Arrival Details

This worm arrives on a system as a file dropped by other malware or as a file downloaded unknowingly by users when visiting malicious sites.

Autostart Technique

This worm registers as a system service to ensure its automatic execution at every system startup by adding the following registry keys:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\
Services\vds2

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\
Services\VMAuthd Service

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\
Services\VMnet DHCP

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\
Services\VMwareNATService

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\
Services\vmount3

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\
Services\Installer information

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\
Services\lanmanworkstation2

Other System Modifications

This worm deletes the following files:

Dropping Routine

This worm drops the following files:

%Windows%\ctfmon.exe
%Windows%\inetinfo.exe
%Windows%\winlogon.exe
%System%\TIMPlatform.exe
%Windows%\inf\realplayer.exe
%Program Files%\INTERN~1\iedws.exe
%Program Files%\INTERN~1\SIGNUP\iedws.exe
A:\AUTOEXEC.EXE
A:\AutoRun.inf
%System Root%\AUTOEXEC.EXE
%System Root%\AutoRun.inf

(Note: %Windows% is the Windows folder, which is usually C:\Windows.. %System% is the Windows system folder, which is usually C:\Windows\System32.. %Program Files% is the default Program Files folder, usually C:\Program Files in Windows 2000, Server 2003, and XP (32-bit), Vista (32-bit), and 7 (32-bit), or C:\Program Files (x86) in Windows XP (64-bit), Vista (64-bit), and 7 (64-bit).. %System Root% is the root folder, which is usually C:\. It is also where the operating system is located.)
