Worm.Win32.Doomjuice

Details
Worm.Win32.Doomjuice.b
This worm spreads via the Internet, using computers infected by I-Worm.Mydoom.a and I-Worm.Mydoom.b to propagate.
Installation
On launching, the worm copies itself to the Windows system directory under the name regedit.exe and registers this file in the system registry auto-run key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
NeroCheck = %system%\regedit.exe
The worm creates the unique identifier _sncZZmtx_133 to show its presence in memory.
Propagation
To propagate, the worm utilizes computers infected by Mydoom.a and Mydoom.b The worm connects to TCP port 3127, which has been opened by shimgapi.dll, the backdoor component of Mydoom, to receive commands. If the infected computer answers the command, then Doomjuice establishes a connection and sends a copy of itself. The backdoor component of Mydoom accepts the file and executes it.
To determine which IP addresses to attack, the worm uses the following formula: (A.B.C.D)
The first value in the address (A) is selected from the following list:
3

The second (B) and third (C) values are randomly generated by the worm. The final value (D) will be a number between 0 and 254, with values being selected in sequence.
DoS attack
The worm checks the system date, and if the current date is between the 8th and the 12th of the month, the DoS attack function will not be launched. The worm will not launch any DoS attack in January. However, in all other months and on all other dates the worm will launch a DoS attack on the www.microsoft.com site. To carry out the DoS attack, the worm sends multiple GET commands with the following parameters:
GET / HTTP/1.1
Accept: */*

Accept-Language: en-us or Accept-Language: en

Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate or blank

User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.0; Windows NT 5.0) or
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1) or
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0

Host: www.microsoft.com:80

    Worm.Win32.Doomjuice

    Details
    Worm.Win32.Doomjuice.a
    This worm spreads via the Internet, using computers infected by I-Worm.Mydoom.a and I-Worm.Mydoom.b to propagate. It is approximately 35KB in size, compressed using UPX. The size of the decompressed file is approximately 43 KB.
    Installation
    On launching, the worm copies itself to the Windows system directory under the name intrenat.exe and registers this file in the system registry auto-run key:
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
    “Gremlin” = “%system%\intrenat.exe”
    The worm extracts a file named sync-src-1.00.tbz from itself, and copies this file to the root directory, the Windows directory, the Windows system directory and to user directories in Documents and Settings.
    This file is a tar archive which contains the full source text of I-Worm.Mydoom.a
    The worm creates the unique identifier sync-Z-mtx_133 to show its presence in memory.
    Propagation
    To propagate, the worm utilizes computers infected by Mydoom.a and Mydoom.b The worm connects to TCP port 3127, which has been opened by shimgapi.dll, the backdoor component of Mydoom, to receive commands. If the infected computer answers the command, then Doomjuice establishes a connection and sends a copy of itself. The backdoor component of Mydoom accepts the file and executes it.

    The second (B) and third (C) values are randomly generated by the worm. The final value (D) will be a number between 0 and 254, with values being selected in sequence.
    DoS attack
    The worm determines the system date, and if the date is between the 1st and the 11th of the month, the worm carries out a modified DoS attack on the site www.microsoft.com. One GET command will be sent to port 80, and then repeated at random intervals. If the date is the 12th of the month or later, the commands will be sent without a break.
