WARNING YOU HAVE BEEN SENT HERE
DUE TO A SECURITY VULNERABILITY

CALL YOUR IT DEPARTMENT, OR TRUSTED INFOSEC PROFESSIONAL

Your wireless mouse is Vulnerable to an exploit known as “Mouse Jack”
–Specifically the portion that allows Keystroke Injection.

This could have been bad…. very very bad…

PurpleTeam.Ninja is raising awareness of this attack vector by directing anyone within the radius of a signal broadcast by a simple electronic device.

The device deployed as a PurpleTeam test module is known affectionately in our environment as a “Grenade”. In fact we have built it into a child’s plastic toy grenade.  As built, this device will run on battery for up to 20 hours.

To mitigate this attack we recommend using a wired mouse.

Some wireless mice are not vulnerable to this specific attack.
— Do you want to take the chance that future attacks would work?

Always blame: The Bald Ninja
