Backdoor.Win32.Rbot.bni

Every 50 milliseconds the backdoor creates a thread in which it will connect to the following server (if there is a network accessible):

www.starman.ee
www.if.ee

If in the course of 256 connection either of the servers returns an error saying that the resource is temporarily not available, the connection will be suspended for half a second.

The backdoor spreads via the Microsoft Windows DCOM RPC vulnerability. A full description of the vulnerability can be found in Microsoft Security Bulletin MS03-026 Microsoft Security Bulletin MS03-026 ().

The backdoor chooses IP addresses to attack, and if a machine under attack contains the DCOM RPC vulnerability, the backdoor will launch its code on the vulnerable machine.

If none of the computers under attack contain this vulnerability, the backdoor will try to connect using the following user names:

Administrator
Admin

and the following passwords:

If the backdoor manages to establish a connection, it will copy its executable file to the Windows system directory on the victim machine.

If your computer does not have an up-to-date antivirus, or does not have an antivirus solution at all, follow the instructions below to delete the malicious program:

1. Use Task Manager to terminate the Trojan process.
2. Delete the original backdoor file (the location will depend on how the program originally penetrated the victim machine).
3. Delete the following parameter from the system registry (see What is a system registry and how do I use it for details on how to edit the registry).

   [HKCR\CLSID\{%GUID%}]
   "(default)" = " 
   
       
   
   This Trojan program is a Windows PE EXE file.  It is a Windows PE EXE file.
   It is 50 176 bytes in size.  It is written in Assembler.
   Installation
   Once launched, the backdoor uses the name and path to its original file to
   generate a GUID, which will then be used to registry the program in the system:
   [HKCR\CLSID\{%GUID%}]
   "(default)" = "<random symbols> "
   
   [HKCR\CLSID\{%GUID%}\LocalServer32]
   "(default)" = "<path to backdoor file>"
   When launching, the backdoor creates a copy of its body called "irdvxc.exe"
   in the Windows system directory:
   %System%\irdvxc.exe
   It then launches this copy every 2 seconds with the following command line
   parameters: 
   %System%\irdvxc.exe /installservice
   %System%\irdvxc.exe /start
   The copy of the backdoor creates an entry in the system registry which uses
   the new path to the malicious file:
   [HKCR\CLSID\{C9FCA82B-D6D4-EC14-6B56-609ADDA29FB7}]
   "(Default)" = "svxqqbkhrbsqsjhq" 
   
   [HKCR\CLSID\{C9FCA82B-D6D4-EC14-6B56-609ADDA29FB7}\LocalServer32]
   "(Default)" = "%System%\irdvxc.exe"
   The backdoor file will be registered using Windows installation manager as
   a service when the command /installservice is run. This service will be launched
   automatically when the system is booted. 
   The service is called "MSDisk". The full name of the service is "Network helper Service" and the description of the service is "Network service for disk management requests".
   When the service is registered, the following registry key is created:
   [HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSDisk]
   When /start is run, the registered service will be launched. 
   The backdoor also creates a unique identifier, “jhdgcjhasgdc09890gjasgcjhg2763876uyg3fhg”
   to flag its presence in the system.
