Oracle Releases July 2021 CPU With 342 Security Patches
2021-07-21 13:33

Oracle on Tuesday announced the availability of a total of 342 new security patches as part of its July 2021 Critical Patch Update.

The most severe of these issues is CVE-2021-2244, a security bug in the Essbase Analytic Provider Services product of Oracle Essbase that could be exploited remotely without authentication and which could lead to the complete takeover of the affected product.

Other Oracle software to receive patches for a large number of vulnerabilities in the July 2021 CPU include MySQL; Communications Applications; Communications; Retail Applications; Financial Services Applications; E-Business Suite; and Database Server.

Overall Oracle urges customers to apply the available patches as soon as possible, as this would significantly reduce the threat posed by successful attacks.

The tech giant also points out that it periodically receives reports of malicious targeting of vulnerabilities for which security patches were released in the past, but which remain unpatched by customers.

"Oracle therefore strongly recommends that customers remain on actively-supported versions and apply Critical Patch Update security patches without delay," the company notes.
