It is a trojan program that performs destructive actions on a user's computer. It is a Windows application (PE EXE-file). Its size is 57,480 bytes. It is written in C++.
MD5: E9DC8EBABDC9A2FD571885909DA8CC0D
SHA1: A7AC04CCC620A1703F20234CB27D11E70F49B4CC
Installation
The trojan copies its body to the Windows system directory. If it can't create a copy in the Windows system directory, the copy will be created in the temporary directory of the current user:
%System%\ms<rnd>.exe %Temp%\ms<rnd>.exe
where <rnd> - any sequence of numbers and letters of the alphabet, for example, "vgzcjw" or "ngszup". In order to start automatically each time you start the system, the trojan creates a system service that runs its executable:
[HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Network Adapter Events]
Payload
Once launched the trojan performs the following actions:
- It creates a unique identifier with the following name to control uniqueness of its process:
msrdp#v3.2.4
- It stops and deletes the following services:
Norton Antivirus Service Panda Antivirus Detector de OfficeScanNT McAfee Framework Service sharedaccess OutpostFirewall lnsfw1 sfilter SmcService UmxPol UmxLU UmxAgent UmxCfg kmxagent kmxbig kmxcfg kmxfile kmxfw kmxids kmxndis kmxsbx ZoneAlarm vsmon vsdatant IswSvc ISWKL klif klpf klpid kl1 WinDefend MpsSvc BFE F-Secure Filter F-Secure Gatekeeper F-Secure HIPS F-Secure Recognizer fsbts FSFW F-Secure Gatekeeper Handler Starter FSDFWD FSMA FSORSPClient
- It creates a user named:
TermUser
and adds this user to the groups:
Administrators Remote Desktop Users
- It disables the display of the user's name in the Welcome Screen. For this purpose it creates the registry key:
[HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\SpecialAccounts\UserList] "TermUser" = "0"
- It scans removable drives, and copies the files which extensions are different from the following:
7z ace ain arc arh ari arj ark boo bz2 bzip bzip2 deb dist gzip hpk ice lha lzh lzma pack.gz package pak pkg r00 r01 r02 r03 r21 r30 rar rpm tar tar.xz tbz tbz2 tgz uha wad zip zoo aac aax ac3 acm aif aifc aiff amf amr ams amz ape apf cda cdda cdr dts dtshd flac m1a m3u m4a m4b m4p m4r mid midi miniusf mka mod mp_ mp1 mp2 mp3 mpa mpc mpga ogg pcm pls ram snd voc vox wav wave wma wpk wproj 3g2 3gp 3gp2 3gpp amv amx asf asx avi d3v divx dv4 dvr-ms dvx flc flv hdmov ifo imoviep m1pg m1v m21 m2a m2t m2ts m2v m4e m4u m4v mj2 mjp mjpg mkv mov movie mp21 mp2v mp4 mp4v mpeg mpeg4 mpg mpg2 msdvd mswmm ogm ogv ogx playlis prproj qtch rts swf vid vob vp3 vp6 vp7 wmmp wmv wmx wp3 xvid ac5 ac6 acr catpart exif ilbm ithmb jiff kodak odif picnc pictclipping pspimage qtif spiff suniff tddd trif xbm xpm agif albm apng art artwork blkrt bm2 bmp djvu icon ico jb2 jpe jpeg jpg pcx png psd sumo thumb tif tiff wbmp gif design drwdot emf eps epsf fh10 fh11 ft10 ft11 slddrt slddrw svg 3dmf 3ds 3dxml asat blend catproduct dwg md5anim md5mesh model sldasm sldprt truck openbsdcmd bat ex_ exe exopc gadget jse pif vbs vbscript widget dll
Also this files must be smaller than 10 MB. The trojan saves the copies in the directory:
%System%\storage\<rnd>\
where <rnd> - volume serial number of a removable media.
- It checks for a connection to the Internet by accessing the following URLs:
www.microsoft.com www.yahoo.com www.msn.com
- To receive commands, the trojan sends the request to one of the following URLs:
z***b-went.info oc***a-tcipty.com oc***a-tc.info h***j-emvbim.com e***g-bjsyfjoqt.info e***g-bjsyf.com xl***ju-lrychj.info xl***ju-lr.com m***o-jragnrw.info m***o-jra.com f***hrc-tzgk.info cq***oz-qwdhmor.com cq***oz-qwd.info vj***h-ajpwafh.com vj***h-ajp.info ky***wh-yelpu.com ky***wh-y.info dr***p-irxei.com ao***m-foubfkmp.info a***cm-foub.com th***-qyhnuydf.info
The sent request contains the information about a user's computer, such as system locale, serial number of the volume of the system drive, computer name, user name, information that the trojan gets from the following registry keys:
[HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Cryptography] "MachineGuid" [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion] "ProductId" [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion] "DigitalProductId" [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion] "InstallDate"
as well as information about the installed security software from the following list:
Webroot Sophos Clam Antivirus ClamWin Avast 5 avast!
that the trojan gets from the following keys in the system registry:
[HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall]
- The trojan saves its settings in an encrypted form in the registry key:
[HKLM\Software\Microsoft\TermServMonitor]
Following an attacker's command the trojan can download updates, download and execute components designed to provide access to the infected computer via RDP (Remote Desktop) protocol, as well as component for logging user actions.
The downloaded files are stored in the temporary directory of the current user:
%Temp%\win<rnd1>.tmp
where <rnd1> - any sequence of numbers and letters of the alphabet.
If the downloaded file is an archive containing the components to install, the trojan will create the directory and place the extracted files to this directory:
%Temp%\b<rnd2>\
where <rnd2> - any sequence of numbers and letters of the alphabet.
Then the trojan will install the downloaded components.
Removal Instructions
If your computer was not protected by an antivirus and was infected with this malware, follow these steps to remove it:
1. Using the system Task Manager terminate the trojan process.
2. Delete the original trojan file (its location on the infected computer will depend on how the program originally penetrated the victim machine).
3. Remove the following registry keys:
[HKLM\Software\Microsoft\TermServMonitor] [HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Network Adapter Events] [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\SpecialAccounts\UserList] "TermUser" = "0"
4. Remove the following files and directories:
%System%\ms<rnd>.exe %Temp%\ms<rnd>.exe %Temp%\win<rnd1>.tmp %Temp%\b<rnd2>\
5. Remove the following user from the system:
TermUser
6. Perform a full system scan with an antivirus with updated databases.
You can order a description for any computer malware, virus, trojan or worm.
