It takes advantage of software vulnerabilities to propagate across networks.
It connects to certain websites to send and receive information. However, as of this writing, the said sites are inaccessible.
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.
It arrives as a component bundled with malware/grayware packages.
Installation
This Worm adds the following folders:
- %Windows%\SpeechsTracing
- %Windows%\SpeechsTracing\Microsoft
(Note: %Windows% is the Windows folder, where it usually is C:\Windows on all Windows operating system versions.)
It drops the following files:
- %Windows%\SpeechsTracing\Crypt - ZIP file containing files required for Eternalblue-DoublePulsar exploit, deleted afterwards.
(Note: %Windows% is the Windows folder, where it usually is C:\Windows on all Windows operating system versions.)
It adds the following mutexes to ensure that only one of its copies runs at any one time:
- {F5175396-40C2-0218-278D6EE}
Propagation
This Worm takes advantage of the following software vulnerabilities to propagate across networks:
Other Details
This Worm connects to the following website to send and receive information:
- http://er{BLOCKED}.{BLOCKED}endecr.com:8080/error
- http://ta{BLOCKED}.{BLOCKED}endecr.com/tasks
- http://er{BLOCKED}.{BLOCKED}endecr.com:8080/log
- http://sc{BLOCKED}.{BLOCKED}endecr.com/status
It requires the following additional components to properly run:
- %System%\EnrollCertXaml.dll - contains files required for Eternalblue-Doublepulsar exploit
(Note: %System% is the Windows system folder, where it usually is C:\Windows\System32 on all Windows operating system versions.)
It does the following:
- It scans hosts on the Local Area Network and checks if the port 445 is available.
It will then attempt to exploit MS17-010 vulnerability to inject and execute one of the following files on the remote host:- %Windows%\SpeechsTracing\Microsoft\x86.dll - for 32-bit OS, detected as TROJ_WMINE.B
- %Windows%\SpeechsTracing\Microsoft\x64.dll - for 64-bit OS, detected as TROJ64_WMINE.B
