Kimwolf Android botnet abuses residential proxies to infect internal devices

The Kimwolf botnet, an Android variant of the Aisuru malware, has infected over two million hosts by exploiting vulnerabilities in residential proxy networks. The malware targets devices on internal networks through compromised residential proxy infrastructure. This represents a significant escalation in botnet operations, leveraging legitimate proxy services to bypass network security controls and reach internal systems that would normally be protected from external threats.
