I wanted to address this issue that was shared today by the owner of bolt
In this announcement, the owner Sam01 basically stated that someone had swapt the Bolt install link, with one that installed a crypto addy changer and a webcam accessor program from a github
repository.
Naturally me along with other people in the server got scared as our privacy is non existant if this is the case, as people could be looking
through our webcams. I decided to investigate this for myself and ran the program through VirusTotal.
Which got me these results :
If you wish to check out the virustotal yourselves then here is the link - https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file...0ef5e7ece90024f922785ee516746cf749f/detection
From this picture/analysis we can see that there are 2 types of keyloggers, A Trojan gen, A Trojan virus, and many more viruses and Trojans.
There was a detection rate of 40/71, personally this is concerning.
I am NOT for whatever reason pointing fingers at anyone, for all I know Sam01 could be saying the truth. But what I do know is that something isn't right.
Now I leave it to you if you believe bolt is safe to purchase and use, I just wanted to Let everyone know to
STAY SAFE
now if anyone wants to decompile bolt and either prove me correct, wrong or just inform others, then here is the install link - https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/746730769094934600/759118159931768892/boltkeker.exe
thanks for your time I just wanted to let everyone know
