What happened
SANS ISC diary roundup (Mar 13–19, 2026) summarizing multiple attacker behaviors observed in honeypots and telemetry: cowrie logs showing an "MAGIC_PAYLOAD_KILLER...iranbot was here" echo and successful Telnet login / portscanning from IP 64.89.161.198; widespread scans targeting Adminer/phpMyAdmin instances; use of IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses (RFC 4038) likely to obfuscate origin; /proxy/ URL scanning patterns to find open proxies; SmartApeSG campaign using a ClickFix page to deliver the Remcos RAT; and a React-based phishing page that exfiltrates credentials via the EmailJS service.
