Hi all,

Got the info' below from www.dba-village.com and thought of sharing it with u guys.

If you try "select 'Hello' from dual order by 1 desc;" you may run into the bug. It creates a dump in udump and could disconnect your session. Oracle is creating a one-off patch to fix. The bug is for any order by x, where x is a number, desc and the column is a constant.
