To conduct this investigation, a CyberNews researcher infiltrated an IRC botnet that we captured in one of our honeypots. Our honeypot setup. In cybersecurity terms, a honeypot is a decoy service or system that poses as a target for malicious actors. Here’s how it all happened. About this investigation.

The code by Scarface targets devices on a different port, 8083 though( justifying why our NewSky honeypots are seeing a surge of this vulnerability usage on port 8083 instead of the standard 80/8080 ports). It is, however, not the only difference. Backdooring rival IoT botnet operator can have several purposes.
