OTX Bot<p>Analysis of the latest Mirai wave exploiting TBK DVR devices with CVE-2024-3721</p><p>A new wave of Mirai botnet attacks is exploiting CVE-2024-3721 to target TBK DVR devices. The campaign uses a POST request to execute system commands without authorization, downloading and running an ARM32 binary. This Mirai variant includes features like RC4 string encryption, anti-VM checks, and anti-emulation techniques. The malware verifies if it's running in a virtual environment and checks for allowed directories. Infected devices are primarily located in China, India, Egypt, Ukraine, Russia, Turkey, and Brazil. Over 50,000 exposed DVR devices are potentially vulnerable. The botnet's main goal is to conduct DDoS attacks. Updating vulnerable devices and performing factory resets are recommended as protective measures.</p><p>Pulse ID: 6842e2da7eafc4bf38554913<br>Pulse Link: <a href="https://otx.alienvault.com/pulse/6842e2da7eafc4bf38554913" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">otx.alienvault.com/pulse/6842e</span><span class="invisible">2da7eafc4bf38554913</span></a> <br>Pulse Author: AlienVault<br>Created: 2025-06-06 12:45:14</p><p>Be advised, this data is unverified and should be considered preliminary.

OTX Bot<p>Operation Endgame 2.0</p><p>International law enforcement agencies have taken additional actions in Operation Endgame, targeting cybercriminal organizations, particularly those behind DanaBot. DanaBot is a powerful modular malware family written in Delphi, capable of keylogging, capturing screenshots, recording desktop videos, exfiltrating files, injecting content into web browsers, and deploying second-stage malware. It operates as a Malware-as-a-Service platform, enabling various attacks. DanaBot has been used in targeted attacks against government officials in the Middle East and Eastern Europe, and for DDoS attacks against Ukrainian servers. The malware implements a custom binary protocol encrypted with RSA and AES, and uses hardcoded C2 servers with Tor as a backup communication channel. Over 50 nicknames have been associated with DanaBot affiliates.</p><p>Pulse ID: 683046e8073360953a9307d2<br>Pulse Link: <a href="https://otx.alienvault.com/pulse/683046e8073360953a9307d2" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">otx.alienvault.com/pulse/68304</span><span class="invisible">6e8073360953a9307d2</span></a> <br>Pulse Author: AlienVault<br>Created: 2025-05-23 09:59:04</p><p>Be advised, this data is unverified and should be considered preliminary.
