Interestingly, @GossiTheDog was pretty on top of this in December weeks before Notepad++ formally disclosed. I agree with the assessment that, while Notepad++’s update situation was a little shaky, fundamentally it wasn’t gross negligence on their part but attracting powerful attention. (The […]

lol, another plaintext file is what looks like the src for the firmware signer for this TPM, with three ECC private keys hardcoded (two are commented out)
