Did You Know In THE MATRIX RELOADED…
The scene involving disabling a power grid by Carrie Anne Moss’s Trinity had legitimate hacking in action! She ran “Nmap,” a widely-used freeware hacking tool that sends packets to a machine or network of machines in an attempt to determine what services are running. Essentially, a Nmap port scan functions as a way of figuring out whether a system has any vulnerabilities to exploit. This is exactly how Trinity used it too, as her computer clearly shows Nmap being run against the IP address 10.2.2.2. and finding open port number 22. She then summoned a program called “sshnuke,” which began “attempting to exploit SSHv1 CRC32,” an exploit that was first uncovered in February 2001 by security analyst Michal Zalewski. Despite some errors, such as changing the text of Nmap's output to fit the screen better, hackers praised this scene for getting the hacking right.
