A hacking group Shadow Brokers released a new data purportedly stolen from the NSA. The group has threatened earlier that they would auction the second set of data: “best files” it had stolen, but they hasn't published it yet. However, they posted some of the sexually explicit fanfic about Bill Clinton and Loretta Lynch on Medium.
On 31 October, the group posted a list of servers compromised by the Equation Group, a hacking team with ties to the NSA.If the list is accurate then NSA is in great difficulty. Three months ago they published a list which was legit.
According to security researcher Mustafa Al-Bassam the list appears to be old. And the server was compromised between 2000 and 2010.
In the new published leak there are more than 300 IP addresses and more than 300 domain names that have been compromised by the Equation Group. According to a Hacker House analysis, this hack has affected hosts around the world. “However, the top 10 impacted countries are China, Japan, Korea, Spain, Germany, India, Taiwan, Mexico, Italy & Russia,” Hacker House reports. “The top three, China, Japan and Korea, make up a substantial number of the attacked hosts.”
The Shadow Brokers referred the DNC hack, the U.S. election, and the auction of “best files " on a Medium post. The group suggests that the hacks was perpetrated by Iran rather than Russia as revenge for U.S. interference in that nation’s election.
“USSA elections is coming! 60% of Amerikansky never voting,” the group wrote. “TheShadowBrokers is having suggestion. On November 8th, instead of not voting, maybe be stopping the vote all together? Maybe being grinch who stopped election from coming? Maybe hacking election is being the best idea? #hackelection2016. If peoples is not being hackers, then #disruptelection2016, #disruptcorruption2016. Maybe peoples not be going to work, be finding local polling places and protesting, blocking , disrupting , smashing equipment, tearing up ballots?”
