Oracle releases out-of-band patch for server hole
Business software maker has taken unusual step of releasing an out-of-band patch for a critical WebLogic Server vulnerability.
Oracle has released a patch for a server flaw that can be exploited over a network without the use of a username or password.
The patch addresses a vulnerability in the Node Manager component of Oracle WebLogic Server, and affects the latest versions of the software, Oracle said in an advisory on Thursday.
It is highly unusual for Oracle to release an out-of-band patch for a critical flaw, as the company usually prefers to release critical patch updates every three months.
