Scob is a trojan downloader written in JavaScript. It has been
found from a number of web sites on late June 24th, 2004.
The trojan has been found to be appended to existing files at
those web servers, for example pictures such as jpeg and gif
files. According to reports, the script has not been appended by
modifying the actual files on the server but using the
footer feature from Microsoft's Internet Information Server.
When executed, the trojan attempts to use an invisible frame to
connect to a page at a remote web site. At the time of writing,
the page in the web site is not available. While the page is not
currently available, there has been reports that this downloader
has been used to install variants of Padodor backdoor. Further
information about Padodor is available at:
