Oyster card hack to be released

Submitted by DangerFace
DangerFace writes "A little while ago some Dutch researchers cracked the Oyster card http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oyster_card, meaning they could get free public transport around London. The company that makes the cards, NXP, sought and got an injunction to stop the exploit being published, but that has now been overruled by a Dutch judge. Here's the BBC story on it: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/7516869.stm. The lovely Dutch blokes are holding off from releasing the hack for the time being, to give NXP time to secure their systems. First submission! Huzzah!"
