Remediation Steps:
Immediately isolate the infected Linux device from the network. Identify and remove the malicious process and file, or ideally, re-image the device to a trusted state. Change all default and weak credentials, ensure all system software and firmware are updated to patch known vulnerabilities, and implement network segmentation to prevent lateral movement.
