1/18: Rbot-TS Worm Spreads to Weak Shares W32/Rbot-TS is a member of the W32/Rbot family of network worms. The worm can spread to weakly protected network shares, and to computers vulnerable to the RPC-DCOM and LSASS exploits (see Microsoft Security Bulletins MS04-012 and MS04-011 respectively).
The worm has a backdoor component that connects to a preconfigured IRC channel, allowing an attacker to issue instructions to the worm, thus giving access to an infected computer.
W32/Rbot-TS can be instructed to disable security software, scan remote computers, create and delete network shares, log any keystrokes made on the computer, upload and download files, and run programs.
