Your MikroTik Router May Already Be Compromised: Look for SSH User “-2”

MikroTik routers are actively being exploited through a vulnerability chain dubbed "MikroTrick," which combines an SSH authentication bypass (CVE-2026-67276) and a privilege escalation flaw (CVE-2026-86060). This allows attackers to gain full administrator control over internet-exposed devices with SSH enabled. Exploitation began as early as September 2nd, prior to the release of patches. Users are urged to update to the latest stable versions and check logs for indicators of compromise, such as failed SSH logins with the username "-2" or the creation of an "ops" user account.
