Hello, This is a complete account of the events, statements, attack techniques and actual tools used in the recent attacks against CNN.com on behalf of Chinese hacktivists. http://ddanchev.blogspot.com/2008/04/ddos-attack-against-cnncom.html http://ddanchev.blogspot.com/2008/04/chinese-hacktivists-waging-peoples.html Regards -- Dancho Danchev Cyber Threats Analyst/Blogger http://ddanchev.blogspot.com http://windowsecurity.com/Dancho_Danchev _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.

- Nothing actually happened to CNN.com, there was no downtime. A few servers probably got hit, but thats normal run of the mill for multi nationals. - Mentioning Estonia is like making a connection between Saddam Hussein and 9/11. - We don't actually know if its Chinese attacks or people using chinese planted evidence. Are the U.S government capable of this? They need funding for cyber this, cyber that right now so it wouldn't suprise me if someone was trying to infulence the white house guys into signing more stuff. - I heard Bush and Cheney watch CNN all the time, perfect way to get their attention. Bush: Hey man, "the CNN" is down. Cheney: Sign more shit quick! - Bush has already signed for the U.S Cyber Command, so it makes sense to drop Estonia into the propaganda when mentioning CNN.com, as Estonia is the reason they gave to Bush for signing for U.S Cyber Command in the first place. - So if the Estonia plot worked to get Bush to sign up to the U.S Cyber Command, then mentioning Estonia into something completely unrelated (Don't tell Bush that!) might nudge things in favour of more shit getting signed by Bush. All the best with the blogging, whoever paid you to post this on FD... but please don't compare a failed CNN attack to Estonia (again!) i'll just laugh some more and throw your e-mail into the trash. Oh, he mentioned Electronic Jihad as well, thats gonna get Bush stirred. Chinese people don't do "Jihad"... (Don't tell Bush that!) And the thing is, Securityfocus actually write up news reports on his blogging activites all the time, me scared? n3td3v _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
