CVE-2002-0567
Oracle 8i and 9i with PL/SQL package for External Procedures (EXTPROC) allows remote attackers to bypass authentication and execute arbitrary functions by using the TNS Listener to directly connect to the EXTPROC process.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (8.74%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
