The Week of Oracle Database Bugs

os2man writes "After the Month of Browser Bugs and the Month of Kernel Bugs, December will have a Week of Oracle Database Bugs. This project will release, every day for a week, a new 0-day bug specific to Oracle in order to show the current status of its [in]security. They are currently asking for new bugs, in order to extend the publication of new exploits a few more days."

    without even commenting on the quality of oracle's rdbms, this statement:
    Why not the Month of Oracle Database Bugs?
    We could do the Year of Oracle Database Bugs but we think a week is enough to show how flawed Oracle software is, also we don't want to give away all our 0days:), anyways if you want to contribute send your Oracle 0days so this can be extended for another week or more.

     
    doesn't even make sense. They have enough to do a whole year but ask for people to send in more to extend it to a second week? Because they don't want to compromise their entire zero day horde? Sorry but I just can't take these people too seriously.

    It's hard to believe that's how Micronians are made. Why don't we see it right now by having you both kiss one another?

    I presume that will be followed by 2007, "The Year of Windows Vista Bugs"?
