Stuxnet Source Code Replicated and Posted on GitHub, TechRadar Reports
TechRadar says the source code of the notorious Stuxnet malware has been copied and published on GitHub, but its report provides no further details on the upload.
According to TechRadar's headline, the material is now publicly available on GitHub. The article text available with the report, however, consists of a biography of Rahim Amir, a UAE-based technology writer who has contributed to TechRadar, Game Rant and financial news websites. That biography describes his work on PC hardware, gaming, reviews and sponsored content, not the Stuxnet code or its publication.
The report does not name the GitHub repository, the person or group that replicated the code, or any verification that the posted material is complete or functional. It also does not say whether GitHub has taken any action, whether the code has been downloaded or copied further, or what prompted the replication. No independent confirmation of the GitHub posting was included in the available source material.
Stuxnet is identified in the TechRadar headline as notorious malware, but the source material provided does not describe its origins, targets or technical operation. The report therefore establishes only the claim that its source code has been replicated and posted publicly on GitHub, with TechRadar as the single source for that claim.
