#### warning those in the US working for the gov ####
you better look away now as the NSA stuff most likely is top secret or so
The shadowbrokers today released yet another set of the allegedly NSA EquationGroup hacking tools - this last dump seems to be pretty devesating for Microsoft as many many many of the already tried exploits target M$ in several versions.
The original one they released the password for:
and the new one of today
on this two git repos they are already decypted so be careful weather or not your download them or even run any of it
Damn, this cool, good post, but I think that you should put it in the title that this if read does go against quite a few people jobs considering how many people on here are doing stuff for the government, but than again most would know to stay away when shadowbrokers is mentioned.
The infosec people on twitter are harvesting through the dumps like mad - ever 10 min a new discovery XD
Like that?
That is perverted in a way - but on the other hand the policy is somewhat clear - it is not officially declassified and thus not your business to know; In my country at least when it is "public" (a.k.a. the newspapers have it) you ok to know it - even if it is not your classification level
Well we've already found a Win 8.1 exploit which might be Win 10 capable.
Aside from that all of the stuff we ran through our scanner was bloody indetectable except for some heuristic matches and some stuff that broke system integrity protection.
But this stuff is oldish. I'm pretty sure It's long been improved, the payloads are all robust stuff, whoever made these is probably even using revision control and has release cycle.
We didn't scan everything just some of the nice bits. The boring stuff our VM already threw out. Won't even really bother looking at those, since they've already 'dismissed themselves'. But honestly I also can't say exactly, because policy.
