WikiLeaks published the first-ever batch of source code for CIA cyber-weapons. The source code released today is for a toolkit named Hive, a so-called implant framework, a system that allows CIA operatives to control the malware it deploys on infected computers.

Below is a list of the most important CIA cyber-weapons released by WikiLeaks as part of the Vault 7 series.
ᗙ Weeping Angel - tool to hack Samsung smart TVs
ᗙ Fine Dining - a collection of fake, malware-laced apps
ᗙ Grasshopper - a builder for Windows malware
ᗙ DarkSeaSkies - tools for hacking iPhones and Macs
ᗙ Scribble - beaconing system for Office documents
ᗙ Archimedes - a tool for performing MitM attacks
ᗙ AfterMidnight and Assassin - malware frameworks for Windows
ᗙ Athena - a malware framework co-developed with a US company
ᗙ Pandemic - a tool for replacing legitimate files with malware
ᗙ CherryBlossom - a tool for hacking SOHO WiFi routers
ᗙ Brutal Kangaroo - a tool for hacking air-gapped networks
ᗙ ELSA - malware for geo-tracking Windows users
ᗙ OutlawCountry - CIA tool for hacking Linux systems
ᗙ BothanSpy & Gyrfalcon - CIA malware for stealing SSH logins
ᗙ HighRise - Android app for intercepting & redirecting SMS data
ᗙ Achilles, Aeris, & SeaPea - tools for hacking Mac & POSIX systems
ᗙ Dumbo - tool to disable webcams and microphones
ᗙ CouchPotato - tool to capture remote video streams
ᗙ Angelfire - malware framework for hacking Windows PCs
The CIA does some scary things, but I doubt that leaking source code for those scary things is a good idea.
