It's better to provide this information to increase security. A
cookbook providing recipes to attack computers also renders such
attacks useless, since users then have the chance to protect their
computers against such attacks. If you keep this secrets, you increase
security risks, not security.

For botnet usage attackers tend to hack routers, not the operating
systems of the connected desktop computers and tablet PCs.
