-- Problem Statement:
Using a new installation of 10.2.0.1 64-bit on Windows x64 with patch set 10.2.0.3 applied.
In this case no database has been tested with 10.2.0.1 as a full export of a 9.2.0.6 32-bit export dump was imported directly into 10.2.0.3.
Now the database crashes regularly without any messages in the alert.log.because the oracle.exe (for the Windows OracleService<SID>) just fails repeatedly.
The Windows Event Viewer Application log shows similar errors like below.
Note that these errors are also logged into the RDA report.

Cause
The most probable root cause are connection attempts from Clients <= 8.1.7.4.
This is based on the following bug reports.
Internal/unpublished bug report
Bug 6122521/6012921 - DATABASE SERVICE CRASHES WHEN A CLIENT CONNECTS
Published bug report
Bug 6012921 - 10.2.0.3 DATABASE SERVICE CRAHSES WHEN CONNECTING FROM REMOTE CLIENTS <= 8.1.7.4
Bug 6122521 mentions specifically this problem of the database crashing DOES NOT occur
until the 10.2.0.3 patch set is applied. In other words, on different databases that are at 10.2.0.1.0 (base release) on the same 64-bit Windows platform, attempts to connect with these older client tools do not crash the database service.
According to Bug 6012921 this issue has been fixed in 10.2.0.3 patch 7.
Solution
-- To implement the solution, please execute the following steps::
1. Apply a recent 10.2.0.3 patch bundle for Windows x64, e.g. 10.2.0.3 patch 14 or newer.
Patch bundle 10.2.0.3 patch 14 can be downloaded as
Patch 6627414 Oracle Database Family: Patch
ORACLE 10.2.0.3 PATCH 14 BUG FOR WINDOWS-64 AMD64 AND INTEL EM64T XP AND 2003
File: p6627414_10203_MSWIN-x86-64.zip
2. Upgrade all Clients <= 8.1.7.4 to at least 8.1.7.4 because of the interoperability limitations of the different Oracle versions.
Please note that 8.1.7 is in fact no longer supported.
