Hmm. Have they released which government(s) were targeted yet? If it's in the article I didn't see it

This is an ad. Still interesting though. It doesn't show how the attackers gained access but it does show what they got up to. The fake sudo script is actually pretty smart. Don't know why the LLM was writing it's thinking as comments though.

The Australian government did get hacked a few months ago by OpenAI so this type of thing is definitely going on.

Just highlights the importance of good security practices.
