BadUSB, a critical security flaw detected in July, can be abused by hackers using practically any USB device. This massive security problem is now on the loose as experts have published its code online.
The threat was first revealed in August by Karsten Nohl at the Black Hat cybersecurity conference. Nohl demonstrated how BadUSB can corrupt any USB device with malware that is both deadly and undetectable.
