Netgear, D-Link, and Huawei routers are actively being probed for weak Telnet passwords and taken over by a new peer-to-peer (P2P) botnet dubbed Mozi and related to the Gafgyt malware as it reuses some of its code.

Security researchers at 360 Netlab who discovered it and monitored its activities for roughly four months also found that the botnet's main purpose is to be used in DDoS attacks.
