New Carbonato malware uses AI agents to hijack exposed Docker hosts

Carbonato is a new botnet malware that exploits insecure Docker hosts (Docker is a containerization tool that packages applications) by installing an AI agent framework called Hermes Agent to take control of them. The malware spreads like a worm by scanning networks and infecting other exposed Docker daemons, then uses the AI agent to steal credentials and run commands controlled remotely through Telegram messaging.
