North Korea Hacked Him. So He Took Down Its Internet
WIRED
FOR THE PAST two weeks, observers of North Korea’s strange and tightly restricted corner of the internet
began to notice that the country seemed to be dealing with some serious connectivity problems.
On several different days, practically all of its websites
—the notoriously isolated nation only has a few dozen—
intermittently dropped offline en masse, from the booking site for its Air Koryo airline to Naenara, a page that serves as the official portal for dictator Kim Jong-un’s government.
At least one of the central routers that allow access to the country’s networks appeared at one point to be paralyzed,
crippling the Hermit Kingdom’s digital connections to the outside world.
Some North Korea watchers pointed out
that the country had just carried out a series of missile tests, implying that a foreign government’s hackers might have launched a cyberattack against the rogue state to tell it to stop saber-rattling.
But responsibility for North Korea’s ongoing internet outages doesn’t lie with US Cyber Command or any other state-sponsored hacking agency.
In fact, it was the work of one American man in a T-shirt, pajama pants, and slippers, sitting in his living room night after night, watching Alien movies and eating spicy corn snacks
—and periodically walking over to his home office to check on the progress of the programs he was running to disrupt the internet of an entire country.
P4x says he’s found numerous known but unpatched vulnerabilities in North Korean systems
that have allowed him to singlehandedly launch “denial-of-service” attacks on the servers and routers the country’s few internet-connected networks depend on.
For the most part,
he declined to publicly reveal those vulnerabilities, which he argues would help the North Korean government defend against his attacks.But he named, as an example, a known bug in the web server software NginX that mishandles certain HTTP headers,
allowing the servers that run the software to be overwhelmed and knocked offline.
He also alluded to finding “ancient” versions of the web server software Apache,
and says he’s started to examine North Korea’s own national homebrew operating system, known as Red Star OS, which he described as an old and likely vulnerable version of Linux.
