Backdoor:BAT/Agent.H is a trojan that allows backdoor access and control of an affected computer. In the wild, we have observed the trojan dropping TrojanProxy:JS/Banker.L, which may redirect the user's browser traffic through an attacker-controlled proxy server.



Installation

When Backdoor:BAT/Agent.H is run, it drops the following files:

  • %UserProfile%\local settings\temp\y.db
  • %UserProfile%\local settings\temp\t <random number>.vbs
  • %UserProfile%\local settings\temp\ <computer name>.txt - detected as TrojanProxy:JS/Banker.L


Payload

Allows backdoor access and control

Backdoor:BAT/Agent.H attempts to connect to the following URL:

sivellongrupp.ee/googles.php?a=<user name>&b=<computer name>

An attacker can perform any number of different actions on an affected computer using this backdoor. This could include, but is not limited to, the following actions:

  • Download and execute arbitrary files
  • Upload files
  • Log keystrokes or steal sensitive data
  • Modify system settings
  • Run or terminate applications
  • Delete files


The backdoor modifies settings in Mozilla Firefox with the following configuration file:

prefs.js

This allows the backdoor to intercept communication between an infected computer and certain websites, which may result in the theft of log-on credential details or other sensitive information.
