174 Vulnerabilities Targeted by RondoDox Botnet
The RondoDox botnet has significantly expanded its exploitation capabilities to target 174 vulnerabilities, up from 56 in October, and shifted from indiscriminate 'shotgun' attacks to a more targeted approach. The botnet peaks at 15,000 exploitation attempts per day, with operators closely monitoring vulnerability disclosures and exploiting bugs before CVEs are assigned. RondoDox primarily targets weak credentials and unsanitized inputs, focusing on launching DDoS attacks rather than propagating like traditional botnets such as Mirai.
