A vulnerability in an old camera is used to create a botnet
The camera is no longer supported by its supplier and does not receive a patch

The IC-7100, made by a Taiwanese network gear manufacturer called Edimax, is vulnerable to a command injection error caused by incorrect neutralization of incoming requests, found security researchers from Akamai.
