The Critical Patch Update for July 2006 is now available. Oracle strongly recommends applying the patches as soon as possible.
The Critical Patch Update Advisory is the starting point for relevant information. It includes a list of products affected, pointers to obtain the patches, a summary of the security vulnerabilities, and links to other important documents.
Today’s Critical Patch Update also introduces a new and improved documentation structure for the Oracle products. This change was introduced to make it easier to access information that is relevant to specific product versions and operating systems. The advisory contains a link to more information about the new documentation structure.
It is essential to review the Critical Patch Update supporting documentation before applying patches, since this is where you can find important relevant information.
The Critical Patch Update Advisory is available on the Oracle Technology Network.
The next four Critical Patch Update release dates are:
- 17 October 2006
- 16 January 2007
- 17 April 2007
