Warrant filed by the #FBI in the Southern District Court of Texas, Dec. 2023.

21. Upon identification of Target Devices, the FBI will not physically seize such routers from the many geographically-dispersed, U.S.-based owners to prevent the routers’ use in further criminal activity. Instead, the FBI will utilize a less intrusive, remote means to accomplish the router seizures that the owners can reverse upon receiving notice of the operation. Using the malware’s communications protocols, the FBI will issue a command to the Target Devices to delete the #KV #Botnet malware from the Target Devices. The FBI has done extensive testing on every type of #Cisco and #NetGear router that the FBI has identified as being part of the botnet and confirmed that the removal of the KV Botnet malware through this delete command does not affect any legitimate files or information on the Target Devices.
