Concrete signature match: Backdoor - Provides unauthorized remote access for Linux platform, family Mirai
This threat is a backdoor from the Mirai botnet family, which targets Linux-based systems and IoT devices. Once infected, the device is used to scan for other vulnerable systems and participate in large-scale Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks. The '!MTB' suffix indicates this detection was made by a machine learning model based on the file's behavior.
