Symptoms

Using the SDO_OVERLAPS function between a line and polygon returns 0 rows in 12c, but the same function usage with the same data in 11g  returns a line.

The executing SQL statement is as follows.
select * from <table> where SDO_OVERLAPS(pos /* LINE DATA */, (select pos /* POLYGON DATA */ from <table> where <id column> = <value>))='TRUE';
