Mallory pivots from this family to the IOCs, detections, and named campaigns that touch your stack, and pages you when something new lands.
4 CVEs Mallory has correlated with this family across public research and vendor advisories. Each row links to the full Mallory page for that vulnerability.
Talos has observed UAT-7810 primarily exploit known vulnerabilities in unpatched Ruckus wireless routers, a tactic UAT-7810 has used since 2025. CVEs exploited include: CVE-2020-22653, CVE-2020-22658, CVE-2023-25717. | Talos also discovered a previously unknown backdoor, developed and operated by UAT-7810, that we track as DOGLEASH.

1 distinct threat actor attributed by public researchers. Open in Mallory to see the full evidence chain and overlapping campaigns.
The first, DOGLEASH, is a C-based backdoor capable of executing arbitrary shellcode on compromised Linux devices.
7 distinct techniques documented for this family, organized by ATT&CK tactic.
Talos discovered four new servers being used by UAT-7810 to host malicious payloads for a variety of hardware platforms including MIPS, ARM, and x64. The malware hosted predominantly consists of DOGLEASH, and accompanying shell scripts are executed on compromised systems to download and execute DOGLEASH.

2 sources tracked across advisories, community write-ups, and news. New activity surfaces here as Mallory finds it.
A C-based passive backdoor deployed to compromised Linux networking devices. It binds to a hardcoded local port, decodes incoming TCP data with a hardcoded password, and can execute shell commands, read files, rename files for backup, close its listener, gather OS information, and execute code in memory.
A C-based backdoor deployed via shell scripts on compromised Linux devices. It modifies iptables rules, listens on a specific port, decodes incoming TCP data with a hardcoded password string, and executes actions including arbitrary shellcode.
