Oracle Breakable After All

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the well-duh dept.

Billy writes "Unless you've been living in a cave, you've seen Oracle's Unbreakable campaign (Can't break it. Can't break in.), which was kicked-off by Larry Ellison personally at Comdex last November. Now U.K. security researcher David Litchfield says you can break in, thanks to at least seven different security holes in Oracle 9i, according to this SecurityFocus story. Oracle's top security manager is quoted as saying that "unbreakable" doesn't really mean unbreakable, or something."

    Was I the only person who thought of the reprocutions of the meta-moderation?
    Emagin lots and lots of users with the ability to kill someones chances of moderating with a fair/unfair rulling. I would not be suprised to see that meta-moderation was suspended till this thread is arcived.
