Dear Trend Micro customer,
As of November 24, 2005 2:34 AM (Pacific Standard Time, GMT -8:00),
TrendLabs has declared a Medium Risk Virus Alert to control the spread
of WORM_MYTOB.MX. TrendLabs has received several infection reports
indicating that this malware is spreading in Eastern Europe, Japan, India,
China, Sweden, France, Spain, Austria, and Germany.
This memory-resident worm spreads copies of itself as an attachment to
email messages, which it sends to target addresses, using its own
Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) engine. Through this SMTP engine, it is
able to easily send the said email message even without using other
mailing applications, such as Microsoft Outlook.
The email message that it sends has the following details:
From: (Spoofed)
Subject: (any of the following)
? DETECTED Online User Violation
? Important Notification

? WARNING MESSAGE YOUR SERVICES NEAR TO BE CLOSED

This worm also propagates via network shares. It searches for available
shared folders within the network and attempts to drop copies of itself
into these shares. It also generates random IP addresses and attempts
to drop copies of itself into the said addresses' default shares. It
uses the account details of the currently logged user to gain access to
password-protected shares.
It has backdoor capabilities, which enable a remote malicious user to
perform commands on the affected system, thus compromising system
security.
It runs on Windows NT, 2000, and XP.
TrendLabs will be releasing the following EPS deliverables:
TMCM Outbreak Prevention Policy 189 - released
Official Pattern Release 2.967.00 - released
Damage Cleanup Template 682 - being created
NVW 10233 - being created
