Name: Troj/Unreal-A Type: Trojan Date: 5 August 2002 Sophos has received several reports of this Trojan from the wild. Note: Sophos Anti-Virus has been detecting Troj/Unreal-A since July 2002, but has issued this IDE to improve detection. Description Troj/Unreal-A is an executable that displays the brief message "Installing Unreal Tournament 2003 15daycrack" and extracts a number of files to a subfolder named system under the standard Windows System folder. The Trojan then reboots the computer without warning. Among the extracted files are svchost.exe, explorer.exe, iw.dll, several INI (mIRC script) files and a registry file named svchost.reg. The dropper imports svchost.reg which adds the following entries to the registry: HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\ mIRC DisplayName = "mIrc" HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\ mIRC UninstallString = "SVCHOST.EXE -uninstall" Uninstallation of mIRC using the "Add-Remove Programs" control panel applet triggers uninstallation of the Trojan. However this self-removal routine is buggy and the folder containing SVCHOST.EXE must be manually removed. To launch itself at Windows Startup, the Trojan adds the registry entry: HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run svchost = Explorer.exe is passed svchost.exe on the command line to launch that executable. Explorer.exe is not viral; its function is to launch an application and immediately hide the main window. If svchost.exe is executed from the command line or from the Windows shell, it appears to be a mIRC-like chat program. When launched using the dropped explorer.exe, it runs invisibly. In both cases, the Trojan listens on port 59 and the identd port for TCP connections. The process is visible and can be killed using the Task Manager under all versions of Windows.
