Hello:
Our developers have requested flashback any table to be given to apps (in an ebusiness environment). They would not have the apps password in production. I think they are using it to build some feature in a custom app.
Regardless of their motivation, I think this is a security risk because why would a developer want this privilege in a production environment.

I cant think like a hacker but it does not sound right to me. Want to confirm with the list if I am missing something ?

Thank you
Kumar
