Good morning:

You can use this scripts/tools for Oracle pen-testing:

http://www.petefinnigan.com/sql.htm and
http://www.petefinnigan.com/orasec.htm<- Miscellaneous scripts for Oracle
http://www.appsecinc.com/products/appdetective/ <- Appdetective tool for
vulnerability assessment in databases

I used Database Scanner (ISS) but this product has been discontinued (I
believe that it was replaced by Internet Scanner).

Finally, look in http://www.orafaq.com/ and
http://otn.oracle.com/deploy/security/oracle9i/pdf/9i_checklist.pdf

Good day,

I should preface this message by saying that I have little to no
experience with Oracle administration, and I'm looking to gain a bit
of information.

When performing some network scans, I notice that the Oracle database
rarely has a password set for the tnslsnr account. From the Nessus
scan results, I have learned that the database may be compromised
because of this null password. I've searched the web, and the majority
of the information I find talks about a DoS attack for Oracle 8.

My question becomes: Has anyone exploited this misconfiguration, and
if so - how? Is this an account that you can connect to without
expensive Oracle software?

Also, what other tools do you utilize to audit Oracle?

Thank you,

Joe
