RFID Virus?
“RFID tags may be vulnerable to viruses.”, say computer science researchers. (RFID info)
No RFID viruses have been released yet but RFID tags have the characteristics to be engineered to exploit vulnerabilities in bank-end system. The attack methods can be SQL injection or buffer overflow attack. Patick Simpson, a master’s student, took only four hours to write a proof-of-concept, self-replicating RFID virus, which is small enough to fit on a RFID tag with as little as 114 byes of memory.
