The enterprise software company has said it will release patches on a quarterly basis - to help simplify security updates for users - and is relying on third parties to alert it to security holes.
Many of the bugs plugged in the latest security update were brought to Oracle’s attention by security companies Red Database Security, Integrity and NGSS.
Oracle has not released full details of the holes and how they can be exploited, but more information is expected to be made public once firms have had a chance to download the patch from Oracle’s website.
