AndoryuBot Botnet Leverages RCE Bug in Ruckus Wireless Access Points

Wired and wireless networking equipment maker Ruckus was targeted by a DDoS botnet threat named AndoryuBot that has been exploiting a recently patched bug in Ruckus access points (APs). Upon infection, the botnet rapidly propagates and initiates communication with its command-and-control (C2) server using the SOCKS protocol.
