8 | The Chaos Computer Club (CCC) has recently received a newer version of the "Staatstrojaner", a government spyware. The comparison with the older version, already analyzed by the CCC with the actual Sniffer-code from December 2010, revealed new evidence. Despite the claims of the responsible parties, the trojan can still be captured, loaded with any code and also the allegedly "audit trail" can be manipulated. The CCC is calling for a complete waiver of Trojans in pre-trial applications. | 8 | The Chaos Computer Club (CCC) has recently received a newer version of the "Staatstrojaner", a government spyware. The comparison with the older version, already analyzed by the CCC with the actual Sniffer-code from December 2010, revealed new evidence. Despite the claims of the responsible parties, the Trojan can still be remote-controlled, loaded with any code and also the allegedly "revision-proof logging" can be manipulated. The CCC is calling for a complete waiver of Trojans in pre-trial investigations. |
