Someone created a bunch of github profiles impersonating real researchers alongside fake Twitter accounts. Pretty fascinating, really.

huh, this is weird. one would think people would use separate machines / vms to test zero day exploits, not their main machines.

They’re not even that stealthy. The code is bullshit, gitignore folder is super suspicious and malware is just a binary within the zip file. Clearly meant for script kiddies.
