Moderators hazelnut Posted March 14, 2017 Moderators Share Posted March 14, 2017 Following on from the Wikileaks recent documents, Portable Apps have today released 14.4 Over the past few days, Wikileaks posted a series of documents purported to be from the CIA in a dump of files dubbed "Vault 7". Within those documents are references to a project called "Fine Dining" which details how a field agent can alter their own software on a portable device to include additional functionality to enable spying and other covert activities while appearing innocuous to those who happen to see the agent using their portable software. The list of affected software includes VLC Player Portable, Irfan View, Chrome, Opera, Firefox, ClamWin, Kaspersky TDSS Killer, McAfee Stinger, Sophos Virus Removal Tool, Thunderbird, Opera Mail, Foxit Reader, Libre Office Portable, Prezi, Babel Pad, Notepad++, Skype, Iperius Backup, Sandisk Secure Access, U3 Software, 2048, LBreakout2, 7-Zip Portable and Portable Linux CMD Prompt. Some PortableApps.com Launchers are also affected by these techniques http://portableapps.com/news/2017-03-13--mitigating-dll-hijacks-with-the-portableapps-com-platform 14.4 download http://portableapps.com/download Support contact https://support.ccleaner.com/s/contact-form?language=en_US&form=general or support@ccleaner.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
login123 Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Wow, that list covers a lot of territory. The CCleaner SLIM version is always released a bit after any new version; when it is it will be HERE :-) Pssssst: ... It isn't really a cloud. Its a bunch of big, giant servers.

Moderators Andavari Posted March 18, 2017 Moderators Share Posted March 18, 2017 So they've updated the Platform, however I don't see any updates to the portable software itself unless I'm reading everything wrong and the vulnerability was only in the Platform itself.
