Banking Trojans II

In Banking Trojans Part I I covered some banking trojan families. Here I will list the rest of the most dangerous of these types of malicious codes.

 

Goldun, Haxdoor, Nuclear Grabber
It usually drops a DLL and a SYS file with rootkit functionality.
It creates a registry entry in order to load the DLL:

Cimuz, Bzud, Metafisher, Abwiz, Agent DQ
It usually drops a DLL as a Browser Helper Object (BHO) with these names:
    %SystemRoot%\appwiz.dll
    %SystemRoot%\ipv6mmo??.dll

We have seen also other names for these files.


Bankolimb, Nethell, Limbo
It usually drops a DLL as a Browser Helper Object (BHO) and an encrypted XML which acts as a configuration file for the Trojan.
Some variants create the following registry entry:

And creates the files:
    %SystemRoot%\ldshfr.old
    %SystemRoot%\mentid.dmp
    %SystemRoot%\nwkr.ini
    %SystemRoot%\nwwnt.ini

Usually targets banks from the Netherlands.


Silentbanker

If you suspect infection by these or any other type of malware I encourage you to double check by scanning your PC online with ActiveScan 2.0.
