Madrid, April 18, 2004 - Today's report focuses on two variants of Netsky -V
and U-, and a hacking tool called Hideout.A.
Nesky.V spreads via e-mail in a message with variable characteristics that
does not include an attached file. Instead, it contains HTML code with an
ObjectData exploit. When this code is run, the worm is downloaded.
Nesky.V carries out various actions in the computers it infects, including
the following:
- It creates a backdoor that listens in on TCP ports 5556 and 5557.
- From April 22 to 28, 2004 -inclusive- it launches Denial of Service (DoS)
attacks against different websites.
- It looks for e-mail addresses in the files it finds with the following
extensions: ADB, ASP, CFG, CGI, DBX, DHTM, DOC, EML, HTM, HTML, JSP, MBX,
MDX, MHT, MMF, MSG, NCH, ODS, OFT, PHP, PL, PPT, RTF, SHT, SHTM, STM, TBB,
TXT, UIN, VBS, WAB, WSH, XLS and XML. Then it sends itself out to the
addresses it has obtained using its own SMTP engine.
- It creates the mutex _-=oOOSOkOyONOeOtOo=-_ in order to avoid being run
several times simultaneously.
The U variant of Netsky spreads via e-mail in a message with variable
characteristics, which always includes an attached file with a PIF
extension. It creates a backdoor that listens in on TCP port 6789 and like
the variant described above, it sends itself out to the addresses it obtains
from the affected computer using its own SMTP engine. Netsky.U creates a
mutex to avoid being run several times simultaneously and from April 14 to
23, 2004 -inclusive- it tries to launch Denial of Service (DoS) attacks
against different websites.
