ORA-00960: ambiguous column naming in select list

An ORA-00960:ambiguous column naming in select list error is caused, for example, with the following select statement because the identifier object_name in the order by clause does technically (but not value-wise) identify a column:
select
   object_type,
   object_name,
   obj.*
from
   user_objects obj
order by
   object_name;
In order to fix this error, at least the identifier object_name of the order by clause must be qualified with the alias:
select
   object_type,
   object_name,
   obj.*
from
   user_objects obj
order by
   obj.object_name;
