Eehhhh. That only, and I really mean only, works if that software doesn’t handle data strictly as data (to simplify the matter somewhat - but not much). I mean, SQL injection via DNA (which is the least unlikely way for this to happen by some margin) sounds cool but if the guys handling that sort of sensitive information are *so* sloppy in their coding practices you have a bigger problem.
This is not, nor will it ever be, a realistic attack vector.
…No matter how ‘cool’ it sounds.

Oh, and the first hint of that was that it appeared on wired. Which is rarely, if ever, more than sensationalist rubbish.

phew!
