EBS Critical Patch Update Checker (ECPUC) has been updated with the May 2026 Critical Security Patch Update (CSPU). We strongly recommend that you run the latest ECPUC against your EBS environment to:

  •     Identify your environment’s current EBS CSPU/CPU patch level.
  •     Identify required EBS CSPU/CPU patches and security fixes for your environment.

Obtaining ECPUC

ECPUC is available with Patch 35583866.  Instructions for running ECPUC are documented in the README.txt file included with the patch.  

ECPUC May 2026

Patch 35583866 provides a script, ECPUC.sql. When run, ECPUC.sql generates the ECPUC.lst report which includes your current EBS CSPU/CPU level and a list of all required EBS CSPU/CPU patches and security fixes for your environment for a given monthly CSPU or quarterly CPU.

Usage Tips

Read the README carefully.  The README for this patch includes a number of usage scenarios and examples.

Always use the latest version of ECPUC. New EBS CSPU/CPU patches and fixes will not be checked by older versions of the utility.

As part of your monthly security patching activity:

  • Run ECPUC before applying EBS CPU patches and fixes. You should run ECPUC before applying the latest EBS CPU patches to identify the patches and bug fixes that are required for your environment.
  • Apply all recommended patches as soon as possible. If ECPUC reports recommended patches or fixes, you should apply these to your environment as soon as possible.
  • Run ECPUC after applying EBS CPU patches and fixes. You should run ECPUC after applying patches and performing cutover to confirm that all recommended patches and fixes were applied successfully.

Run ECPUC to review and report on your EBS CSPU/CPU level. You may be required to review and report on the EBS CSPU/CPU level of your environment. To check the EBS CSPU/CPU level in your environment, run ECPUC and review the ECPUC.lst report to determine your EBS CSPU/CPU level and identify any recommended patches.

Note:  You should always apply patches and fixes to non-production envrionments prior to promoting and applying to production.
