All Aboard the Raptor Train
Lumen Technologies has found a network of small office/home office and IoT devices, such as routers, NVR/DVR devices, network attached storage servers, and IP cameras that were compromised by Flax Typhoon, a Chinese-backed hacker group. As many as 60,000 devices were able to perform exploit management, remote management of C2 infrastructure, file uploads and downloads, remote command execution, and the ability to tailor IoT-based distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks at-scale.
