Trusted DesignA new version of the Kimwolf Android/IoT botnet has been identified, targeting Android TV boxes and set-top boxes. The version 7 variant introduces enhanced DDoS capabilities including HTTP/2-based floods with complete browser fingerprinting to mimic legitimate traffic. It employs a resilient three-tier command-and-control infrastructure using Ethereum Name Service resolution through five hard-coded public endpoints, a Tor hidden service backup, and local proxy architecture. The malware spreads by exploiting unauthenticated Android Debug Bridge instances via residential proxy services. The botnet implements 15 DDoS attack methods and utilizes ARM NEON SIMD optimization for high-performance UDP floods. Operators removed scanning and exploitation modules, separating propagation from DDoS functionality. The infrastructure is hosted primarily in Russia, with evidence of operator-controlled Ethereum RPC endpoints.
