Title: Malware and Spam emails : (Suspicious sign in prevented)
Post by: escrow.ms on March 30, 2014, 10:14:23 PM
I got a mail same as other members as you can see here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=548777.msg5973960#msg5973960) it looks like a simple phishing mail with title "Suspicious sign in prevented" but it's more than that.
Email is probably being sent via a php mailer from a hacked server (wohnmobileunited.de)

If you move your mouse on button you will see a shortlink, I copied that link and it redirected me to phishing cum landing page that gives warning about outdated firefox and tries to install a xpi file by running it

XPI file is  hosted on dropbox.

Now I tried to download that addon, renamed .xpi to .zip and exported it's content.

Voila.. There's a exe in it, which is a custom bot cum password stealer that downloads more files on your pc automatically.
But how it's getting executed?  Answer is in javascript file.

It connects to a domain and some servers.
zuzuri.x64.me    79.172.242.88

X64.me is a free dns domain https://www.dnsdynamic.org

Virus scan report. (Most antiviruses are unable to detect as it's Crypted.

Now when you try to find more info about that zazuri.x64.me domain, you will get scan links of other malwares that includes .scr file and a pdf (pdf exploit)

Install any av that detected it successfully on virustotal and if you have installed that xpi addon your pc is probably infected. You can download malware byets startup lite and look for any random startup entry and check running process (http://www.comodo.com/business-security/network-protection/cleaning_essentials.php)

I didn't install that plug in my computer but will make sure to do a check with the process checker. My running avast  atm and have malwarebytes pro but they both showed my system is clean so maybe I should calm down and stop getting so finicky about it.

Never open messages like that one nor download anything that is asked there.

Thanks for posting this. Do you have any idea how that got your E-Mail? Hopefully, I didn't get one.
