The hacker group Chaotic Eclipse, also known as Nightmare-Eclipse, has released two new Windows exploits called YellowKey and GreenPlasma. >YellowKey bypasses BitLocker encryption on Windows 11 and newer server versions by copying a special folder to a USB drive or the EFI partition and then rebooting while holding certain keys to gain full access to the locked drive. >GreenPlasma lets users gain higher system access through a CTFMON method that affects Windows 11 and some servers, with only part of the code shared as a challenge for others. In a signed blog post, the group warned Microsoft directly that the next Patch Tuesday will have a big surprise for them. They said they have never failed to deliver on a promise, noted their unhappiness with how Microsoft handled their past reports, and chose not to target Defender this time.
