We still don’t know the goal of this attack, as the attacker launched Dropbear (a pre-installed lightweight SSH agent) on a higher port, transferred his own BusyBox via the created SSH session, and then left the router after cleaning up their traces. However, it is interesting to note that this threat actor also targeted IP addresses compromised by the Quad7 botnet.
