Re: The History of Scott/Tiger
#2Scott/Tiger was one of my favourite ways to get access to exposed Oracle DBs when I was a pentester back in the 9i 10g era. Reliably there, not often disabled (well until after the pentest anyway), had good privileges.

Why is it called "dual" if there is only one item in it? I guess it's a joke of some sort, but I'm not getting it :-/
