Title: Anyone else get this malware email?
Post by: theymos on May 24, 2012, 07:24:27 PM
I received this file via email. I suspect it is malware -- possibly a wallet-stealer. Did anyone else get this?

Please let us know if you interested.

Thanks & Regards

The ecurrency part makes me think it's targeted to Bitcoin users.

I got it too. I deleted it without clicking, so I don't know where the link goes.

File ends in .xls.scr.xls. .scr is the same as .exe, used in screensavers but can do anything that a standard executable can do.

Truth be told, I ran it on my offline virtual machine, and I have no freaking Idea what it does.

Run it in a VM with Sandboxie, with logging enabled. The Sandboxie logs will tell you all the files and registry objects that the programs touches, whether in a read or a write operation.

Give me a bit, and I will have a log ready as soon as I run it. Call it my White hat deed of the day...lol

Cant figure out how to make a log at moment, but none of my scans are showing really anything malicious.

It just displayed gibberish when I opened it in Office 2007. Didn't touch any files. Maybe it targets some other vulnerable software.

It's a Win32 executable, not an Office file. The vulnerable software it targets is Windows. ;)

It is hiding a trojan. Out of the 32 scans I ran, it only popped up in 2 of them. All the appropriate information is posted in my previous posts links.

Cool site! Analysis of this particular sample: http://anubis.iseclab.org/?action=result&task_id=10628d7019a46f47405a49a63bcc93a25

It appears to be a trojan that does keylogging, and installs a reverse shell or VNC-type program. It does 2 DNS lookups and a few http connections, all shown in the report.
