Description:
NOTE: This Trojan is part of a complex attack initiated by the MEDBOT family. The attack employs multiple components that work together to achieve a common goal. Read a comprehensive description of the malware family here: The MEDBOT Menace. |
This Trojan usually arrives on a system as a dropped or downloaded file of other malware from a remote site.
Upon execution, it drops files in the Windows system and Windows folders. It creates a certain registry entry so that it automatically executes at every system startup.
It acts as a proxy server that opens a random port, where it listens for commands from remote malicious users. As a proxy server, it allows the malicious users to hide their original location since connections can only be traced to the system where this Trojan is installed.
