Database Vault removes this privileges from the DBA role. Therefore, this privilege is needed by Streams only in an environment where Database Vault is installed.

COMMENT ANY TABLE

Comment on any table, view, or column in any schema.

EXEMPT ACCESS POLICY

Bypass fine-grained access control.

Caution: This is a very powerful system privilege, as it lets the grantee bypass application-driven security policies. Database administrators should use caution when granting this privilege.

DIRECTORY PRIVILEGES

The following directory privileges provide secured access to the files stored in the operating system directory to which the directory object serves as a pointer. The directory object contains the full path name of the operating system directory where the files reside. Because the files are actually stored outside the database, Oracle Database server processes also need to have appropriate file permissions on the file system server. Granting object privileges on the directory database object to individual database users, rather than on the operating system, allows the database to enforce security during file operations.

READ

Read files in the directory.

WRITE

Write files in the directory. This privilege is useful only in connection with external tables. It allows the grantee to determine whether the external table agent can write a log file or a bad file to the directory.

Restriction: This privilege does not allow the grantee to write to a BFILE.

ALTER

Change the mining model name or the associated cost matrix using the applicableDBMS_DATA_MINING procedures.

SELECT

Score or view the mining model. Scoring is done with the PREDICTION family of SQL functions or with the DBMS_DATA_MINING.APPLY procedure. Viewing the model is done with theDBMS_DATA_MINING.GET_MODEL_DETAILS_* procedures.

OBJECT TYPE PRIVILEGES

The following object type privileges authorize operations on a database object type.

DEBUG

Access, through a debugger, all public and nonpublic variables, methods, and types defined on the object type.

PROCEDURE, FUNCTION, PACKAGE PRIVILEGES

The following procedure, function, and package privileges authorize operations on procedures, functions, and packages. These privileges also apply to Java sources, classes, and resources, which Oracle Database treats as though they were procedures for purposes of granting object privileges.

DEBUG

Access, through a debugger, all public and nonpublic variables, methods, and types defined on the object.

Place a breakpoint or stop at a line or instruction boundary within the procedure, function, or package. This privilege grants access to the declarations in the method or package specification and body.

EXECUTE

Execute the procedure or function directly, or access any program object declared in the specification of a package, or compile the object implicitly during a call to a currently invalid or uncompiled function or procedure. This privilege does not allow the grantee to explicitly compile using ALTER PROCEDURE or ALTER FUNCTION. For explicit compilation you need the appropriateALTER system privilege.

Access, through a debugger, public variables, types, and methods defined on the procedure, function, or package. This privilege grants access to the declarations in the method or package specification only.

Job scheduler objects are created using the DBMS_SCHEDULER package. After these objects are created, you can grant the EXECUTE object privilege on job scheduler classes and programs. You can also grant ALTER privilege on job scheduler jobs, programs, and schedules.

ALTER

Change the sequence definition with the ALTER SEQUENCE statement.

SELECT

Examine and increment values of the sequence with the CURRVAL and NEXTVAL pseudocolumns.

SYNONYM PRIVILEGES

Synonym privileges are the same as the privileges for the target object. Granting a privilege on a synonym is equivalent to granting the privilege on the base object. Similarly, granting a privilege on a base object is equivalent to granting the privilege on all synonyms for the object. If you grant to a user a privilege on a synonym, then the user can use either the synonym name or the base object name in the SQL statement that exercises the privilege.

TABLE PRIVILEGES

The following table privileges authorize operations on a table. Any one of following object privileges allows the grantee to lock the table in any lock mode with the LOCK TABLE statement.

Note: For external tables, the only valid object privileges are ALTER and SELECT.

Note: You must grant the SELECT privilege on the table along with the DELETE privilege if the table is on a remote database.

INDEX

Create an index on the table with the CREATE INDEX statement.

INSERT

Add new rows to the table with the INSERT statement.

Note: You must grant the SELECT privilege on the table along with the INSERT privilege if the table is on a remote database.

REFERENCES

Create a constraint that refers to the table. You cannot grant this privilege to a role.

SELECT

Query the table with the SELECT statement.

Change data in the table with the UPDATE statement.

Note: You must grant the SELECT privilege on the table along with the UPDATE privilege if the table is on a remote database.

VIEW PRIVILEGES

The following view privileges authorize operations on a view. Any one of the following object privileges allows the grantee to lock the view in any lock mode with the LOCK TABLE statement.

To grant a privilege on a view, you must have that privilege with the GRANT OPTION on all of the base tables of the view.

DEBUG

Access, through a debugger:

• PL/SQL code in the body of any triggers defined on the view

• Information on SQL statements that reference the view directly

DELETE

Remove rows from the view with the DELETE statement.

INSERT

Add new rows to the view with the INSERT statement.

MERGE VIEW

This object privilege has the same behavior as the system privilege , except that the privilege is limited to the views specified in the ON clause. For any query issued by the grantee on the specified views, the optimizer can use view merging to improve query performance without performing the checks that would otherwise be performed to ensure that view merging does not violate any security intentions of the view creator.

REFERENCES

Define foreign key constraints on the view.

SELECT

Query the view with the SELECT statement.

See Also:  for additional information on granting this object privilege on a view

UNDER
