RondoDox Botnet: an 'Exploit Shotgun' for Edge Vulns

Trend Micro reports a rapidly spreading botnet named RondoDox that uses a 'shotgun' approach to exploit 56 known vulnerabilities—primarily command injection flaws—in unmanaged consumer and edge devices (routers, DVRs, NVRs, CCTV, etc.), doubles as a loader for Mirai and Morte IoT malware, and has expanded widely since May due to the prevalence of unpatched devices and consumer reluctance or inability to apply updates.
