WikiLeaks has released Vault 7 Part 1 "Year Zero": Inside the CIA's global hacking force.

http://www.news.com.au/technology/online/hacking/wikileaks-releases-thousands-of-cia-documents/news-story/2b6e15b95687ed4c77bb1b930670aa33

The more than 8000 documents cover a host of technical topics, including what appears to be a discussion about how to compromise smart televisions and turn them into improvised surveillance devices.

WikiLeaks said the data also include details on the agency’s efforts to subvert American software products and smartphones, including Apple’s iPhone, Google’s Android and Microsoft Windows.

Cheers.
