MARBLE MAN has engaged in an habitual pattern of abuse:
1. Deliberately reposting an add-on that he knew had code injection vulnerabilities, possibly so he could exploit them. (thread deleted)
2.
Creating and abusing an advanced impersonation script3.
Abusing admin/eval to add tcp backdoors to servers - My "I told you so"
post4.
Automatically banning people for their ID numberThere is probably more, but this is enough. I am deactivating his keys and will deactivate him again on sight. Unfortunately, marble man is another one of these clowns who has access to 10 keys for some reason. Here's a recap of his keys that have
already been deactivated:
- 10103 - deactivated for impersonation script, cciamlazy association
- 29135 - compromised key, reported by nobot
- 39712 - deactivated for spamming/flooding servers, purchased by marble, given to dotdotcircle
- 42809 - bogus purchase, bug in amazon purchase handling
And here's the
new deactivations:
- 10188
- 39714
- 40363 - Note: Used by forum account Titanium Man, banned 6 times
- 41810
- 43420 - Primary "MARBLE MAN" account, associated with this steam profile
- 43421
All of these have multiple connections to him via payment info, IP usage, etc. I'm sure some of them are his friends of family members, but keys have to be considered compromised.
Given his dedication to the craft of being an ass on the internet, this probably isn't over.
Expect retaliation in the following forms:
- Spam / Flooding
- Malicious add-ons - either with back doors or that provide abusive features (or both!)
- Social engineering attacks - He associates with people who are known to conduct phishing attacks. He has exploited people's trust to plant back doors in their server. He'll have no moral issue with this kind of attack.
