Chinese hackers develop LONGLEASH malware to expand ORB network

Chinese threat actors known as UAT-7810 are developing LONGLEASH malware to compromise internet-facing networking devices, particularly unpatched Ruckus routers, to expand their Operational Relay Box (ORB) botnet infrastructure. The group is actively iterating on malware capabilities to target networking hardware and establish persistent access across victim networks.

Why it matters: Network administrators and organizations using Ruckus routers face direct compromise risk from UAT-7810's expanding infrastructure; patching exposed routers and monitoring for ORB network indicators should be immediate priorities.
