-day event. Not to mention ensuring you meet all necessary pre-requisites and that those pre-requisites are in-sync with the Certification Matrices.
Anyone had an issue after applying patches? Had to rollback?
I realize this is somewhat open-ended, but looking to get some advice before proceeding.Hi Jim;
I belive you should use Critical Patch Updates and Security Alerts and check those patch avaliable by using Opatch utulity and from ad_bugs table

Critical Patch Updates - already applied
Does anyone know how to get a list of Critical Patch Updates already applied on a system.
I am aware that from 11.5.10.2 with ATG 6 onwards all CPU's are cumulative. However I also believe that there is no current way to get a list of CPU's applied - Oracle have not yet created a script for this purpose. I believe the only way is to look at each CPU document and try to crossmatch the patch number to ad_bugs.
Does anyone have a better method than this or a script already created ?

Not receiving Critical Patch Update E-mail Notification Alerts - used to
I am no longer receiving the Security Alert Email Notifications for the Oracle Critical Patch Updates. Also, the instructions on the OTN web page are no longer valid (no longer a Opt-In category). I have the box checked to receive the emails, but for some reason they are no longer being sent. I have checked my "Junk and SPAM" mail folders - not there and they are not being filtered by our company email program. I have a non-technical SR opened with support, but they are not understanding the issue.
On the

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/topics/security/securityemail-090378.html
This is the URL that we go to to setup or subscribe to Critical Patch Update Alert emails

When going to my account, there is no longer the the Opt-in to Oracle Communications section
I have
Subscription Center (Under Subscription Center is)

This box is checked and has been for a very long time, but stopped getting the emails. I am not the only DBA who is having this issue where I work - several others have the same problem and it looks like there are more DBA's in the Oracle Community who have same problem
Thanks for any assistance.Also see this related thread - Please help me to get my quarterly CPU alert notification send to me

Critical Patch Update Advisory - June 2011

ALERT - Support for Java Critical Patch Update
ALERT - Support for Java Critical Patch Update
On October 15th, Java released a critical patch update (CPU) which will require download and upgrade to the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) release – 1.7.0_45. If upgrading the JRE to this release, the P6 module (also known as Web Access) of the P6 EPPM product line and the Contract Management product, which utilize LiveConnect applets in the browser, will start generating one or more prompts. To remediate these prompts for the P6 EPPM Web Access module and the Contract Management product, Oracle Primavera will be releasing fixpacks. Until fixpacks become available, you can use the following workaround to suppress these prompts: Select the 'Allow' Prompt or 'Yes' prompt for successful loading of applets. Note: This prompt will occur for each applet.
For more information, please refer to the following KM Documents in My Oracle Support.
For P6 (Web Access), refer to KM Document ID 1591925.1
For Contract Management, refer to KM Document ID 1592535.1I found the answer to my own question. For any newbies out there, if you create an account with Oracle, that is not enough to download patches. You have to have an Oracle Customer Support Identifier associated with your account. Once you have a CSI that you obtain through your employer who has paid for support or through some other means, you then can go into My Oracle Support and enter a request to be added to the given CSI. That request goes into a pending state until the administrator of the CSI grants you privileges to download patches. (NOTE: You might have to bug someone within your organization to get this to happen.) For me, once I was given the privilege, the link worked as it should.

Determine which security patch or Critical patch update has been applied
Hi,
Anyone know how to determine which security patch or Critical patch update has been applied to the database? For Unix and also Win 2000k database server..
Thank YouUse the lsinventory command of opatch (Oracle's patch
installation tool) to list the patches installed.
If you have Perl and opatch installed, this is simply
a matter of typing:
opatch lsinventory
from the command line.
For further information on opatch, see metalink note
293369.1
Hope this helps.

Leopard 10.5.4 update and security patches
I am new to macs and I have a question regarding OS updates and security patches. I installed the 10.5.4 update. Do I need to install the 2008-004 security update?
Thanks.Welcome to Apple Discussions and welcome to Mac
The easiest way to find out exactly what your Mac needs is to go to your Apple menu and choose Software Update.
EDIT: It should include it but I had to check because I used the Combo Update.

Where do we find the patch for Express user downloads? The Oracle Critical Patch Update site requires a valid support license.
XE is not patch-able - there is no support available.

Critical Patch Updates link?
Before Oracle decided to hang OTN off of the Oracle main web-site, there used to be a Critical Patch Updates link on the main OTN page. Anyone know where that has gone to now and how to navigate to it?

Ph: 513 979 9234There are no CPUs for XE edition and the downloadable version is not patched either.
If security is an issue, you'll need to pay up for Standard Edition.
If it was the Windows-only issue from that CPU that is your concern, the other option is to go to XE on Linux.
