It's been reported that about 1 millions user accounts on SonyPictures that included email addresses, street address, Date-of-births, passwords and thousands of music codes and music coupons are compromised. Moreover, LulzSec has released a file that contains account information of about 50,000 users. (#-Link-Snipped-#)
Gizmodo has quoted the statements of the LulzSec Group as: "SonyPictures.com was owned by a very simple SQL injection, one of the most primitive and common vulnerabilities, as we should all know by now. From a single injection, we accessed EVERYTHING." The hacker group also retaliated on twitter. Check: https://twitter.com/#!/LulzSec
They tweeted., "Releasing some #-Link-Snipped-# embarrassment in a few minutes. Just finishing our torrent!"
Much to Sony's dismay, these repetitive attacks are crushing whatever faith remained among it's users.
