$2.1 billion lost to ‘crypto’ exploits in 2025: CertiK |

In the first five months of 2025, over $2.1 billion in digital assets were stolen by cybercriminals, with most losses stemming from wallet compromises, private key mismanagement, and social engineering tactics like phishing, according to blockchain security firm CertiK. This marks a shift in attack focus from blockchain code to human vulnerabilities, highlighted by major incidents such as the $1.5 billion Bybit hack and a $330 million theft from an elderly U.S. citizen. Despite previous years setting records in attack numbers and stolen amounts, 2025 is on pace to surpass them all. At the same time, Cisco reports that only 4% of global businesses are adequately prepared for modern cyber threats, as AI-driven attacks grow more sophisticated. While AI also aids in threat detection and response, a global shortage of skilled cybersecurity professionals continues to widen the vulnerability gap.

Botnets Exploit Wazuh Vulnerability for Mirai-Based Attacks |

Threat actors are actively exploiting CVE-2025-24016, a critical remote code execution vulnerability in Wazuh servers, to deploy two distinct Mirai-based botnets for distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks. Akamai first identified the malicious activity in late March 2025, shortly after the public disclosure of the vulnerability and a proof-of-concept (PoC) exploit. The flaw, affecting versions 4.4.0 and later, was patched in February 2025 with version 4.9.1, but attackers continue to exploit unpatched systems.
The first botnet delivers the LZRD Mirai variant, previously observed targeting IoT devices. Infrastructure analysis uncovered additional Mirai variants, including "neon" and "vision," along with exploits targeting Hadoop YARN and various router vulnerabilities.
The second botnet deploys the Resbot variant and appears to have connections to Italian-language domains, suggesting a campaign possibly targeting Italian-speaking users. It leverages multiple exploits against Huawei, Realtek, and ZyXEL routers.
Researchers note that Mirai propagation remains persistent, with attackers frequently repurposing older exploits and incorporating newly disclosed vulnerabilities, including CVE-2024-3721.
Globally, botnet activity continues to rise, especially in the APAC region and among IoT devices, contributing to an increase in sophisticated cyberattacks. Additionally, the FBI has warned about the BADBOX 2.0 botnet, which has infected millions of devices to create proxy networks for cybercriminals.

Just started my journey into hacking—been reading and watching tutorials nonstop. I joined ExploitForums because it feels like the right place to learn the real stuff, not just surface-level fluff. Hoping to master privilege escalation and basic web exploits soon. Open to mentorships or study partners!

Hey everyone, I'm Kingpin. I’ve always been fascinated by the digital underworld but only recently started diving into exploits and reverse engineering. I’m here to soak up knowledge like a sponge. I hope to one day give back what I learn. Any guidance from experienced members would mean the world.
