After you hand the gate agent your boarding pass to scan and head back onto the plane, there’s a pretty good chance you quit paying attention to that stub in your hand. If you’re like me, your boarding pass will either end up on the ground or in the pocket of the seat in front of you. Big mistake.
当你检票以后准备登机时，你很可能忽视你手上的机票存根。如果你和我一样的话，你的登机牌的命运无非不是跌落在地上，就是遗落在飞机座位前的口袋里。这是一个大错误！
The innocent looking lines and fuzzy pixels of the bar code actually contain a treasure trove of passenger information that could easily be exploited by shady characters who want access to your accounts. That’s exactly what Brian Krebs discovered in his blog Krebs on Security, after a reader did some sleuthing on a friend who’d posted a picture of his boarding pass on Facebook. Using a free online reader, the amateur detective was able to decode the bar code quickly.
实际上，那些模糊的像素条形码上有很多乘客信息，这些信息极易被想要窃取你账户的坏人获取。在一名读者对他在脸谱上张贴登机牌的朋友做过一些调查之后，Brian Krebs 在他的博客安全中发现了这一事实。运用一款免费的线上浏览器，业余侦探可以迅速对条形码进行解码。
The information uncovered included his friend’s name, phone number, frequent-flier number and flight information, all of which can be used to access an account and take effective control of it. According to Krebs, the information is also enough to make it easier for an attacker to reset the PIN number used to secure the account.
被披露的信息包括他朋友的名字，电话号码，常旅客数量和航班信息，所有这些信息都可被用来获取账户并进行账户管理。据Krebs说，这些信息业足够让攻击者更轻易地更改安全账户密码。 |
