‘Heh’ Botnet Targets Telnet on IoT Devices

Researchers say they’ve spotted a new IoT botnet that targets telnet on routers and other devices. The Heh botnet is written in the Go programming language. It briefly displays the U.N. Universal Declaration of Human Rights and is coded to display it in eight languages. Heh uses a password dictionary with 171 usernames and 504 passwords to try to take over devices, such as routers, running telnet. The botnet code, however, is far from refined, Netlab says.”]
