CIA malware and hacking tools

The CIA has a long standing "no comment" policy when asked about the authenticity of any documents. So you can't rely on the absence of a counter-claim to prove the veracity of the documents.

I wouldn't rule out an intentional leak to spread misinformation.

That's fine... but if no one is disputing the truth of something, there's no evidence whatsoever that it's false.
