Budapest police arrest hacker for revealing bug in e-Ticket system

Hungarian authorities arrested an 18-year-old for hacking and reporting a bug that allowed travelers to set their own ticket price in the public transport ticket system. The Budapest e-Ticket system had a significant number of vulnerabilities and no security protocols, researcher Laszlo Marai says. The system was rushed to market for the FINA world championships in Budapest. The launch was on July 14, the day of the events official opening, although there was no serious testing involved, explained Marai.”]
