Ah, I see, Bloomberg. So instead of a (partial) retraction of your at least half if not fully bullshit China implant story, you're going to now publish *one guy's* claim of Ethernet jack implants. When you had <5 days to check anything he provided.

Remember when a certain other security researcher was convinced his Ethernet jacks had implants? Remember all this "evidence"? How *we* knew it was BS? Now consider whether Bloomberg's technically clueless journalists would know it's BS.

Seriously, this is just pathetic now. They just went from "1 year and multiple sources" to "<5 days and one guy". This is just negligence. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-10-09/new-evidence-of-hacked-supermicro-hardware-found-in-u-s-telecom …

Why is it that every time something like this happens nobody has any hard documentation or analysis results? Ah yes, the best cop-out. "We don't have it any more, we can't give you more details".pic.twitter.com/EooD0aIVyR

So now we have *software* detecting *analog* stuff like the "power consumption" of a *network*. None of those words go together. At all.pic.twitter.com/h0W0R8cI7L

Basically every Ethernet jack I've seen in anything but cheapo consumer routers/switches has been metal. How the hell is this an IOC?pic.twitter.com/1LG7tBe9MW

Nevermind that... Ethernet jacks don't have power pins. Where is this module (that uses so much power that it gets hot) magically powering itself from? Nobody runs PoE out to servers. Did they modify the board design to add power pins too?

Replying to @russss
A quick Google suggests Supermicro servers do sometimes have those, apparently often on the IPMI LAN port. So, sure, they could do it on *that subset* specifically...pic.twitter.com/pwPQ3ueze3

Makes way more sense to just go after the BMC in a pure software implant. That has USB, PCIe, video, Ethernet, *everything*.
