looks like CIA used fake certificate to sign its malware and make it look like it was legitimate code from Moscow-based antivirus firm Kaspersky Labs. There is an important lesson in attribution for all

I remember the states blaming kaspersky for some intrusion earlier this year, looks like it was all a cover up.

Now watch, they got caught with hands in the cookie jar, and there's going to be a bunch of pitchforks out for wikileaks not catching all the other kids stealing cookies. It's gross and childish.

Well.. what's the possibility that this "leak" and "source code" is something coming from russia/kaspersky to pretend it's a CIA cover up, in order to cover themselves up?

I mean... personally i really don't care. But for people like you and others who seem to care so much... is it a realistic possibility ?

Unlikely, core metrics will put a reasonable lie into this. we've had a decent number of samples. Unless CIA actually hired Russians just for this tool. Which would be extra ironic Source code carries a fingerprint of the team who worked on it.
