Starbug of the CCC has successfully attacked the Apple Touch ID sensor on the iPhone 5s approximately 24 hours after the phone was released in Germany. Starbug's successful attack won the http://www.IsTouchIDHackedYet.com competition and he is giving the challenge pledge funds to Raumfahrtagentur, a spinoff from CCC-Berlin.
Starbug's earlier research on the subject (from 2006) can be found here: http://berlin.ccc.de/~starbug/talks/0611-pacsec-hacking_fingerprint_recognition_systems.pdf
