Android car head units infected with proxy botnet malware through built-in software updaters
Kaspersky found malware delivered via car head unit updaters, attributed to the MoYu Group's BADBOX operation, recruiting devices into a proxy botnet.
Kaspersky discovered malware delivered through the built-in TWCore system updater in Android-based car head units running DoFun infotainment firmware, turning devices into ad-fraud tools and nodes in a proxy botnet. The three-stage infection chain (JarService dropper, loader, and final payload supporting nine commands) installs the zhima reverse-proxy module, which Nokia's Deepfield team independently found on TV set-top boxes. Kaspersky attributes the operation with high confidence to the MoYu Group, linked to the BADBOX supply-chain botnet first identified by HUMAN Security in 2023. DoFun closed the gap after Kaspersky's responsible disclosure.

Android Car Malware Spreads Through Built
Kaspersky found MoYu Group malware infecting DoFun Android car head units via firmware updaters, enabling ad fraud and proxy botnet operations.
Kaspersky discovered in June 2026 the first documented malware specifically infecting Android-based car head units, spread through the built-in updater (TWCore) of DoFun head unit firmware via a dropper dubbed JarService. The multi-stage implant supports nine commands enabling unwanted ads, ad fraud, and additional module downloads, and installs the zhima reverse proxy module. The campaign is attributed with high confidence to the MoYu Group behind the BADBOX ad fraud and residential proxy scheme; the distribution issue was fixed after responsible disclosure.

Malware Hijacks Android Car Head Units
Kaspersky reports first known malware infecting Android car head units via firmware updaters, repurposing vehicles as BADBOX proxy nodes for ad fraud.
Kaspersky documented the first known malware infection of Android-based car head units, delivered through the built-in TWCore firmware updater on DoFun devices via an MQTT-driven installation flag. A multi-stage chain installs the JarService dropper and a loader that pulls a clicker and reverse proxy module ('zhima') used for ad fraud and proxy botnet infrastructure. The malware supports nine commands, including clipboard changes, HTTP requests, and JavaScript loading, checking in with C2 every 90 minutes. Kaspersky attributes the campaign with high confidence to MoYu Group, linked to the BADBOX botnet.

CVE-2026-57822: Apache Artemis, Apache ActiveMQ Artemis: Message-based management parameter deserialization may lead to denial of service
Apache fixed CVE-2026-57822, a deserialization flaw in ActiveMQ Artemis management messaging letting authorized clients trigger broker denial of service.
Apache disclosed a deserialization issue in message-based management request handling for Apache Artemis and Apache ActiveMQ Artemis. It affects Apache Artemis (artemis-core-client) 2.50.0 through 2.56.0 and ActiveMQ Artemis (artemis-core-client) 1.3.0 through 2.44.0. Exploitation requires an authenticated client authorized with MANAGE permission using management-via-messaging; parameter processing can trigger denial of service. Apache rates the issue as important.
