The FBI denies that the leaked priv lwa data of 12 million iOS users, part of this week online came, are coming from a compromised FBI laptop. According to the bureau has that data in his possession.
Thus saith the FBI hackerscollectief Antisec. Antisec posted earlier this week a million udids and device names of iOS users on Pastebin. The collective claims that the data of a total of twelve million iOS users in the hands and that they come from a laptop to an FBI employee belongs. According to Antisec, the employee concerned, in march of this year, a Java vulnerability affected, so the data obtained could be.
According to the FBI there is nothing of true; the agency says in a statement that the information in his possession and that there is no evidence that there is an intrusion is on a laptop. In a tweet was it even know any more surely then formulated: “We have the information spoken of is never in possession. Conclusion: TOTALLY UNTRUE.”
The FBI went into an elaborate explanation in his statement is not out of the question, or the information may be in the possession of the NCFTA, a body that works with both the government and the private sector in the area of cybercrime. The presumption therefore exists, because the acronym NCFTA, according to Antisec appears in the file name of the csv file that the user data contained.
From an analysis of Tweakers.net it appears that between the data published the udids of over 10,000 Speakers sit. This applies to devices where the device name is followed by the Dutch word ‘of’; it is therefore well possible that there are even more Dutch udids tussenstaan, of device names with a different structure.
