Vulnerabilities in MySQL in Oracle 11g installation

I have Oracle 11g as the database for my GUI application, there was a security analysis run on the server hosting the Oracle 11g database and it is showing security vulnerabilities with respect to MySQL such as CVE-2012-2750, CVE-2012-3163 etc. The vulnerability solution in the security report is showing solutions like:
1) Download and apply the upgrade from: http://downloads.mysql.com/archives.php
2) Download and apply the upgrade from: http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql
My query is that any patches or fixes for the security bugs need to be coming from Oracle or should they be applied as stand-alone MySQL fixes.
I hope my query is clear.
Please revert with the reply to my query.
Regards

Oracle (the product) is not MySQL (the product).
Oracle (the product) does not know or care about MySQL issues.
Is MySQL installed on this server? Is it being used? Depending on your un-named OS, MySQL very will could have been installed simply as part of the OS installation, really just a form of 'bloat-ware'.

ChangePerm.sh file does not exist in Oracle 11g installation

Hi All,
I have done successful Oracle 11g installation. After installation I noticed that Oracle 11g/installation does not have changePerm.sh file. Did anyone of you seen that?
Without executing changeperm.sh file, the binary files have 751 permission level. ChangePerm.sh script make change in file permission to 755.
Oracle support is not answering me why there was no changePerm.sh file under Oracle_home/install directory.
Thoughts/suggestions..
Thank you
Suresh

I'm not finding this to be the case reliably. I have both a 10G and an 11G install on one particular machine and the 11G installer initially creates the directories with a 755 permission, then right before the prompt to run root.sh, and at the same time it locks down any 10G home it finds (someone please explain that!) it locks down the 11G home too.
In true Murphy tradition, this hasn't happened on any of my testing machines, just my production.
Whatever silly contrived mechanism Oracle wrote to re-lock 10G when installing 11G is also locking down my 11G.

Hi,
You can download the 11.1.0.7 patchset from My Oracle Support -
support.oracle.com
as patch 6890831.
Once logged in click on 'Patches and Updates' and enter the patch number as 6890831 and choose whichever platform you are running.
the readme explains how to apply the patch to an existing 11.1.0.6 install.
The url you posted is only for complete product installs, but 11.1.0.7 is only a patchset that must be applied to an existing install.

Mike

ORACLE 11G INSTALLATION PROBLEM ON WIN7 32 bit

okay i intalled the 11g edition but quite unsuccesfully . This is the view of start menu entry
start->allprograms->oracle 11g express edition->empty
Well, it shouldn't be like this !
Can't figure out why ?

Edited by: 908289 on Jan 16, 2012 7:59 AM

i have the folder named oracleexe and app folder inside it . so this is what i should get as installed folders i guess !!Yes, that's what you can expect after a successful installation. Take a look in the direct ".\oracle\product\11.2.0\server" below the "app" directory. Do you see some url-link files there? (Despite several other subdirectories, of course...)
Two of them should be the "Database_homepage" and "Get_Started". Try to call them.
And Oracle XE service is started . Well, that's great. Sounds like all you lack is the links in you task menu.
i couldn't quite get you here . which software/ programs are you referring to ? The start menu entry created is shown already as it is in the problem above and installation folders are there as i mentioned above . what else ,you refferring to ?I just wanted to check whether the installer has registered the database in the Windows list. This is part of a successful installation and would offer you the opporunity to uninstall (and perhaps reinstall) the whole package.
Also , i am not sure which lOG file to check there because there are a lot of them !!As your database seems to be running as noted above, it doesn't seem to be necessary to go into these details.
You should be able to access your database, either by using the links mentioned above, or, if these failed to be created, by calling the URLs by hand, e.g.
http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex/f?p=4950 for "Get_Started" and
http://127.0.0.1:8080/htmldb for the "Database_homepage".
You should also be able to use the command line tool by calling sqlplus from a command window.
If that doesn't satisfy you or you face any errors, you could try to reinstall.

Oracle 11g Installation How to select Database Character Set

Hi,
I am Installing oracle 11g R2. After installation I had verified the character set it was AL16UTF16 but I wants to set AL32UTF8 charater set at the time of oracle installation only. I can't see the character set setting opetion at the time of installation because I am selecting the installation option " Install database softerware only" and after installation of oracle software manually I am creating the database. Please help me how can I set the character set at the time of oracle installation or at the time of database creation.
My question is-
How can I set the AL32UTF8 character set in above scenario?
Why It is showing AL16UTF16 character set even I did not define any thing?

But is there any choice to set the NLS_CHARACTERSET at the time of manually database creation. Actually For creating the database i am using one shell script for seting the parameter values in init.ora file so can I set the parameter at that level(at the time of creating init.ora using manually database creation). like

Oracle 11g installation on Linux Enterprise 5 remains hanging at 43%!

Hi all,
as per Subject, I have installed a Linux Enterprise 5 OS downloaded by Oracle Download Center and it is now installed following the nice Guide here.
I have added the missing Linux packages and set up the kernel parameters as per Guide quoted above.
If I launch the Oracle installation, it completes the packages and parameters check fine, install goes fine until 43% and then hangs.
It's not freezing as the Installation window shows ongoing animations, if I try to stop installation it responds immediately asking for confirmation.
It just hangs up!
The Linux machine is actually on a VMWare image on a MacOS Leopard host.
I have tried it on my laptop and desktop as well, but the hang point keeps being the same.
Any idea?
Thanks in advance.

I will copy more that last 10 lines as last 10 lines do not look too descriptive to me.

Oracle 11g installation Kernel version error

Hi
We are inprocess of installing oracle 11g on solaris 5.10. Our current Solaris 10 is with kernel version (5.10-2008.03.24.13.19). . It requires kernel version (5.10-2008.10). What patch need to be installed for us to achieve this. Please advice.
The following are the operating system requirements for Oracle Database 11g Release 2 (11.2):
* Solaris 10 U6 (5.10-2008.10)
When I check with my OS team they says the currently have kernel patch ID 142909-17, which already Solaris 10 U9.Thus this Domain already fulfill the requirement

You could post to the Installation forum : Database Installation
But you should also log an SR with Oracle Support.

Oracle 11g installation on Oracle Enterprise Linux, 64bit version.

Hi
I want to install oracle 11g on Oracle Enterprise Linux, 64bit version.
Do I need to set kernel parameters in this operating system, since it is not standart Linux editions.
or
Can I have a step by step documentation for installing oracle 11g on this operating system?

Hello,
Yes you do need to set kernal parameters in order to meet pre-requisites, otherwise your installation will fail and oracle might not work or unstable.

Hello;
I used several versions on Linux but not that one.
That said the error :
libXext.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directoryResolution : Install the libXp package
So you are missing at least one of the "extra" packages needed for an Oracle install.
I found some posts that make me believe Cent 6 isn't quite ready for Oracle 11 :

MYSQL to Oracle 11G R2

Hello
I am trying to import a MySQL dump file to a Oracle 11G R2 database. Has anyone done this before? I have sqldeveloper installed but, am not sure if I can use that tool to import a .sql MySQL file. Anyone know of a good reference guide..or even better has anyone done this before?
Brian Sims

I am still stuck, so I think I can use the offline method in SQL Developer but I am not sure how to create the migration repository? Any ideas. I check in the documentation link but it does not give a good explanation of what to do for offline migrations. Do you or anyone know of a document that goes into that more deeply?
The guy that gave me this data dump was doing me a favor I would rather not ask him to export it a different way if I did not absolutely have to.
Any help would be appreciated, Thanks
