A new variant of Echobot botnet has been spotted to include over 50 exploits leading to remote code execution (RCE) vulnerabilities in various Internet-of-Things devices. The latest variant was found by security researcher Carlos Brendel Alca..iz, and uses 59 different RCE exploits to propagate. The malware is one of the hundreds of spin-offs from Mirai botnet, whose code is publicly available. The code incorporated is available from multiple public exploit repositories. The list of payloads compiled shows that the operator relies on known exploits, some as old as 2010.
