TuxBot v3 is a modular, AI-assisted IoT botnet that cross-compiles agents for 17 architectures, brute-forces Telnet with an extensive credential list, provides a DDoS-for-hire control panel and exploit framework, and has active samples and command-and-control infrastructure observed in telemetry; many features were broken by LLM-generated bugs but fixes could already exist in the wild, increasing operational risk.
