Solution

 Oracle has released a patch (Jan 2006) to address this vulnerability, but subsequent testing has revealed it does not fully mitigate the issue. It is possible to correct the flaw by implementing the following workaround: Edit the wdbsvr.app file and change the 'always_describe' option to 'yes'. Edit the dads.conf file and change the 'PlsqlAlwaysDescribeProcedure' to 'on'.
