Here is probably new variant of TDL. Or another copy-paste clone, I'm not sure, currently can't get it work because of nice Blue Screens it provides to me (BSOD in atapi.sys and then system unbootable) :)

Three different methods of drivers loading used (tdl3 method, beep.sys method, direct NtLoadDriver).

443-direct.e_ = dropper itself
269E.dll to be injected into spooler (contains sys, see next)
sst2.sys driver it's trying to load

here is ThreatExpert entry describing the same behavior

I had just been looking at 443-direct myself, but it freezes the VM at AddPrintProvidor(..) lol
Managed to extract the dll and unpack it and watch it (with a bit of help) write the driver, load it and write its service entry to the registry.
It has notify callbacks for CreateProcess and LoadImage. As soon as I establish an internet connection the VM freezes. :?
Will probably have a bit more of a play with it later. Maybe emulate the internet functionality of the driver and see what turns up. ;)

edit:
It downloaded a heap of things, but as soon as I tried to browse directories everything froze. Maybe this malware is alpha version.

Ok, crap reversed. It is PALEVO :D Or if it wants, it will be MaxSS.

Unfortunately not, I just saw numerous things executing in Task Manager, one was AMdelta.exe, but as soon as I tried to look for anything, the VM froze.
I tried removing the callbacks before it downloaded anything, but that ended with the same result. Trojan.pcCrippler :?:

In message, you see .ex

Those should be PRAGMA, I havent got to all the others yet. :roll:

Think ones look like windowsupdate logo may be FakeAV

Yes, it is some sort of new TDL.

The same I/O filtering, now working for hiding infected volsnap.sys modification.
Here is infected driver sample if somebody want to look. To counteract simple removal it constantly reopens handle for infected driver in queued WorkItem.

Samples from the target site with size ~ 17 kb all are classical TDSS downloaders.
hxxp://Traffic-Advisory.com/a/ad;
hxxp://www.fastradotop.com/a/ad;

Unfortunately payload inaccessible for me.

If you take a look on injected code you will find a lot of things.
This trojan is very self descriptive :)

All samples with size of 420+ kb from archive posted above - recrypt of the same Fake AV (Malware Defense reincarnation).

PX5 is rights, it's PRAGMA :)
