On March 17th 2017 Cisco Systems disclosed a vulnerability present in their switches. This disclosure was based on the documents from Vault 7

Vault 7 CIA leak
A series of CIA’s documents were leaked on March 7th 2017 and published on WikiLeaks. Among other publications there was an interesting preauth code execution vulnerability that affected multiple Cisco switches. This vulnerability is code-named ROCEM in the leaked documents. Although very few technical details were mentioned, few things stand out.

The Vault 7’s documents shed a light on the testing process for the actual exploit. No exploit source code is available in the leak. Two use cases are highlighted there - the tool can be launched in either interactive mode or set mode. The interactive mode sends the payload via telnet and immediately presents the attacker with command shell in the context of the same telnet connection.

Nice info, I like your user name and content so I'll be following. Why doesnt Wikileaks set up their site on blockchain and sell a "wikicoin" to crowd fund operations?? Id certainly support it I think Assange does great work for the good of humanity!
