seems to me there are a lot of false posititives....I am still proving

plugin 18034 checks for....In our case it seems that the code isn't
smart enough to determine if the patch was applied. It only looks at the
version number for the database....and the patches don't change the
version number, so possibly your false positive is similar.

What does this have to do with plugin#18502 ? To do a better job, the Oracle plugins would require credentials to log into the Oracle database. This has nothing to do with the SMB plugin.
