Characteristics
This is a remote access backdoor trojan. There are several versions of this trojan existed. Newer version requires the latest DAT file for detection.
When the server is run on victim's machine, it copies itself to Windows system directory as %SysDir%Svced.exe.It creates the following registry key in order to load itself at Windows start up:
- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
"svced" = C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\svced.exe
Once the server is running, it opens port 25226, 45672 and listens on these ports. Hacker can use the trojan client program to connect to server and perform the following tasks on victim's machine:
- Configure backdoor server.
- Open/Close CD Rom, start CD-timer.
