Orqa drone goggles bricked: Time-bomb ransomware or unpaid firmware license?
"If you plan a ransomware attack, but instead of calling your ransom 'ransom' you call it a 'license,' your ransomware time-bomb attack, all of a sudden, stops being crime," the announcement continued. By that Orqa is referring to the contractor in question insisting no time-bomb was placed in the bootloader, and no ransom is demanded, and is instead asking for a license renewal payment for the code they provided.
While Swarg has offered its own firmware for people to use to keep their devices running until July, Orqa urged folks not to install the unofficial code and to wait for an official update, which restores headset operations, to be released shortly. This update is said by Orqa to have undergone testing.
That said, Swarg believed it won't be easy for Orqa to address the issue, because, as the contractor put it:The binary firmware and update files are encrypted with a custom 1kB block encryption that runs on a GPU part for which there is no disassembly tool to reverse engineer the code! The provided tools by SWARG for firmware and update generation don't provide all aspects of the code capability.
In the meantime, we suggest taking Orqa's advice:"Hold tight and get your popcorn, 'cause you're not going to believe how crazy this sh*t is." ®
