The Chinese Embassy in Washington did not respond to requests for comment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-paragraph-2Bgue ArticleBody-para-TD_9x\">A person familiar with the matter said Lockheed Martin Corp \u2013 which is credited as having identified the vulnerability exploited by Jian in 2017 \u2013 discovered it on the network of an unidentified third party.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-paragraph-2Bgue ArticleBody-para-TD_9x\">In a statement, Lockheed said it \u201croutinely evaluates third-party software and technologies to identify vulnerabilities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-paragraph-2Bgue ArticleBody-para-TD_9x\">Countries around the world develop malware that breaks into their rivals\u2019 devices by taking advantage of flaws in the software that runs them. Every time spies discover a new flaw they must decide whether to quietly exploit it or fix the issue to thwart rivals and rogues.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-paragraph-2Bgue ArticleBody-para-TD_9x\">That dilemma came to public attention between 2016 and 2017, when a mysterious group calling itself the \u201cShadow Brokers\u201d published some of the NSA\u2019s most dangerous code to the internet, allowing cybercriminals and rival nations to add American-made digital break-in tools to their own arsenals.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-paragraph-2Bgue ArticleBody-para-TD_9x\">How the Jian malware analyzed by Checkpoint was used is not clear. In an advisory published in 2017, Microsoft Corp suggested it was linked to a Chinese entity it dubs \u201cZirconium,\u201d which last year was accused of targeting U.S. election-related organizations and individuals, including people associated with President Joe Biden\u2019s campaign.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-paragraph-2Bgue ArticleBody-para-TD_9x\">Checkpoint says Jian appears to have been crafted in 2014, at least two years before the Shadow Brokers made their public debut. That, in conjunction with research published in 2019 by Broadcom Inc-owned cybersecurity firm Symantec about a similar incident, suggests the NSA has repeatedly lost control of its own malware over the years.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-paragraph-2Bgue ArticleBody-para-TD_9x\">Checkpoint\u2019s research is thorough and \u201clooks legit,\u201d said Costin Raiu, a researcher with Moscow-based antivirus firm Kaspersky Lab, which has helped dissect some of the NSA\u2019s malware.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-paragraph-2Bgue ArticleBody-para-TD_9x\">Balmas said a possible takeaway from his company\u2019s report was for spymasters weighing whether to keep software flaws secret to think twice about using a vulnerability for their own ends.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-paragraph-2Bgue ArticleBody-para-TD_9x\">\u201cMaybe it\u2019s more important to patch this thing and save the world,\u201d Balmas said. \u201cIt might be used against you.\u201d<\/p>\n<div
