• Mirai Malware Analysis, Overview by ANY.RUN
  web:any.run

  Mirai is a self-propagating malware that scans the internet for vulnerable IoT devices and infects them to create a botnet. Mirai variants utilize lists of common default credentials to gain access to devices. Mirai's primary use is for launching distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks, but it has also been used for cryptocurrency mining.

  web:arxiv.org

  Abstract—Mirai is undoubtedly one of the most significant Internet of Things (IoT) botnet attacks in history. In terms of its detrimental effects, seamless spread, and low detection rate, it surpassed its predecessors. Its developers released the source code, which triggered the development of several variants that combined the old code with newer vulnerabilities found on popular IoT devices ...

  Supplement persistence layers: Mirai has nothing; only the re-infection scripts operate on the restart. On the whole, the disassembly clears up the case that Mirai is an efficient, straight, and goal-oriented ARM malware engaged in large botnet activity. I might drop a full breakdown video of the disassembly and analysis soon, so keep an eye out.

  Mirai is a malware botnet that infects Internet of Things (IoT) devices using default or weak login credentials. Once infected, these devices are controlled by a command-and-control (CnC) server and can be used to launch DDoS attacks. This repo is a fork of the original leaked source code and includes components such as: The bot (runs on IoT devices) The CnC server The loader (infects devices ...

  In this particular case, I found an ARM-compiled Mirai botnet sample. The anti-virus checks labeled it as " Mirai ," matching what I found in the documentation, sandbox analyses, and community threat intelligence sources. Mirai is known to compile variants for multiple architectures (ARM, MIPS, x86, x64, etc.), making it adaptable and widespread.
