Flaw hunters pick holes in Oracle patches

the essence of hacking....: The essence of hacking is to phish out a legit username and password...old-hat for blackhat and whitehat hackers alike.

By getting in through the unauthorized use of a legit account is the key to keeping the hack undetected for as long as possible....every hacker knows that!

If you would actually read the article you refer to http://www.internetnews.com/security/article.php/3529046 you would find that it was not an inside personnel issue...but an online hacker.
