1,035 hosts identified as Mozi botnet nodes: 1,033 still listed, 2 archived. First seen 2026-06-13.
About
A peer-to-peer IoT botnet built on published Mirai and leaked Gafgyt code, which finds its peers over the public BitTorrent DHT rather than checking in to a central listener — an approach Hajime used before it. A node can serve the bot over HTTP, from a port it picks at random, and most addresses here were identified from the file they served. Qihoo 360's Netlab reported in 2021 that Mozi's authors had been arrested, and in 2023 a kill switch pushed under the botnet's own signing keys stopped the bot on the nodes it reached and took its place. An address listed here was observed as an infected device, whose owner is the victim, rather than as operator infrastructure; Mozi's documented targets are chiefly routers and DVRs. A listing records what the scanner observed, not that anyone still commands it.

Detection packs
Rules for this hub's 1,033 still-listed hosts, across all 11 pages of the list, updated with the archive. Withdrawn hosts can stay in these files for up to five minutes. Each listener gets one Suricata rule on its address and port, with the same rule ID in every file: load one set, or let suricata-update merge them. A newer file replaces an older one. YARA rules match file hashes only.
