From where I’m standing, this TikTok account looks and behaves likes a Kremlin bot/troll account.

Note the zero likes, a few stolen posts. Some UK far right content. Some random stuff.. It’s been in circulation for a while but definitely not organic.

But have a look at the view counts!! It’s no small botnet the Kremlin is running! 😮

This is what we’re up against. They’re at war against us and this is the internet equivalent of a russian fpv drone.

Google Sues the Badbox Botnet Operators

These devices lack Google’s security protections, and the perpetrators pre-installed the Badbox 2.0 malware on them, to create a backdoor and abuse them for large-scale fraud and other illicit schemes. This reminds me of Meta’s lawauit against Pegasus over its hack-for-hire software (which I wrote about ...

Schneier on Security · AI Data Poisoning - Schneier on SecurityCloudflare has a new feature—available to free users as well—that uses AI to generate random pages to feed to AI web crawlers: Instead of simply blocking bots, Cloudflare’s new system lures them into a “maze” of realistic-looking but irrelevant pages, wasting the crawler’s computing resources. The approach is a notable shift from the standard block-and-defend strategy used by most website protection services. Cloudflare says blocking bots sometimes backfires because it alerts the crawler’s operators that they’ve been detected. “When we detect unauthorized crawling, rather than blocking the request, we will link to a series of AI-generated pages that are convincing enough to entice a crawler to traverse them,” writes Cloudflare. “But while real looking, this content is not actually the content of the site we are protecting, so the crawler wastes time and resources.”...

Schneier on Security · TP-Link Router Botnet - Schneier on SecurityThere is a new botnet that is infecting TP-Link routers: The botnet can lead to command injection which then makes remote code execution (RCE) possible so that the malware can spread itself across the internet automatically. This high severity security flaw (tracked as CVE-2023-1389) has also been used to spread other malware families as far back as April 2023 when it was used in the Mirai botnet malware attacks. The flaw also linked to the Condi and AndroxGh0st malware attacks. […] Of the thousands of infected devices, the majority of them are concentrated in Brazil, Poland, the United Kingdom, Bulgaria and Turkey; with the botnet targeting manufacturing, medical/healthcare, services and technology organizations in the United States, Australia, China and Mexico...
