You are running Mailman 3, which has several malicious user mitigation
strategies available to it.
Even using a CAPTCHA on subscription removes most of the scum.
I've not used MM3 - still on MM2 - so I can't help directly, but the

mailing list is where I would start.

This wont overcome the problem of those actual vermin who subscribe with
sole intentions of spamming or abusing the list, Pablo's idea of new
user moderation is the closest workable solution.
It does, at least by reducing the amount of stuff generated by script
kiddies and 'bots.
I neither have played with MM3 or this hyperkitty thing, but seems it
has flaws that are not helping.
Hyperkitty is just a mechanism. Ask the people who know how MM3 works
for advice about the problem.
It's not like the problem is new, but even requiring acknowledgement of
subscription reduces it a lot, and adding in a CAPTCHA even more.
