Additional Details
System Infection
When first run, Zafi copies itself to the Windows System Directory with a random name. The copy is then added to the registry with a random name under
HKLMSoftware\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
To disguise its presence the worm opens a random link from the user's browser history. This tries to make the user believe that an actual link was opened from the infected email.
Another copy of the worm is created with a random name and '.DLL' extension.
The list of addresses the worm collects is written to several other '.DLL' files in the System Directory.
Email Propagation
Zafi collects email addresses by scanning through files with the following extensions:
htm wab txt dbx tbb asp php sht adb mbx eml pmr
The worms sends infected messages to all addresses that end with '.hu'.
The infected emails have the following structure:
From: <infected@sender> or <kepeslapok@meglep.hu> To: <targeted@user> Subject: kepeslap erkezett!
