More on COMMAND_TYPE values.

This is just a quick update on finding the values for COMMAND_TYPE as is held in V$SQL and V$SQLAREA. The original post is here. Quick sumary – table SYS.AUDIT_ACTIONS as an almost-complete list of COMMAND_TYPES.

In one of those little concidences of fate, I have been looking at use of SQL AUDIT for the last few days. I am not very knowledgeble about AUDIT or oracle security in general, so I do what I normally do when I don’t know much about an area. I look on the web, scan the manual and then go poking around in the data dictionary. I came across two potentially interesting tables, SYS.AUDIT_ACTIONS and SYS.STMT_AUDIT_OPTION_MAP. At first glance they look to hold similar information, things that can be audited. This seems to be what SYS.STMT_AUDIT_OPTION_MAP is:-

select * from SYS.STMT_AUDIT_OPTION_MAP
order by option#
   OPTION# NAME                                       PROPERTY

         5 CREATE SESSION                                    0
         6 ALTER SESSION                                     0
         7 RESTRICTED SESSION                                0

-- lets look at dba_audit_trail that underlys many of the audit views.

  and - aud.logoff$dead = spm.privilege (+)
  and   aud.logoff$dead = aom.option#   (+)
  and - aud.priv$used   = spx.privilege (+)

What about AUDIT_ACTIONS? Well, I looked at the table and thought “this looks very similar to the list of values for COMMAND_TYPE – I should check that out”.

I don’t have to. The very next day Christian Antognini posted a quick comment on the posting about COMMAND_TYPE telling me where one could find a list of these commands in the DB – Yep, AUDIT_ACTIONS.

Christian’s posting warned me that a couple of commands are missing (our old favorite from the original post MERGE being one and CREATE_DISKGROUP being the other he cites) but it includes several more that are not listed in the manual. If anyone is aware of COMMAND_TYPES not included in AUDIT_ACTIONS then let me know and I can maintain a list here.

{Thanks to Chris for providing many more missing actions and two new to 11.2, included below}

New ones to those liste in the manual are:-
128 – FLASHBACK
129 – CREATE_SESSION
197 – PURGE USER_RECYCLEBIN
198 – PURGE DBA_RECYCLEBIN
199 – PURGE TABLESAPCE
200 – PURGE TABLE
201 – PURGE INDEX
202 – UNDROP OBJECT
204 – FLASHBACK DATABASE
205 – FLASHBACK TABLE
206 – CREATE RESTORE POINT
207 – DROP RESTORE POINT
208 – PROXY AUTHENTICATION ONLY
209 – DECLARE REWRITE EQUIVALENCE
210 – ALTER REWRITE EQUIVALENCE
211 – DROP REWRITE EQUIVALENCE
and new in the table for 11.2
225 – ALTER DATABASE LINK
305 – ALTER PUBLIC DATABASE LINK

Missing codes are:-
88 – ALTER VIEW
90 – SET CONSTRAINTS
187 – CREATE SPFILE
188 – CREATE PFILE
189 – MERGE
192 – ALTER SYNONYM
193 – ALTER DISKGROUP
194 – CREATE DISKGROUP
195 – DROP DISKGROUP
XXX – FLASHBACK

Here is the list form AUDIT_ACTIONS from 10.2.0.3 (an eyeball check with 11.1.0.1 indicates the list has not increased in that version at least, which surprised me):
