Draytek 2925 hacked was created by davsands
I just wanted to post in here to ask people to check their DNS settings in their routers. One of our businesses uses a 2925 and found it on Friday (11/05/2018) had incorrect DNS server listed!
I Googled the IP address and reported it to this site on Monday. I looked back today and it's filling quickly with people with Drayteks!

We were running v3.8.4 firmware, now I've updated it to v3.8.8. I've also disabled ALL remote management! We have more routers in a good number for home-based staff, we're about to start to manually check them but I do not want to have to turn off remote management, they are home-based staff after all!

It may be a remote management issue - possibly your user left it at default password (even for a moment - everythings constantly being scanned)
or it might be a LAN-side CSRF:

As Admin says, I use a 2925, and have no issues at all in that manner.

Perhaps DrayTek could add configuration change to Notification Object?

The password was quite long and was only changed back in Feb.

This is more widespread than it would seem see

I doubt this is down to a remote admin issue.
