Trojan-Downloader.Win32.Braidupdate.c (Kaspersky Lab) is also known as: TrojanDownloader.Win32.Braidupdate.c (Kaspersky Lab), Trojan.Braid (Doctor Web),   TROJ_BRAIDUPDT.C (Trend Micro),   TR/Dldr.Braidupda.C (H+BEDV),   Win32:Trojano-363 (ALWIL),   Downloader.Braidupdate.C (Grisoft),   Worm.WinUpToDate (ClamAV),   Trj/Downloader.PO (Panda),   Win32/TrojanDownloader.Braidupdate.C (Eset)

This Trojan downloads another program via the Internet and launches it on the victim machine without the user's knowledge or consent. It is a Windows PE EXE file. It is 79360 bytes in size. It is written in C++.

Installation

In order to ensure that the Trojan is launched automatically each time the system is restarted, the Trojan registers its executable file in the system registry:

[HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
"RunWindowsUpdate" = "<path to executable Trojan file> "

Payload

Once launched, the Trojan creates the following system registry key:

[HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunWindowsUpdate]
"Gid" = "026133246127060045718030656336"

It then sends the following request:

http://www.uptodate.browse*****.com/perl/uptodate.pl?action=any&gid=026133246127060045718030656336&clientversion=1.0.7_ST&county=&cls=&isof=00

On contact with the URL shown above a parameter is added which transmits the latest version of the Trojan program. If there is no new version of the Trojan program available, the server sends the following answer: "<OK>". If there is a more recent version available, the server sends a link to the file containing the new version. The Trojan downloads an updated version of itself and saves it to the temporary directory under the following name:

%Temp%\_ps_inst.exe

The file is then launched for execution.

Removal instructions

Bofra.A / MyDoom variant

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

Bofra.A / MyDoom variant

Exploits SHDOCVW.DLL flaw

Note: Some vendors are referring to the Bofra worm as a variant of MyDoom, though even then there is disagreement as to which variant they claim it is. For example, Symantec (who also calls the widely known Bagle worm the Beagle worm) initially dubbed the Bofra worm as MyDoom.AH then later changed their name to MyDoom.AI). Bofra.A is a mass-mailing email worm that arrives without an attachment and infects when the user clicks on an enticing link contained in the Bofra worm's message. The email link claims to point to an adult video or webcam photos.

Specifically, Bofra.A exploits a vulnerability in certain versions of SHDOCVW.DLL, a Windows operating system file that renders the IFRAME, FRAME, and EMBED HTML tags.

The vulnerable versions of SHDOCVW.DLL are found on Windows Xp (SP1 and below) and 2000 systems. Windows XP SP2 is not affected.

The vulnerability was first discovered on October 23, 2004 with first public release of exploit code on November 1, 2004. Bofra.A was discovered on November 8, 2004.

The From address in the email is spoofed and portions of the header may also be forged. The Subject line of the email will be one of the following:

    funny photos :)
    hello
    hey!
    blank
    random characters

The Message Body varies and may be either of the following:

The links point to a webpage on the infected host (via TCP port 1639) that exploits the SHDOCVW.DLL vulnerability and results in a buffer overflow condition in Internet Explorer. This allows shell code to execute, causing the local machine to download and execute the malicious file, thus becoming another infected host (and making the download site a perpetually moving target).

The Bofra worm searches the newly infected system for email addresses, sending the email to those found, thus repeating the process.

A second variant of the worm masquerades as a PayPal notice, claiming that PayPal has charged $175 to your account and providing a link to find 'details'. Of course, clicking the link infects the recipient's computer.

Storm Worm

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

also known as Trojan-Downloader.Win32.Small.dam, Trojan.Downloader-647, Trojan.DL.Tibs.Gen!Pac13, Email-Worm.Win32.Zhelatin.a (Kaspersky), Downloader-BAI (McAfee), Troj/Dorf-Fam (Sophos), Trojan.Peacomm (Symantec), TROJ_SMALL.EDW (Trend Micro), Win32/Nuwar.N@MM (Microsoft).

Type: Email worm, Trojan, Downloader
Discovered: January 19, 2007
Method of Propagation: The Storm worm spreads via email, using a variety of subject lines and message text that may masquerade as news articles or other current events. For example, subject lines in the Storm email may be named one of the following:

A killer at 11, he's free at 21 and kill again!
U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice has kicked German Chancellor
Angela Merkel
British Muslims Genocide
Naked teens attack home director.
230 dead as storm batters Europe.
Radical Muslim drinking enemies's blood.
Chinese missile shot down Russian satellite
Saddam Hussein alive!
Venezuelan leader: "Let's the War beginning".
Fidel Castro dead.

The attachment carried by the Storm worm may be named one of the following:

FullVideo.exe
Full Story.exe
Video.exe
Read More.exe
FullClip.exe
GreetingPostcard.exe
MoreHere.exe
FlashPostcard.exe
GreetingCard.exe
ClickHere.exe
ReadMore.exe
FlashPostcard.exe
FullNews.exe

Symptoms of Infection:

Note: There are dozens of variants of the Storm worm. The following technical details may not apply to each of them. To determine whether a Storm worm infection is present, scan your systems with up-to-date antivirus software.

System Impact:
The Storm email worm may drop the the file 'wincom32.exe' into the Windows system directory (typically, C:\Windows\System under Windows 95/98/ME, C:\Winnt\System32 under Windows NT/2000, and C:\Windows\System32 under Windows XP.

The Storm worm loads the dropped wincom32.exe as a device driver by modifying the registry as follows:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\wincom32

This device driver injects a module into the services.exe process, sets up a peer-to-peer filesharing network on infected systems, and opens and listens for commands on UDP port 4000, 7871, and 11271.

The Storm worm then downloads files from various remote IP addresses and executes those files on the local system.

Removal Notes:
The Storm worm is rootkit enabled and may hide files and processes associated with it and other malware it downloads. To remove the worm and other installed malware, scan the system using up-to-date antivirus software.
