Oracle Delivers April Security Update

Oracle released its April Critical Patch Update (CPU) this week, addressing 73 different vulnerabilities spread across Oracle’s product portfolio.

Oracle’s namesake database gets six updates as part of the CPU. Only two of the updates are identified as flaws that could be remotely exploitable without authentication.
