TrendLabs | Malware Blog - by Trend Micro - 2 new articles

 

Here are the latest updates for security-news@awsoda.net "TrendLabs | Malware Blog - by Trend Micro" - 2 new articles Cybercrooks Handing Out Malware Flyers iTunes Invoices and Valentine's Ads Conceal Pharma Spam More Recent Articles Search TrendLabs | Malware Blog - by Trend Micro Cybercrooks Handing Out Malware Flyers The social engineering technique used in this attack takes form not on the World Wide Web, but on a flyer pinned on a car windshield. The URL stated in the flyers is inaccessible as of this writing. However previous reports have indicated that the page displayed images of several cars on parking lots, with the following text: To view pictures of your vehicle in Grand Forks, North Dakota download here: CLICK ME FOR THE PICTURE SEARCH TOOLBAR Clicking the link CLICK ME FOR THE PICTURE SEARCH TOOLBAR on the page triggers the installation of the file PictureSearchToolbar.exe which is detected as TROJ_BHO.TW. It extracts a malicious DLL file, which in turn is detected as TROJ_DLOADER.UTI. TROJ_DLOADER.UTI then attempts to connect to the malicious domain www.{BLOCKED}dhe.com to download of another malicious DLL file: apstpldr.dll. The said file is also detected as TROJ_DLOADER.UTI. apstpldr.dll is also installed as a BHO on the affected system. Once the user reboots the system and connects the Internet, a message box appears alerting the user of a malware infection. Clicking the OK button in the message will direct the user to a rogue AV website, where the users is greeted with fake security alerts. The unknowing user is then prompted to download the file InstallAVg_.exe. The said downloaded file is a rogue AV detected as TROJ_FAKEAV.TJ Cybercriminals are really doing what they can to get past the users' careful judgment. Using a social engineering technique that is not computer-related, they are able to lure users into malicious domains. Users are advised to be vigilant, and be wary of these schemes, as a malware scheme need not start in front of a computer, or not even at home. The Trend Micro Smart Protection Network now blocks the malicious domain involved in this attack. Initially reported by SANS.org. Image taken from GrandForksHerald.com Post from: TrendLabs | Malware Blog - by Trend Micro Cybercrooks Handing Out Malware Flyers • Email to a friend • Article Search • Related • View comments • Track comments • • iTunes Invoices and Valentine's Ads Conceal Pharma Spam February has begun, and as they say, love is in the air. Along with pharma spam, that is. We have recently found spammed messages posing as an invoice from iTunes in its e-mail subject but contains an advertisement for a "special Valentine's day sale” containing links that lead to pharma websites. Figure 1. Spammed messages pretending to be from iTunes iTunes garnered an estimated 3.34 billion dollars in sales for 2008, and the numbers for early 2009 are quite promising as well. With the great success and vast number of customers, this pretty much explains the usage of iTunes to lure users into pharma sites. On the other hand, the other spam run takes advantage of timeliness. Arriving on users' inboxes as an advertisement for a Valentine's Day sale, it displays images of the jewelry that are supposedly on sale. Moreover, he email messages are altered so that the address in the From: field contains a Trend Micro-related email address. This kind of technique to evade spam filters has been seen before, which may suggest that this was possibly done by the same spammer. Figure 2.Spam pretending to be an ad for a valentines' day sale Clicking the image connects the user to nothing else but the fake Canadian pharmacy website. Figure 3.Fake Canadian Pharmacy website The above reported spammed messages are already blocked by the Smart Protection Network. Additional text by Jonathan Leopando.
