SAP point-of-sale systems were totally hackable with $25 kit

Point-of-Sale systems from SAP had a vulnerability that allowed them to be hacked using a $25 Raspberry Pi or similar device, according to research unveiled at the Hack in the Box conference in Singapore last week.

Critical vulnerabilities in SAP’s POS – since resolved – created a means for hackers not only to steal customers’ card data but to gain unfettered control over the server, enabling them to change prices of goods with the help of a simple device, according to ERPScan.
