Flodrix

Flodrix is a botnet malware strain described in the provided content as DDoS malware. It has been delivered via exploitation of Langflow vulnerabilities. Specifically, the content states that threat actors exploited the similar and easy-to-exploit Langflow flaw CVE-2025-3248 in the prior year to spread the Flodrix botnet, and that attackers hacking Langflow AI servers were observed deploying Flodrix. The malware is therefore associated with opportunistic exploitation of internet-exposed Langflow instances. High-confidence details in the content are limited, but Flodrix is explicitly characterized as a botnet used for DDoS activity and as malware delivered following compromise of vulnerable Langflow servers.
