The Xiongmai Botnet 'Recall' Will Not Work
- jhonovich 10y agoI am the author of this post, feel free to ask any questions and I'd be happy to answer.
- user5994461 10y agoAny clue on how many devices we are talking about? Any names of known public manufacturers that sold rebranded Xiongmai devices? Any name/model of particular popular IoT devices that are affected?
- jhonovich 10y agoXiongmai has hundreds of 'manufacturer' customers, mostly in China. Together, they easily amount to millions of devices (though some are analog cameras that by definition are not IP enabled). To give a sense of scale, total cctv cameras sold are in the tens of millions annual and Xiongmai is the biggest module supplier. In terms of well known brands, most brands hide using Xiongmai so there might be so well known consumer type brands but we have not discovered that yet. The typical Xiongmai brand sells to customers or SMBs at super low prices, where low cost is key.
