An dangerous bug has been reported in Oracle lastest database which is supposed to be 'Unbreakable'.

See
http://www.dbresources.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=94 for details.

Oracle9i Database Server could allow a remote attacker with limited database privileges could create a SQL query that uses the ANSI outer join syntax to gain unauthorized access to restricted data.This major bug follows a series of security holes found in Oracle 9i in recent months.

The Idea of Oracle providing our national ID card has started giving me chills now.
