Classmates trojan: "Should I leave my Crazy Fat Wife for a younger woman?"

An unusual bit of social engineering here:

If you click on the link (not advisable) you get the following page (hosted on a botnet somewhere):



You are then prompted to install and run a file called Adobemedia10.exe at which things will start to go seriously wrong.

The VirusTotal report indicates a very low detection rate for the binary (VBA32 flags it up as Embedded.Rootkit.Win32.Agent.ex). However, the ThreatExpert prognosis shows just how much damage this does, and identifies a C&C server at 58.65.232.17 which is a well-known malware server hosted by black hat hosting outfit Hostfresh.

This looks like a fairly horrible thing to try to clean up, and probably best to recover data, reformat and reinstall.

Asprox: dbrgf.ru

Another domain to look for in SQL injection attacks is dbrgf.ru, still calling script.js. Checking your proxy logs for ".ru/script.js" is a good idea at the moment.

It might also be worth checking for the string "google-analitycs" as the attacks redirect through a subdomain containing that mis-spelled phrase.

Asprox: lijg.ru and dbrgf.ru

A fresh round of SQL injections seem to be on the march, with (at least) two new domains being injected into vulnerable sites: www.lijg.ru and www.dbrgf.ru, calling a script named script.js.

This script redirects through an IFRAME pointing to google-analitycs.lijg.ru, although the payload is unclear.

Including some older domains, the following list seem to be active, either calling script.js or style.js.

  • www.lijg.ru
  • www.dbrgf.ru
  • www.bnmd.kz
  • www.nvepe.ru
  • www.mtno.ru
  • www.wmpd.ru
  • www.msngk6.ru
  • www.dft6s.kz
For the record, the domain registrations are as follows:

domain: LIJG.RU

SQL injection: msngk6.ru, dft6s.kz and mcuve.cn

A new bunch of domains being used in SQL injection attacks at the moment:
  • www.msngk6.ru
  • www.dft6s.kz
These are calling a script called style.js and follow on from these, most likely the work of the Asprox gang. The registration details are probably fake, but for the record are:

domain: MSNGK6.RU
type: CORPORATE
nserver: ns2.msngk6.ru. 75.63.155.106
nserver: ns3.msngk6.ru. 146.57.249.100
nserver: ns1.msngk6.ru. 76.240.151.177
nserver: ns4.msngk6.ru. 24.247.215.75
state: REGISTERED, DELEGATED
person: Aleksandr A Zamaraev
phone: +7 495 7412992

registrar: NAUNET-REG-RIPN

The domain mcuve.cn is different, calling 1.js. This is related to the recent 17gamo.com domain which exploits a number of things including this recent IE7 vulnerability.

Check your proxy logs for .cn/1.js and .ru/style.js plus .kz/style.js to keep on top of these. It is often worth monitoring all traffic to .cn, .ru and .kz domains for manual review.

"Classmates Info Center": Currently planning the 2009 Year Reunion

There's a fake "Classmates" email being spammed out, that leads to a fake video that needs a fake "Adoble Media Player" called Adobe_Player10.exe and as you would probably guess, at the end of all this fakery is a nasty trojan.

Detection rates are poor according to VirusTotal. ThreatExpert's report is right here. It installs a rootkit and does all sorts of nasty things. Avoid.
