Details of a computer hack which allowed researchers to clone identity cards that are used by million of people to access buildings and travel on public transport are to be published.

The company which makes the Mifare smartcard, which is used to gain access to thousands of British schools as well to ride on the London Underground and buses, had sought to prevent Dutch researchers from publishing details of the hack.

But a court in Holland has overturned an injunction that would have prevented the publication of the research, paving the way for academics from Radboud University to explain how they were able to ride the Tube free for a day with a cloned Oyster card
