Detailed Description
|
Trojan-Downloader:W32/Valenavir.A disguises itself as a Saint Valentine's Day eCard notification.
The eCard notification arrives in spammed e-mail. When you click on the link in the e-mail, it will redirect you to a page that asks you to install a fraudulent Adobe Flash Player. The software is supposedly required in order to view the eCard. This fraudulent application is actually a Trojan-Spy that downloads and installs a Trojan-Spy:W32/BZub variant onto the system.
Once installed, Valenavir.A connects to:
- http://www.nownames.org/new/[blocked].php?l=Un
Which redirects to:
- http://dedmazay.3322.org/images/[blocked].exe.
The attempted download is detected as Trojan-Spy:W32/Bzub.HZ. |
