How to complete the following task using a Recursive WITH SQL statement?
For each user who is granted the “CREATE SESSION" (directly, granted roles with the
permission, or granted role(s) which is assigned roles with permission, and so on), display the
USERNAME and the ACCOUNT_STATUS of that user. The output should be sorted by
username.

Our DBA team created a role (standardRole) to easily managed the minimum system privileges in our organization, this role is having one system privilege currently which is the 'Create Session' privilege.
I created a user and grant him this role (standardRole), the user try to connect using Toad but he failed and this error message appeared - ORA-01045: user user1 lacks CREATE SESSION privilege; logon denied.
Then, I granted him the 'Create Session' Privilege directly this time in addition to the role that he is having already and he successfully connected to the database.
So, I am a little confused, why the 'Create Session' granted through the role in not working, but if its granted directly its working fine??!!
I tried to search about this topic in google, and I found some interesting information in Oracle Help Center, but to be honest I didn't understand it 100%.
We must to specify the role when granted to be Default, if the role is default the database will set the role automatically when the user create his session.
The user can also make the role enabled by using this command:
set role (role name)
You need to make the role as default.
To do this, run
ALTER USER DEFAULT ROLE CONNECT;
If there are several roles, then you need to execute
ALTER USER DEFAULT ROLE ALL;
These two privileges don't get granted to the DBA:
SYSDBA
SYSOPER
SQL and GUI attempts to grant these privileges return successful messages, but they remain revoked. While signed in as SYS:
Signing in as SYS
Bookshop_DBA privileges appear as such
Granting with GUI
Granting with SQL
Result for both
Messages are returned to say that granting is successful but no changes are made.
Please show us what you're actually doing.
If you're using the dialog as shown, and getting problems, you should be able to report an any ORA- errors.
For example:
And you don't have to guess what SQL Developer is actually doing - click on the SQL page of the edit user dialog.
Before going further, please consider:
you should in general NEVER login as SYSDBA - unless you need to actually shut down or alter a database. Don't use it as an all powerful PRIV to get around security/grant issues
you should know what you're doing before you grant it to someone, or even use it yourself. Read the docs, then read them again. Otherwise, this is how you do very, very bad things to your database.
Running this code from a non-privileged user:
-- SYSTEM PRIVILEGES
GRANT SYSDBA TO "user" ;
GRANT SYSOPER TO "user" ;
Error starting at line : 6 in command -
GRANT SYSDBA TO "user"
Error report -
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
01031. 00000 - "insufficient privileges"
*Cause: An attempt was made to perform a database operation without
the necessary privileges.
*Action: Ask your database administrator or designated security
administrator to grant you the necessary privileges
Error starting at line : 7 in command -
GRANT SYSOPER TO "user"
Error report -
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
01031. 00000 - "insufficient privileges"
*Cause: An attempt was made to perform a database operation without
the necessary privileges.
*Action: Ask your database administrator or designated security
administrator to grant you the necessary privileges
So, how do we get around this?
You need to do this for the user who is performing the grants - and you better REALLY trust this user, if you're going to let them do this SYSDBA...
GRANT SYSDBA TO "*user*" WITH ADMIN OPTION;
But, that's NOT ENOUGH.
Per the DOCS:
Because SYSDBA and SYSOPER are the most powerful database privileges,
the WITH ADMIN OPTION is not used in the GRANT statement. That is, the
grantee cannot in turn grant the SYSDBA or SYSOPER privilege to
another user. Only a user currently connected as SYSDBA can grant or
revoke another user's SYSDBA or SYSOPER system privileges. These
privileges cannot be granted to roles, because roles are available
only after database startup. Do not confuse the SYSDBA and SYSOPER
database privileges with operating system roles.
So, in SQL Developer, disconnect.
Change your connection properties:
Now that you're connected as SYSDBA, you can do...perilous things...like grant that to someone else.
PS - Don't ever GRANT SYS anything to a demo schema like HR. And don't have these demo schemas in production environments, they're only there as learning resources.
It may be due to the user you are connected with. SYSDBA and SYSOPER privs can only be granted by a SYSDBA user.
Currently, playing around with Oracle DB 11g on Windows XP. Logged in as scott user (not sysdba) with granted DBA role. According to Oracle docs "DBA = All system privileges WITH ADMIN OPTION". Why then creation of a new user gives error "ORA-01031 insufficient privileges..."? Here's DDL command executed using SQL Developer:
CREATE USER john identified by 123
Check out document for SET ROLE and default role
To enable all roles granted to you for the current session, issue the following statement:
SET ROLE ALL;
Or modify user default role
ALTER USER scott DEFAULT ROLE ALL;
In Oracle, a table, 'MyTable' is owned by 'User1', how can I grant table access permission to another user, say 'User2' ?
In SQL server, we have some application access permission, does Oracle has something ?
You can grant SELECT privileges (or INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, and a few others like REFERENCES) to a user
GRANT SELECT
ON user1.MyTable
TO user2
It would be more common, though, to create a role, grant the privileges to the role, and then grant the role to whatever users need it, i.e.
CREATE ROLE user1_select;
GRANT SELECT
ON user1.MyTable
TO user1_select;
GRANT user1_select
TO user2;
That makes it easier in the future to grant a single role to more users and to ensure that all the users with a specific job function have the same set of roles rather than trying to make sure that you've granted everyone access to exactly the same set of objects.
Can someone advise me on how to create a user in Oracle 11g and only grant that user the ability only to execute one particular stored procedure and the tables in that procedure.
I am not really sure how to do this!
Connect as SYSTEM.
CREATE USER username IDENTIFIED BY apassword;
GRANT CONNECT TO username;
GRANT EXECUTE on schema.procedure TO username;
You may also need to:
GRANT SELECT [, INSERT] [, UPDATE] [, DELETE] on schema.table TO username;
to whichever tables the procedure uses.
Follow the below steps for creating a user in Oracle.
--Connect as System user
CONNECT <USER-NAME>/<PASSWORD>#<DATABASE NAME>;
--Create user query
CREATE USER <USER NAME> IDENTIFIED BY <PASSWORD>;
--Provide roles
GRANT CONNECT,RESOURCE,DBA TO <USER NAME>;
--Provide privileges
GRANT CREATE SESSION, GRANT ANY PRIVILEGE TO <USER NAME>;
GRANT UNLIMITED TABLESPACE TO <USER NAME>;
--Provide access to tables.
GRANT SELECT,UPDATE,INSERT ON <TABLE NAME> TO <USER NAME>;
The Oracle documentation is comprehensive, online and free. You should learn to use it. You can find the syntax for CREATE USER here and for GRANT here,
In order to connect to the database we need to grant a user the CREATE SESSION privilege.
To allow the new user rights on a stored procedure we need to grant the EXECUTE privilege. The grantor must be one of these:
the procedure owner
a user granted execute on that procedure with the WITH ADMIN option
a user with the GRANT ANY OBJECT privilege
a DBA or other super user account.
Note that we would not normally need to grant rights on objects used by a stored procedure in order to use the procedure. The default permission is that we execute the procedure with the same rights as the procedure owner and, as it were, inherit their rights when executing the procedure. This is covered by the AUTHID clause. The default is definer (i.e. procedure owner). Only if the AUTHID is set to CURRENT_USER (the invoker, that is our new user) do we need to grant rights on objects used by the procedure. Find out more.
Don't use these approach in critical environment like TEST and PROD. Below steps are just suggested for local environment. For my localhost i create the user via these steps:
IMPORTANT NOTE : Create your user with SYSTEM user credentials.Otherwise you may face problem when you run multiple application on same database.
CONNECT SYSTEM/<<System_User_Password>>#<<DatabaseName>>; -- connect db with username and password, ignore if you already connected to database.
Then Run below script
CREATE USER <<username>> IDENTIFIED BY <<password>>; -- create user with password
GRANT CONNECT,RESOURCE,DBA TO <<username>>; -- grant DBA,Connect and Resource permission to this user(not sure this is necessary if you give admin option)
GRANT CREATE SESSION TO <<username>> WITH ADMIN OPTION; --Give admin option to user
GRANT UNLIMITED TABLESPACE TO <<username>>; -- give unlimited tablespace grant
EDIT: If you face a problem about oracle ora-28001 the password has expired also this can be useful run
select * from dba_profiles;-- check PASSWORD_LIFE_TIME
ALTER PROFILE DEFAULT LIMIT PASSWORD_LIFE_TIME UNLIMITED; -- SET IT TO UNLIMITED
As previously mentioned multiple times in the comments, the use of the CONNECT, RESOURCE and DBA roles is discouraged by Oracle.
You have to connect as SYS to create your role and the user(s) which are given this role. You can use SQL Developer or SQL*Plus as you prefer. Do not forget to mention the SYSDBA role in the logon string. The connect_identifier uses different syntaxes.
sqlplus sys/<<password>>#<<connect_identifier>> as sysdba
Let's say you have a 12cR1 like the one provided as a VM with the "Oracle Technology Network Developer Day". The connect strings might be (to connect to the provided PDB) :
sqlplus sys/oracle#127.0.0.1/orcl as sysdba
sqlplus sys#"127.0.0.1/orcl" as sysdba -- to avoid putting the pw in clear
Note that under Unix, the quotes have to be escaped otherwise they will be consumed by the shell. Thus " becomes \".
Then you create the role MYROLEand grant it other roles or privileges. I added nearly the bare minimum to do something interesting :
create role myrole not identified;
grant create session to myrole;
grant alter session to myrole;
grant create table to myrole;
Next your create the user MYUSER. The string following identified by which is the password is case-sensitive. The rest is not. You could also use SQL delimited identifiers (surrounded by quotes ") instead of regular identifiers which are converted tu uppercase and subject to a few limitations. The quota could be unlimited instead of 20m.
create user myuser identified by myuser default tablespace users profile default account unlock;
alter user myuser quota 20m on users;
grant myrole to myuser;
Eventually, you connect as your new user.
Please note that you could also alter the default profile or provide another one to customize some settings as the expiration period of passwords, the number of permitted failed login attempts, etc.
CREATE USER USER_NAME IDENTIFIED BY PASSWORD;
GRANT CONNECT, RESOURCE TO USER_NAME;
CREATE USER books_admin IDENTIFIED BY MyPassword;
GRANT CONNECT TO books_admin;
GRANT CONNECT, RESOURCE, DBA TO books_admin;
GRANT CREATE SESSION GRANT ANY PRIVILEGE TO books_admin;
GRANT UNLIMITED TABLESPACE TO books_admin;
GRANT SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE ON schema.books TO books_admin;
