How Hackers Used #Slack to Break into #EA #Games

A representative for the hackers told Motherboard in an online chat that the process started by purchasing stolen cookies being sold online for $10 and using those to gain access to a Slack channel used by EA.

...

The hackers then requested a multifactor #authentication token from EA IT support to gain access to EA's corporate #network. The representative said this was successful two times.

Once inside EA's network, the hackers found a service for EA developers for compiling games. They successfully logged in and created a virtual machine giving them more visibility into the network, and then accessed one more service and downloaded #game #source #code.

#Linux bans #University of #Minnesota for committing malicious #code

source: https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/linux-bans-university-of-minnesota-for-committing-malicious-code/

The move comes after a group of UMN researchers were caught submitting a series of malicious code commits, or #patches that deliberately introduced #security vulnerabilities in the official Linux #codebase, as a part of their #research activities.

These days I often have the feeling that everyone is going #crazy and has reached the end of their intellectual capacity. :(

#Microsoft liberates ancient MS-DOS #source from the #museum and sticks it in #GitHub

source: https://www.theregister.co.uk/2018/10/01/microsoft_msdos_source_on_github/

Finally the source from #MSDOS is under the #MIT license and therefore open source. The source that was given to the museum was only allowed to be viewed but not for use.

But what's all this about?

There has been for a long time #FreeDOS: http://www.freedos.org

So nobody needs the crap from Microsoft. Please place your source under a free #license from the beginning otherwise it's worthless for humanity.

The knowledge of the world belongs to mankind!
