Details of 4.9 million students may have been hacked

KUALA LUMPUR: The Education Ministry’s online school examination analysis system, Sistem Analisis Peperiksaan Sekolah (SAPS), has been taken down.

This followed a tip-off to various media that the sapsnkra.moe.gov.my/ibubapa2/index.php site, introduced in July 2011 to centralise examination results from all states, was vulnerable to an attack called SQL Injection.
