Abstract

“ Backdoor:Win32/Caphaw.A attempts to communicate using TCP port 443 to certain servers, such as the following:

• web<removed>es.cc
• exte<removed>adv.cc
• no<removed>here.cc
• commonworld<removed>.cc

An attacker can perform any number of different actions on an affected computer infected with this threat, such as:

• Control of the system desktop, which allows the attacker to see the desktop, and to gain control of the mouse and keyboard
• Access to files and folder via a internal FTP server
• Redirect Internet traffic via a proxy server
• Send ICMP packets that can be used in distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks
• Log and redirect web traffic from Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer
• Update itself
• Shut down or restart the computer
