AVrecon


AVrecon is a Linux-based Remote Access Trojan (RAT) targeting small-office/home-office (SOHO) routers and other ARM-embedded devices. The malware is distributed via exploitation of unpatched vulnerabilities or common misconfiguration of the targeted devices. Once deployed, AVreckon will collect some information about the infected device, open a session to pre-configured C&C server, and spawn a remote shell for command execution. It might also download additional arbitrary files and run them. The malware has recently been used in campaigns aimed at ad-fraud activities, password spraying and data exfiltration.
