Details
Oracle Reports is Oracle's award-winning, high-fidelity enterprise reporting tool. It enables businesses to give immediate access to information to all levels within and outside of the organization in an unrivaled scalable and secure environment. Oracle Reports, a component of the Oracle Application Server, is used by Oracle itself for the E-Business Suite. Many large customers are using Oracle Reports as reporting tool for their enterprise applications.

The Oracle Reports parameter customize can read any file by using an absolute or relative file name.
Parts of the file content are displayed in the Reports error message (see test case).

Affected systems
Tested with Oracle Reports 9.0.2 + patchset 2. Not tested with newer version. I never got an email / credits that Oracle fixed these issues in later versions.

Patch Information
This bug is NOT FIXED with Critical Patch Update July 2005 (CPU July 2005). It seems that Oracle is NOT INTERESTED to fix this issue and provide patches for this issue.
If you think you need a patch to protect your Oracle Application Server you should contact Oracle.
