Just in case you missed it: The Shadow Brokers has published a rant and the password for their tool dump.

Password for c&p is:

(thanks to @kript3ia for reminding me)

For someone definitely active in the 90s this Equation Group dump is exactly as described by @osxreverser: a trip down memory lane.

There's exploits for Apache running on Linux for DEC Alpha, Netscape Enterprise Server, RedHat 5.x and stuff that you probably haven't heard except in "greybeard's storytime".

If you wander over to the birdsite @osxreverser is posting headers of all the interesting exploits he finds.

There is also an OpenSSH one (KWIKEMART): https://twitter.com/osxreverser/status/850678952138067969

# KWIKEMART
###################################3
# SSH-1.5-1.2.27
# SSH-1.5-OpenSSH-1.2.3
# SSH-1.99-OpenSSH_2.1.1
# SSH-1.99-OpenSSH_2.2.0

So, KWIKEMART, in /bin/km (not found source yet) has pearls such as the following in its strings:

echo CHRIS CHRIS
No Crash, might have worked
Reply from remote: %s
CHRIS
No Chris not found and since we can't live without her .. searching on
error on read, continuing

It looks suspiciously like we might have to RE them all to find out if the holes are all patched...

Oh, this is interesting (but expected):

#######################################
### ELITEHAMMER

### Runs against RedFlag Webmail 4 (software install)
### Gives you user nobody, not root;
### Need a local to get root (EVENTSTART or ELASTICBANJO?)
### Webmail port is usually 80 or 443

For ref: Red Flag Linux is a, now defunct, Chinese distribution (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Flag_Linux)

Another adorable "from the past" entry, interesting choice of name (CICADA, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cicada_3301 and engage your conspiracy theories):

#########################################################
# ELVISCICADA
#########################################################
### only up to ealry Sol2.9; Sol2.10 not vulnerable

### snmpXdmid (/usr/lib/dmi/dmispd) daemon program (RPC program 300598 version 1)

A little bit of "obvious" is that they have a remote backdoor called NOPEN... I have not seen it mentioned yet but basically almost every tool's aim is to drop NOPEN.
@cynicalsecurity it was released in one of the earlier dumps. Everything they hack uses nopen and nopen binary was dropped. Basically you could take over the internet for about 6hrs.

@thegrugq yes, I was only documenting for those who had not followed the drama from day zero.

I have to say this dump is almost certainly telco-related and also gives several locations (as also mentioned by @esizkur on the birdsite).

The reference to a Pakistani telco is interesting given the approximate time window for this kit, it also looks almost certainly like an advanced staging system.

The SCADA stuff I want to check a little more...
