Previously on Dragon Ball Z: Law enforcement agents seized the BreachForum backend and placed a 'this site has been seized' sticker on the BreachForum landing page. However, shortly after the takedown, BreachForum quickly returned online.
Fast forward to today: BreachForum administrative staff issued a statement on their forum to Breach members and law enforcement agencies. The messages are attached to this post.
Breach administrative staff also shared e-mail's between them and their host provider
In summary Breach administrative staff assert law enforcement failed to successfully executive a seizure and inadvertently caused damage to a business who is not affiliated with them. Breach administrators also some how acquired the e-mail correspondence between law enforcement agencies and their host provider.
The latest release from Operation Endgame has been released.
In this video it is evident that Law enforcement agencies across the globe banded together to pay for roughly 30 seconds of Skrillex sound bites
Today we spoke with multiple individuals privy to and involved in the alleged TicketMaster breach.
Sometime in April an unidentified Threat Group was able to get access to TicketMaster AWS instances by pivoting from a Managed Service Provider. The TicketMaster breach was not performed by ShinyHunters group. ShinyHunters is the individual and/or group which posted the auction of the data, they are acting as a proxy for the Threat Group responsible for the compromise.
Based on data provided to us by the Threat Group responsible for the compromise, we can assert with a high degree of confidence the data is legitimate. Date ranges in the database appear to go as far back as 2011. However, some dates show information from the mid-2000's. Data shared with us includes:
- Full name
- Email address
- Address
- Telephone number
- Credit card number (hashed)
- Credit card type, authentication type, etc
- All user financial transactions
NOTE: The data provided to us, even as a 'sample', was absurdly large and made it difficult to review in depth. We are unable to verify the authenticity of financial information. Briefly skimming the PII present in the dump, it appears authentic.
We've updated the vx-underground papers collection. You won't believe what we've added. The 3rd paper will blow your mind!
^ That's how some media outlets write and no one likes it, not even the writers
From the United States Department of Justice:
911 S5 Botnet Dismantled and Its Administrator Arrested in Coordinated International Operation
Botnet Infected Over 19M IP Addresses to Enable Billions of Dollars in Pandemic and Unemployment Fraud, and Access to Child Exploitation Materials

May 22nd security research GossiTheDog was able to get Microsoft Recall. His wrote a long thread on Mastodon regarding it. The full thread is linked at the bottom of this if you're interested in the photos he shared.
tl;dr highlights:
- Enabled by default and globally in Microsoft Intune managed users for businesses
- Disabling recording of websites in Control Panel or GPO is still ... enabled (???), disabling recording of websites only stops recording in Microsoft Edge (???)
- Recall uses Core AI Platform service
- Screenshots are titled "Snapshots"
- Images are stored in APPDATA directory, administrative privileges not required to access storage
- Processed data stored in SQLite database, can be viewed programmatically

Someone reported one of our posts as ??? to Xitter which resulted in us receiving this e-mail this morning.
Presumably, our Google AI meme/mock post was reported as imagery which promotes self-harm.
Good morning.
Today is the day of rest. We hope all of you have enjoyed your weekend thus far. We will see you all on Monday.
Love you

Thank you, Ares, for supporting us by purchasing merchandise.
(we didn't understand the video because we don't speak Ukrainian)
Hello, how are you?
1. Our shipment of harddrives is on the way. We are expecting them sometime next week. Once they are received the cloning process will begin.
2. Bradley is OOO (like a loser), so giveaway winners and selections are briefly delayed
3. I love you
Crazy to think we've got Fed anime and Fed dubstep before we got Elder Scrolls VI or Grand Theft Auto VI

Law enforcement agencies across the globe have come together, similar to Goku and Vegeta doing the Gogeta fusion dance, to form "Operation Endgame".
Agencies from The Netherlands, Denmark, United Kingdom, France, Germany, and the United States have created a website and disclose episodes (and seasons?) and have countdowns to ... potential indictments or arrests? Operation Endgame has a timer, similar to ransomware groups, and is scheduled to release something in roughly 7 hours.
Each episode (a/k/a arrest or indictment?) comes with an actual anime short. Law enforcement going crazy 😂

Over the past couple of weeks several high-profile Threat Actors, believed to be operating out of the United States or United Kingdom, suddenly disappeared
There is no evidence of rebrand or exit. All contact addresses are active, logs still present. They just vanished 🤔
Write your local government representatives and demand any company introducing AI into their products be jailed for 15,000 years.

Strap yourself in because it's time for this weeks episode of "Microsoft being dedicated to security".
tl;dr wtf bro lol
Previously Microsoft unveiled 'Recall' – which will be deployed on Windows 11. Recall will take screenshots of your computer desktop, in unspecified intervals, and allow users to search through Recall data (aka your Desktop screenshots) using AI to allow users to ... find things they may have forgotten (???).
When Recall was announced numerous security researchers, cybersecurity firms, and privacy advocates called it a nightmare because Microsoft explicitly stated that Recall will make no attempt to perform content moderation. It will take screenshots of plain text passwords, financial data, etc. Users also expressed concerns over Recall recording sexual fetishes (i.e. them watching pornography) and called it a gross invasion of privacy.
Microsoft's retort was that Recall can be disabled in settings and Microsoft does not have access to any of the data. It is all stored locally. Researchers then questioned whether or not end users, who may not be as tech savvy, would even understand or know Recall is present and may not be able to disable it.
Microsoft also stated today to the BBC that because Recall is stored locally, the only way a Threat Actor would be able to access Recall data is if they have physical access to the machine, unlocked it, and then signed in.
This did little to persuade security researchers because, if the data is stored locally, they expressed concern of the possibility of Recall data being harvested by infostealer malware (e.g. Redline, FormBook, Rhad, etc.) or the data being exfiltrated in the event of a ransomware attack. Furthermore, if Recall is deployed on Enterprise environments, this may make Recall an even larger security risk due to the lack of content moderation (i.e. exposing crown jewels).
With Recall present, and if data can be imported or exported, it could essentially allow Threat Groups the ability to visually inspect and review victims machines using AI search.
Will researchers find a way to abuse Recall? Will Threat Actors find a way to abuse Recall? Will there be 'for educational uses only' proof-of-concepts on GitHub? Find out on the next episode of Dragon Ball Z

Someone found a Facebook post from 2006.
In 2006 this setup was insane.
Anyone who is capable of exercising any sort of critical thinking skills is capable of understanding the information displayed from the Google AI is innately false. It does not reflect an intelligent, informed, or well-minded advice to any individual having thoughts of self-harm or thoughts of harm toward others.
If you do not find humor in the absurdity of botched AI learning, while AI continues to be hailed as an omnipotent technology which will solve all problems, displaying wildly inappropriate and inaccurate information funny then ... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Not that big of a deal, dawg. If you're genuinely unhappy with it, unfollow us or something, we're just vibin' out trying to find humor in the everyday technological chaos.
It's time for your quarterly, and mandatory, continual education video from your HR department.
You sit down, play the video, and this what you learn about data backups:
Lots of updates coming on Monday.
Also, people have begun receiving their giveaway swag. We still have more people to select, but giving away $1,000 worth of merch is actually kind of time consuming.
Anyway, someone said their cat now uses the shirt for naps

Here is some code that was written about a year for a project for vx-underground. However, due to various reasons, the code is being publicly released.
tl;dr recursive loader, painful to reverse engineer
Explanation of code:
The following code is inspired by APT Linux/Kobalos. Kobalos was malware, suspected to be tied to the Chinese government, which was fully recursive. It was novel malware.
Following this inspiration, an x64 recursive loader was developed for Windows 10 and Windows 11. When compiled the binary has no entries in the IAT. The binary resolves all APIs via NTDLL. Additional libraries are loaded via LdrLoadDll.
The code recursively calls itself to execute functions. It determines which portion of code to execute using a flag (an enum). Each 'function' is encapsulated in a switch statement. All variables are recursively passed using the 'VARIABLE_TABLE' structure. The VARIABLE_TABLE also contains further nested structures for handling API function resolving, initializing COM objects and associated classes, and data structures for some 'switch functions' which may require additional variables for tasks.
To avoid the compiler optimizing code and introducing functions into the IAT, some STDIO functionality such as ZeroMemory have been re-written in more unorthodox methods.
HTTPS requests are handled by COM via the WinHttpRequest Object.
The code basically downloads a binary from vx-underground and executes it. Currently the code will not work because the executable hosted on vx-underground for the proof-of-concept is no longer there – although it was just a copy cmd.exe.
Code may have some bugs. It can be improved upon by introducing pseudo-polymorphism by 'scrambling' the order of switch statements and enum values on each build.

Today the NCA UK was discussing Operation Cronos (the takedown of Lockbit ransomware group) at SLEUTHCON – and for a brief moment in time we were on TV.
The cherry on top was the VX-UWU design as the profile picture.
