License plate SQL Injection



Wow, its been a while since I posted, I have been travelling all over the world over the last month or so, teaching my Oracle security class and also speaking at conferences and performing Oracle security audits. It's been a hectic few weeks. Hopefully I can do some blogging again soon.

I came across a post on my Oracle Security forum today posted by Marcel-Jan in a post title SQL Injection in license plate scanners the original source is quoted in the post. This is a cool idea, SQL injection as part of a license plate to fool the license plate reader software. As the original source states, its likely to be a hoax but the idea is great, it reminds me of the scam to add SQL Injection strings to forms with a pen that are read in by computer, the governments of the world love to use these. Also it reminds me of a bar code SQL Injection attack. Fun anyway wink
