Oracle still has nothing to say about whether the vulnerabilities of Meltdown or Specter are a problem for their hardware.
Big Red today offered The Register another "no comment", which makes it a notable absentee from Intel's list of x86 vendor advisories on how to handle twin problems.
Oracle, of course, also operates an x86 cloud, the users of whom The Register imagines would be willing to hear of any impending disruption or degradation of service.
Big Red also had nothing to say about whether Specter and Meltdown apply to their SPARC hardware. We also asked Fujitsu about his SPARC situation and the company told The Reg "We are in the process of checking the status, the details of the updates will continue to be published by Fujitsu as they become available."
But Oracle's usual verbosity in software patches may have revealed the company's x86 solution: the company's preview of its quarterly patch download on Tuesday, January 16 includes "Oracle X86 Servers, SW versions 1.x, SW 2.x "among the 97 products to be patched
Sun ZFS Storage Appliance operators have been urged to prepare for a 10.0 severity correction, while Oracle's Fusion Middleware, PeopleSoft, Oracle Retail, Virtualization, Communications Applications and Supply Chain Suite users have 9.8 point failures to fight .
Most of the patches are for applications *, but also Solaris 10 and 11.3 made the list, as well as Java Advanced Management Console and Java ME SDK.
It includes the Oracle's Cruise Dining Room Management application, the Cruise Fleet Management application and the Cruise Shipboard Property Management System.
