BUGS BUST OPEN 'UNBREAKABLE' ORACLE 9i

TODAY'S TOP STORY
U.K. security researcher David Litchfield is expected to unveil several security flaws in Oracle's flagship 9i database software at the Black Hat Windows Security Briefings conference in New Orleans Friday. Oracle has touted its 9i database as "unbreakable," but Litchfield claims that last December he uncovered several flaws that could leave servers loaded with the 9i software vulnerable to hacker control. Litchfield's assertions have resulted in criticism of Oracle, whose marketing campaign for the 9i database product focused on its secure status. http://zdnet.com.com/2100-1104-831204.html
