Wikileaks busts the CIA

[Mountain Man]

This has the potential to be the blockbuster story of the decade:

Julian Assange's latest data dump exposes the CIA's extensive surveillance program, including the fact that they can turn any "smart" device like phones and TVs into a monitoring device without the user's knowledge. Then there's this particularly damning revelation: the CIA apparently maintains an extensive database of digital "fingerprints" that they use to implicate other governments (such as Russia!) in cyber attacks that were actually carried out by the CIA themselves.

The CIA's Remote Devices Branch's UMBRAGE group collects and maintains a substantial library of attack techniques 'stolen' from malware produced in other states including the Russian Federation.

With UMBRAGE and related projects the CIA cannot only increase its total number of attack types but also misdirect attribution by leaving behind the "fingerprints" of the groups that the attack techniques were stolen from.

Wow! This is huge...

[Sparko]

I hope they are not stupid enough to release the actual software.

[Mountain Man]

It's ironic that the CIA has apparently fallen victim to the very techniques they themselves employ.

Now isn't that interesting...

Well, that's the game. Establish back doors, and guard your own. Sometimes you get the goose, and sometimes the goose gets you.

I emailed Julian, he's gonna rip me a copy of the software.

Julian, huh? He still insists that I call him Mr. Assange.

I brought him a case of corn dogs and a Snapple.

Well you are not a member of our super secret Little Orphan Annie club. I bet you don't even have the decoder ring!

The only thing I have is this stupid link to Breitbart.

Recently, the CIA lost control of the majority of its hacking arsenal including malware, viruses, trojans, weaponized "zero day" exploits, malware remote control systems and associated documentation. This extraordinary collection, which amounts to more than several hundred million lines of code, gives its possessor the entire hacking capacity of the CIA. The archive appears to have been circulated among former U.S. government hackers and contractors in an unauthorized manner, one of whom has provided WikiLeaks with portions of the archive.

[...]

Once a single cyber 'weapon' is 'loose' it can spread around the world in seconds, to be used by rival states, cyber mafia and teenage hackers alike.

So apparently this stuff is already out there. WikiLeaks is simply making it public.

But did you make sure to drink your Ovaltine?

As of October 2014 the CIA was also looking at infecting the vehicle control systems used by modern cars and trucks. The purpose of such control is not specified, but it would permit the CIA to engage in nearly undetectable assassinations.

Scary stuff, man.

[Bisto]

If this stuff is legit, Jason Bourne looks tame by comparison.

No reason to think it's not legit. WikiLeaks has a 100% perfect track record.
