Back in 1982, the CIA is alleged to have modified some computers that ultimately blew up a gas pipeline.

Spies to spy things. It's safe to assume that everyone with the power to do so is exploiting any advantage that they have.

CIA-staged gas pipeline explosion is an urban myth. I guess the same can be said about a lot of other casually known spy stories cited in this very discussion

Not only is it safe to assume such, it's unsafe to assume they aren't.
