ChaoticEclipse drops new "YellowKey" bypass for Windows "BitLocker" disk encryption drops

Tom's Hardware article on the matter. And here is the hacker's blog.

This person has a vendetta against Microsoft? And has been dropping some serious zero days. This post is of interest for the short contents and the top reply two months later, when the YellowKey bypass drop:

I never wanted to reopen a blog and a new github account to drop code...

But someone violated our agreement and left me homeless with nothing. They knew this will happen and they still stabbed me in the back anyways, this is their decision not mine.

You’re a smart guy. Maybe a savant. Just wondering if you’re BiPolar (like me) and see a different reality than what is real. Been there.

If you take this comment the wrong way, don’t hack me. It would be way too easy for you anyway, not worth your time.

Just want to let you know that I hope life works out for you.

The NSA is probably interested and reach out to you. I would recommend that you get treated for BiPolar and be normal again so that you can work for them.

Such a brilliant mind shouldn’t go to waste.

I’m a computer guy. Can’t work anymore after my brain got fried from working in a very stressful situation.

The bitlocker hack had an easier route. The hash key is stored in a disk location. That is how you even boot into a working environment.

Very strange comment!

Anyways, so far they have dropped:

• BlueHammer, a LPE
• UnDefend, which disables Microsoft Defender
• RedSun, another LPE
• GreenPlasma,
• YellowKey, the cool new one which allows an attacker with physical access to completely bypass disk encryption. The developer says this looks like a backdoor. Anyways, this is a big one, what the hell
