Detection & IOCsextracted from sources · hover to see the quote
- →Detect HTTP POST requests to moadmin.php containing shell metacharacters or PHP code injection patterns in the 'object' POST parameter (e.g., semicolons followed by system/exec calls). ↗
- →The vulnerability is triggered when the 'object' POST parameter is passed to eval() without sanitization; monitor for eval() execution paths in moadmin.php originating from POST data. ↗
- →The exploit module targets the multi/http path; look for unauthenticated POST requests to moadmin.php from external IPs with non-trivial 'object' parameter values. ↗
- ·The vulnerable code path is only reachable when the HTTP POST parameter 'object' is set; exploitation does not require any prior authentication or session. ↗
- ·The affected version is specifically phpMoAdmin 1.1.2; confirm version before applying detections to avoid false positives on patched deployments. ↗

Unlike other Mirai variants, this particular variant stands out for the sheer number of exploits it incorporates, with the latest version having a total of 71 unique exploits, 13 of which haven’t been seen exploited in the wild until now, ranging from extremely old CVEs from as long back as 2003, to recent vulnerabilities made public as recently as early December 2019. Based on this seemingly odd choice, one could risk a guess that the attackers could potentially be aiming for the sweet sp
