Oldies but goodies.
Is this why Assange is still in the Embassy? He let the cat out of the bag and Snowden, via the CIA fired back at the NSA for letting their dirty secrets out?
CIA "Weapons" Let Hackers Use Your Computer, Phone, & TV to Spy on You
With the WikiLeaks disclosures Tuesday about the hacking capabilities of the CIA, it is now known that the agency can hack at least on par with the NSA and with even less accountability. One element of that is the ability to remotely access devices — such as computers, mobile devices, and televisions — to watch and listen to targets. Of course, since the CIA has lost control over its hacking tools, others now have that same ability.

Wikileaks spills the beans on the CIA's Angelfire hacking toolset
JULIAN ASSANGE'S LEAKY HOBBY SITE Wikileaks has crashed a US Central Intelligence Agency party and spilled all there is to know about a hacking toolset called Angelfire that the agency uses, but probably does not want you to know about.

Wikileaks gets hacked on the same day it dumps CIA hacking tools data
In a supreme bit of irony, Wikileaks has been hacked on the same day it dumped data on a number of Central Intelligence Agency hacking tools.
The data dump, part of Wikileaks’ Vault7 release series of secret government hacking tools, unveiled a CIA program called Angelfire. It consists of a five-part framework that can be used to maintain a persistent backdoor on an infected machine and install custom software on the same machine should the agency require it.
According to a statement from Wikileaks, the five Angelfire components, named Solartime, Wolfcreek, Keystone, BadMFS and the Windows Transitory File system, deliver a variety of functions to the CIA. Solartime modifies the partition boot sector of the machine, allowing Wolfcreek to load and execute implants. Keystone then loads malicious user applications on the targeted computers, while BadMFS and the Windows Transitory File system deliver alternative methods of access. In all cases, the hacking software has been designed to be undetectable by the victim.
Having disclosed a new CIA hacking tool, Wikileaks itself was then hacked by the folks at the sometimes amusing, always strange hacking group OurMine. They’re the same people behind the hacking of Facebook Inc. Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg, Google Inc. CEO Sundar Pichai, Oculus CEO Brendan Iribe, a number of YouTube stars and most recently the PlayStation Network.
