New NadMesh Botnet Hunts Exposed AI Services for Cloud Keys and Kubernetes Tokens
A Go-based botnet named NadMesh, discovered in early July 2026, actively targets exposed AI and cloud services to harvest cloud credentials, Kubernetes tokens, and model access. The malware prioritizes exploitation of MCP (Model Context Protocol) services, Docker APIs, Jenkins consoles, and Redis instances, with a focus on credential theft rather than host compromise. The operator uses self-propagating scanning infrastructure, persistence mechanisms, and obfuscation to evade detection, while targeting specific ports associated with AI tools like ComfyUI, Ollama, Gradio, and n8n. Researchers observed real-time exploitation traffic, though success rates for MCP exploitation remain low compared to other vectors.
