F-Secure Virus Descriptions : Zafi.B
[Summary] | [Disinfection] | [Detailed Description] | [Detection]
|
|
THIS VIRUS IS RANKED AS LEVEL 2 ALERT UNDER F-SECURE RADAR.
Radar Alert LEVEL 2
|
A new variant of Zafi worm - Zafi.B is spreading. While the
original Zafi.A uses only Hungarian, the new Zafi.B spreads in
email in English, Italian, Spanish, Russian, Swedish etc.
The worm sends itself in emails mostly as .pif attachment and in
rare cases it sends .exe or .com.
F-Secure provides the special disinfection utility to eliminate
Zafi.B worm infection. You can download this utility from our
ftp site:
ftp://ftp.f-secure.com/anti-virus/tools/f-zafi.exe
ftp://ftp.f-secure.com/anti-virus/tools/f-zafi.zip
Disinfection instructions can be found here:
ftp://ftp.f-secure.com/anti-virus/tools/f-zafi.txt
System administrators who are using F-Secure Policy Manager,
can distribute the tool as a JAR package automatically to all
workstations.
System administrators can download the JAR version from:
http://www.f-secure.com/tools/f-zafi.jar
ftp://ftp.f-secure.com/anti-virus/tools/f-zafi.jar
Zafi.B spreads in FSG! packed form which is 12800 bytes in size.
The body unpacks to around 30 KiB of hand-written assembly code.
System Infection
When Zafi.B is started it copies itself to the Windows System
Directory with a random .DLL and random .EXE name. The .EXE
file is added to the registry as
[HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
"_Hazafibb" = "%SysDir%\<random>.exe"
Several additional files are created in the System Directory with
random name and .DLL extension. The worm keeps its internal data in
those.
Zafi.B enumerates all the directories in the system and copies
itself as either 'winamp 7.0 full_install.exe' or
'Total Commander 7.0 full_install.exe'
to the ones that contain 'share' or 'upload' in their name.
Email Propagation
Zafi.B looks into the Windows Address Book and different files and tries to
gather email addresses. Files with the following extensions are checked:
htm
wab
txt
dbx
tbb
asp
php
sht
adb
mbx
eml
pmr
Using its own SMTP engine the worm sends messages with infected attachments
in many different languages.
For email addresses in the following domains the worms sends messages
in the respective languages:
.hu .sp .ru .dk .ro .se .no .fi .lt .pl .pt .de .nl .cz .fr .it .mx .at
For Hungarian recipients there are three different messages. Any recipient
that is not on the list (including .COM, .NET, etc.) is sent one of the
three predefined English messages.

Payload
Zafi.B terminates any application that has the words 'firewall' or 'virus'
in it. These files are overwritten with a copy of the worm.
Several Windows tools, like Task Manager, Registry Editor are disabled
when the worm is active. Zafi.B opens these files with exclusive locking
to prevent anything else from opening them.
