Outlaw Country: CIA Linux Kernel Malware
- benchaney 9y agoI was expecting a kernel vulnerability. This is really more of an exploit payload.
- thelamer 9y agoHow is this any different from a standard root kit? It is not a remote hack and requires elevated perms on the machine. This could be a shadowed binary blob and achieve the exact same thing. With that said , are they technically in breach of GPLv2 ?
- scj 9y agoAs I understand the GPL, they would need to provide source code to people they distribute binaries to... So in practice, they are probably complying with the GPL.
- cphoover 9y agoOnly works on CentOS 6. Also not a vulnerability but a payload. Interesting tool tho.
