The length epends on the country I guess. I haven't seen anything longer than 4 digits in Germany whereas in Italy longer PINs were more common. If the magnetic strip with a 4 digit PIN is still on there, the advanced security of the chip won't help much though. Break the chip and force every system to use the strip and you're done (again, I assume that because there is no unaccessible memory on the strip, anything on there can be easily brute forced so I further assume the information on the strip is not encoded with the PIN at all but then the PIN equals the default authentication method on the bank side, not the more complex secret on the chip) |
