If you're on windows, yes.

If you're on linux, yes.

No, VLC is simply one of a dozen + other programs used as a cover program to inject malware or other crap into a targets computer.

VLC itself is not broken, VLC itself is not vulnerable in any way.

It's just being used as an easy way to hide OTHER code inside of it. The CIA takes the VLC source and adds their own code to it making their own VLC version which LOOKS legit, but upon closer audit would obviously not be the same as normal VLC.

However this code isn't being audited, the CIA are simply using it because it looks like any other software tool upon a cursory inspection. Anyone who actually went into the code itself would see what the CIA had done.


TLDR: No the CIA can't watch what your doing through VLC.

So, in order for this to be possible, the devs would have to agree to cooperate with government agencies correct?

IF that is indeed the case we should let these devs know that this isn't ok.

....you didn't read ANYTHING I said did you?


VLC has NOTHING in the source code related to this.

the CIA takes the VLC source and ADDS THEIR OWN CODE. They then take this SPECIAL CIA VERSION OF VLC and use it as an attack vector on a targets computer.

This DOES NOT EXIST IN THE VLC SOURCE.

They are adding it AFTER THE FACT.


VLC is simply a wrapper.


The same exact thing can be done with almost any program, McAfee, Norton, Fubar, WinAMP, etc, etc, etc.

All they're using VLC for is because it's open source, well known, and common to see used by people in the industry (so running VLC on a targets computer wouldn't be seen as out of the ordinary)


Again, VLC itself has NOTHING done to it. The devs didn't do shit, the CIA doesn't have a backdoor in to ALL VLC copies, just the ones THEY modify and THEY deploy manually to targeted computers.

Fucking bullshit
It's been a month since I downloaded Daisy's Destruction from here on Sup Forums and no SWAT team has raided my fucking house
and I use windows 10 and VLC

Only one problem. Most people download VLC from the official website where CIA cant add their hackfuck versions.

Don't watch CP, then.

...What's the problem with that?

>Only one problem
okay?
>Most people download VLC from the official website where CIA cant add their hackfuck versions

Isn't that LITERALLY what my post was about?

The CIA isn't doing shit to the VLC source code.

>VLC itself is not broken, VLC itself is not vulnerable in any way.
What the fuck am i reading?

they already took pics of your tiny whiteboi penisia

Yes, good taste in anime user.

VLC isn't hacked you illiterate prick, if you don't even understand the leak, what the fuck makes you think you can understand a breakdown of what they're actually doing?


The CIA takes the VLC source and modifies it with DLL hijacking and malware injectors. This creates a foothold on the computer in question.

This is a special version of VLC that the CIA created internally, this VLC is NOT released to the public, this VLC is NOT the VLC you download off of the VLC website.

This is code ADDED to VLC by the CIA for their OWN use against a target, this is not a widespread issue with VLC in general.


Jesus fuck you guys are retarded, even when im spoon feeding you this shit.

God, you idiots are retarded.

the CIA hijacks legit DLLs to inject their own code.

The programs themselves aren't "hacked"

What are security updates?

THE FUCKIN CIA NEEDS PHYSICAL ACCESS TO THE FUCKIN COMPUTER IN ORDER FOR THIS SHIT RAINDMAKER TO WORK

I'm throwing all my computers into the bathtub now

GNU/Linux*
cracked*

yes, and they are fapping in solidarity with you

YES

GNU/Botnet*

Yes, and they see you masturbating.

what's a DLL??

images.videolan.org/press/PR_CIA_Vault7_VLC.pdf

those buttons can be easily hijacked

bullshit

fuck off cia nigger

Nope, just the windows version.

Yes.
>Your left hand is touching your chin.

1. unplug ethernet cable
2. done

>he hasn't read the leaks
>or he has but he's in massive denial

lol lincuck

If you need to know if your device is vulnerable, refer to this video. youtu.be/w4-eJL1jjVQ

so all you do is unplug the ethernet cord?

False

>4kb/s

Wew

So it could get off basic text strings or similar, but it wont be sending out an encrypted archive of files or some shit.

>mfw all of that light CP i've consumed over the last few years was all watched on VLC

>light CP
What is this? Less calories?

I consider it to be videos that still sexual, but not actual pornography. Like videos of lolis kissing, stuff like that.

They probably could if they cared, but the CIA's remit is espionage, they are only installing their malware into the computers of their targets. And their targets have the kind of networks or security software that might detect the CIA's malware.

All it takes is file names in order for them to get a search warrant.

t. VLC creator

Yes. VLC is a CIA honeypot and botnet. This was confirmed in the leaks. Anyone who says otherwise is probably working for the CIA or VLC.

They are able to keep a log of the files you watch and also watch a remote projection of the video you are watching if necessary. They remotely inject these into all copies of VLC after installation.

By the way, I've been working in the IT sector for over 15 years.

And they would need to have a drone outside of your apartment.

Its great that is technically possible for ridiculous to worry about it unless there was a reason why you are being targeted in particular.

yes only tails is safe now

Here is a really good question: Why would any spy in the entire world give a shit about any one of you?

What makes you even think that they even notice you?

nope
not only that, they have to hijack the installer and put their meme magic on it first

this CIA NIGGERS used dll injection,

Nah they just use vlc vulnerabilities to take control of your whole computer with custom-crafted video.

Duh.

This my dudes. He actually understood what was happening.

just look@wikileaks

A: yes.

they can do this in place, they don't need to install a separate cia vlc, they can do that ahead of time with the management engine

mitm

What if I invented a really valuable invention and they can steal it? What if I'm a member of a party which the deep state opposes? There are a hundred valid reasons to keep secrets, especially since the CIA revealed itself to be a bunch of partisan would-be technocrats.

I had an invention of mine stolen by the deep state in the 1990s. It happens, you learn.

>not checking the hash

Do they do this to infiltrate targets within a closed network? I mean whats the point if ms already provides backdoors

>your site is in cloudflare

every attack surface is a good attack surface

>Using the hash for more than verifying the download is complete.

THEY HEEEEEREEEEEEE

why does MPC-HC play videos I took with my nexus phone upside down but VCL don't have this problem?

Retards everwhere. If you don't understand the basics of hacking why do you even contribute your worthless opnions.

The one fag fucking spoonfed you exactly what was happening.

>I don't know what a DLL injection is
Ok shill.

>tfw not a US citizen
>tfw not protected by US law

>Can the CIA see what I'm watching?
Well, yes.

I can't tell if half this thread is fucking retarded or if I'm just being hooked

>By the way, I've been working in the IT sector for over 15 years.
>level one technical support

ALL

Read it from the bottom up.
