Re: Bait Server for Trojan



the cause is: you are not secure enough

the fix is: get more secure!

leave the analysis to the pros, get your security fixed so you aren't a vector for transmitting future infections.

Hello,

I'm looking for any recommendations on how to track down the cause of a Trojan infection.

We have a number of reports of the following infection on various servers. The only common link we can find between all the infected servers is that they do not have Windows Firewall enabled, which is how I assume they are compromising the system in the first place and installing the FTP server which is then detectable.

================
Troj/ServU-Gen (Sophos)
Aliases:
not-a-virus:Server-FTP.Win32.Serv-U.5000 (Kaspersky Lab)
not-a-virus:RiskWare.FTP.Serv-U.5000 (Kaspersky Lab)
Hacktool (Symantec)
BackDoor.Servu.5000 (Doctor Web)
Troj/ServU-Gen (Sophos)
BDS/ServU.ba.1 (H+BEDV)
Win32:Trojano-356 (ALWIL)
Trojan.ServU.G (SOFTWIN)
Trojan.Servu.1 (ClamAV)
Bck/ServU.BB (Panda)
Server-FTP.Win32.Serv-U
================

I'm trying to think of the best way to set up a "Bait" server with security auditing & no Firewall to sniff the infection process.

WireShark?

Once the server is infected, it creates "DependOnService" registry entries on a few services which causes File & Printer Sharing to not work as well as a few other detectable things.

Any help would be appreciated!
