The Murdoc Botnet, a new variant of the Mirai malware, has been actively exploiting vulnerabilities in AVTECH IP cameras and Huawei HG532 routers. Infecting over 1300 systems, with a notable presence in Malaysia, Thailand, Mexico, and Indonesia, the botnet uses older exploits like CVE-2024-7029 and CVE-2017-17215. The campaign is significant, with 100 servers found distributing malware and compromising IP communication. It employs command-line injections to load malicious ShellScripts on IoT devices, enlarging its network through C2 servers.
