Team SHATTER Security Advisory - Oracle Database Vault provides additional protections from malicious privileged users. The protections include separation of duty for some tasks like user account management. Any user with SYSDBA privilege or DV_ACCTMGR role can bypass these protections and change any user's password (including Oracle Database Vault Owner user password) calling the OCIPasswordChange client API (the 'password' command in SqlPLUS uses this API).
