The Trend Zero Day Initiative (ZDI) Threat Hunting and Trend Research teams have identified a significant RondoDox botnet campaign that targets a wide range of internet-exposed infrastructure.
This campaign consists of over 50 exploits, including unpatched router flaws across over 30 vendors, targeting vulnerabilities found in routers, digital video recorders (DVRs), network video recorders (NVRs), CCTV systems, web servers, and various other network devices. While the exploits specifically exploit vulnerabilities in routers, DVRs, NVRs, CCTV systems, web servers, and networking equipment, the latest RondoDox campaign uses an “exploit shotgun”, using multiple exploits and seeing what hits.
