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.
