Raptor Train is a large botnet, linked to Chinese espionage actor Flax Typhoon, that consisted of compromised small office/home office (SOHO) and IoT devices. Raptor Train is believed to have acted as a proxy to conceal further malicious activity such as targeted compromises of U.S. and Taiwanese networks.[Black Lotus Raptor Train September 18 2024][FBI PRC Botnet September 18 2024]

Initial compromises typically occurred through exploit of a large number of previously disclosed vulnerabilities, a list of which is provided in a September 2024 U.S. cybersecurity advisory.[FBI PRC Botnet September 18 2024]
