Hard for me to find suitable sub-forum for this question, sorry if placed not properly.
I wonder how to understand information provided by Oracle in "Oracle Critical Patch Update Advisory - January 2018", http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/secur ... pendixOVIR.
For VB jump to section http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/secur ... pendixOVIR.
According to that document VB versions prior to 5.2.6 were vulnerable in multiple points. Does that mean all those are fixed in 5.2.6?
Update: If answer to question asked above reads YES, I believe this point should be mentioned in 5.2.6's changelog. Otherwise this version has good chance to be ignored by VB users/administrators as this happened on my side.
Any security updates in 5.2.6?

Re: Any security updates in 5.2.6
Yes, that's the point of the security advisory: Update to something later than (or equal to) 5.2.6.
