Наиболее эффективным для проведения таких атак оказался баг CVE-2026-3844 в кеширующем плагине Breeze. Эксплоит для этой уязвимости использовали против более чем 45 000 сайтов, а веб-шелл, судя по логам атакующих, удалось установить более чем на 17 000 из них. | Основным инструментом хак-группы являлся обфусцированный файл down.php, предположительно созданный на базе китайского веб-шелла BestShell.
The main backdoor, a file named down.php, was heavily obfuscated, four layers deep, and appears to be derived from an open-source Chinese webshell called BestShell.

Chinese web shell family used as the apparent basis for the obfuscated down.php payload; supports file operations, command execution, reverse shells, network scanning, and checking installed security software via the derived shell.
An open-source Chinese webshell used as the basis for the campaign's main backdoor. The deployed webshell could manage files, run commands, open reverse shells, scan the network, and check which security software the host was running.
Open-source webshell framework cited as the apparent basis/evolutionary predecessor of down.php, supporting extensive file management, command execution, proxying, SQL operations, and post-exploitation features.
