Wild conspiracy theory time: could be related to the fortinet exploit. I know the TPN have been losing their shit over that one, and it's widely used. Would have to have a lot of moving pieces lining up, and people explicitly wanting to break into mastering houses to steal movies, which is a bit over the goddamn top, but hey, fun times.
Got more info on this?
A critical vulnerability (CVE-2024-47575) has been discovered in Fortinet's FortiManager, and it is currently being actively exploited. This vulnerability allows attackers to bypass API authentication, enabling them to execute commands remotely and compromise managed devices. FortiManager is commonly used by organizations to manage multiple FortiGate firewalls, making this vulnerability especially dangerous for enterprises and Managed Service Providers (MSPs).
TPN = Trusted Partner Network. Basically a big pile of wank that offers to make sure anyone handling content pretends to adhere to good IT practices and security so shit doesn't get stolen
