Type  
    * Spyware Worm

How it spreads  
    * Network shares

Affected operating systems

Side effects  
    * Turns off anti-virus applications
    * Allows others to access the computer
    * Steals information
    * Downloads code from the internet
    * Reduces system security
    * Records keystrokes

Description
W32/Forbot-CI is an IRC backdoor Trojan and network worm for the 
Windows platform.

Advanced
W32/Forbot-CI is an IRC backdoor Trojan and network worm for the 
Windows platform.

In order to run automatically when Windows starts up the worm moves 
itself to the Windows system folder as svshost.exe and creates the 
following registry entries:

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\
Microsoft Windows Update = svshost.exe

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce\
Microsoft Windows Update = svshost.exe

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunServices\
Microsoft Windows Update = svshost.exe

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\
Microsoft Windows Update = svshost.exe

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce\
Microsoft Windows Update = svshost.exe

W32/Forbot-CI also creates its own service named "Microsoft Update", 
with the display name "Microsoft Windows Update".

Once installed, W32/Forbot-CI connects to a preconfigured IRC server 
and joins a channel from which an attacker can issue further commands. 
These commands can cause the infected machine to perform any of the 
following actions:

flood a remote host (by either ping or HTTP)
start a SOCKS4 proxy server
start an HTTP server
start an FTP server
portscan randomly-chosen IP addresses
execute arbitrary commands
steal information such as passwords and product keys
upload/download files

The worm can spread to unpatched machines affected by the LSASS 
vulnerability (see MS04-011) and through backdoors left open by the 
Troj/Optix Trojans.

The collected emails are then uploaded to a remote FTP server.

The following registry entry is created to run W32/Alasrou-A on 
startup:

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
Instance 001


W32/Alasrou-A changes settings for Microsoft Internet Explorer,

Description
W32/Agobot-TU is a worm and IRC backdoor for the Windows platform.

W32/Agobot-TU spreads to other network computers by exploiting common 
buffer overflow vulnerabilities, including RPC-DCOM (MS04-012) and by 
copying itself to network shares protected by weak passwords.

W32/Agobot-TU runs continuously in the background, providing a 
backdoor server which allows a remote intruder to gain access and 
control over the computer via IRC channels.
