CYDOME FLAGS MIRAI VARIANT BROADSIDE, TARGETS MARITIME LOGISTICS THROUGH TBK DVR DEVICES
Summary from the TLDR InfoSec newsletter
A Mirai variant named Broadside is actively compromising maritime logistics systems by exploiting a vulnerability in TBK digital video recorder (DVR) devices. Broadside uses a custom C2 protocol, a unique “Magic Header,” and aggressively kills competing malware. Beyond DDoS capabilities, it can harvest system credentials, posing an elevated risk to operational technology environments.
