RondoDox botnet exploits React2Shell flaw to breach Next.js servers www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/secu…
The RondoDox botnet has been observed exploiting the critical React2Shell flaw (CVE-2025-55182) to infect vulnerable Next.js servers with malware and cryptominers.
First documented by Fortinet in July 2025, RondoDox is a large-scale botnet that targets multiple n-day flaws in global attacks. In November, VulnCheck spotted new RondoDox variants that featured exploits for CVE-2025-24893, a critical remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability in the XWiki Platform.
A new report from cybersecurity company CloudSEK notes that RondoDox started scanning for vulnerable Next.js servers on December 8 and began deploying botnet clients three days later.
