|CCProtocol=P2P&lt;br /&gt;
|Abstract=As discussed in a [[All-in-one_malware:_an_overview_of_Sality|previous blog entry]], Sality-infected computers become part of a peer-to-peer (P2P) botnet. This botnet is used by peers to exchange lists of URLs pointing to malicious software, which Sality will decrypt, download and install.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Though the peer-to-peer protocol used by Sality is custom, we can reverse-engineer the malware binary to determine the P2P packet format, as well as protocol rules and features. Traffic analysis can be used to facilitate or guide a white box approach. Eventually, writing a working P2P client and/or server can be used to validate the analysis.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I decided to create a rogue P2P client that would join the Sality botnet and crawl it, in order to estimate its size.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let’s do a quick reminder of what the P2P protocol offers:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A peer can ask another peer for its list of URLs.&lt;br /&gt;
A peer can send its list of URLs to another peer.&lt;br /&gt;
A peer can ask another peer to send the coordinates (IP, port) of a third-party peer.&lt;br /&gt;
