P2PInfect botnet targets REdis servers with new ransomware module
P2PInfect, originally a dormant peer-to-peer malware botnet with unclear motives, has finally come alive to deploy a ransomware module and a cryptominer in attacks on Redis servers.
People really expose redis to the internet?
Yes.
303,481 servers worldwide, according to Shodan.
😭 why though? I assume that if you are smart enough to setup redis, you'd be smart enough to use VPNs (or similar) as to never expose it
