Description:
This memory-resident worm spreads via network shares. It exploits the following vulnerabilities to propagate across networks:
- Remote Procedure Call (RPC) Distributed Component Object Model (DCOM) vulnerability
- Windows LSASS vulnerability
For more information about these Windows vulnerabilities, please refer to the following Microsoft Web pages:
It scans the system for available lists of user names and passwords, which it uses to gain access to target systems. It may also use a hardcoded list of user names and passwords, aside from the gathered data. It then drops a copy of itself in accessed network shares.
It has backdoor capabilities, which enable it to act as an Internet Relay Chat (IRC) bot. This allows a remote user to access the infected system and perform malicious commands. It can also steal the Windows product ID and CD keys of popular game applications.
