What an interesting article! In Bruce Schneier's book "Secrets & lies" he talkes about smart card hacking. He states one of the main vulderabilities with smart cards is that they are self contained, and can be manipulated as they interact with the outside environment.

Sure, that was interesting, but here is a great example of smart card hacking at work!
