WikiLeaks has unveiled a CIA tool that translates the malware used by the secret service into the enemy language.
WikiLeaks has released the third installment of CIA documents on Friday, which focuses on the anti-forensics tools available to the agency.
The two previous releases of Vault7 have been focused on Coca-Cola Hacking manuals and hacking tools. The first group of leaked files was released on March 7, and mentions the exploits used to bypass it better safety και την κρυπτογράφηση συσκευών Android, Apple iPhone, τηλεοράσεων Samsung, υπολογιστών με Windows or Mac, and other devices.
Two weeks later, with episode "two", we learned that the CIA could install malware-spyware on Mac and iPhones before they buy its targets.
The newly leaked files reveal the source code of a secret anti-forensics tool the CIA calls the Marble Framework. The tool is designed to disguise it malicious CIA software and make it almost undetectable by security researchers trying to analyze it. This is achieved by obfuscating snippets of the code text.
But it is Marble Framework seems to have a feature that makes it stand out.
The tool allows all malware developers to suspect that malicious software was created by someone who does not speak English, but Chinese, Russian, Korean, Arabic, and Persian. Of course, you understand the languages of the main cyber-opponents of the US, China, Russia, North Korea and (historically, at least) Iran.
WikiLeaks reports that this technology enables the surveillance of Americans' lives by fooling security researchers into thinking, for example, that they are being watched by the Chinese team PLA.1
Marble Framework is used only to conceal information through malware malware, and is not malware, which allowed WikiLeaks to release its source code.
Recall that WikiLeaks has promised to make available the source code of all CIA hacking tools to those directly interested Companies.
