Malware Behavior and Technical Description

The presence of the files and registry keys from the following description.

When launched, the trojan drops in %windir%\system32 folder a DLL file having the name derived form an existing DLL from same folder (e.g. rasmanqn3.dll, mdimapzx.dll); a file with the same name but different extension is also dropped (rasmanqn3.nls, mdimapzx.dat).
In order to monitor keystrokes and the mouse, the droped DLL is injected in the memory space of all running processes.
The following registry keys are added in order to load the dropped DLL at every system reboot:
[HKCR\CLSID\{%clsid%}\InProcServer32]
(Default) = %Path_To_Dropped_DLL%
[HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{%clsid%}\InProcServer32]
(Default) = %Path_To_Dropped_DLL%
[HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\ShellServiceObjectDelayLoad]
%Dropped_DLL_Name% = %clsid%
The original executable is then deleted using a batch file created in %TEMP% directory.
