Full Version: xls file infected
Gladiator Security Forum > Malware Help Forum > HELP! Think you are Infected?
GlobalEyes
this is the first time I find (avg finds) a "virus" in a xls file.

It's a excel file with multiple sheets, no macros (as far as I remember) and lots of data that I would like to save.

Even if AVG cleans it I still cannot open it, it says "cannot open read only file" (it's not a read only file).

What can I do? Is there a way I can retreive the data?
Hunter
go find the log for that AVG on your PC and post it please. when AVG finds anything it logs it.

Also do this in your next post if you want help in this forum

Yes it is as real virus..



05/02/2007 - 12:47

São Paulo, 05 of February of 2007 - the Microsoft emitted an official notice to the applicatory users of the package of Office regarding a wave of attacks based on the Day Zero - offensive one where cracker it explores a new imperfection moments later that the company liberates one patch of correçãopara a previous breach.


In the note, the company confirms
existence of such attacks, but affirms that its reach is sufficient
limited. The used technique for crackers if bases on an error of
execution of code that makes use of the archives of the publisher of Excel spread sheets, with extension XLS. By means of this breach, the criminals try to launch attacks of phishing. The Microsoftanunciou despite other editions of the Office also are displayed to
it fails. However, the version most current of the package - Office 2007 - was not
affected.

One sends regards that the users do not open archives
executable (.EXE) of the Office of unknown origin, beyond keeping
its solutions of security (antivirus and firewall) always activated.

Exploit-MSExcel.h

http://vil.nai.com/vil/content/v_141393.htm


This detection covers a Microsoft Excel document that contains a malicious payload. Testing shows that a fully patched Excel 2000, XP or 2003 is vulnerable to this exploit. McAfee Avert Labs is working with Microsoft to confirm the history of this vulnerability.

Upon opening the known variants of this malformed XLS document, it can perform the following:

Unpack the XOR-encrypted shellcode in memory Load KERNEL32.DLL using a hardcoded address specific to Windows XP Service Pack 2. On other versions of Windows, Excel will simply crash. Create a new fiile in %Temp%\top10.exe using API calls - GetTempPathA, and CreateFileA Seeks the opened file handle of the XLS file in memory using API call GetFileSize to match a specific filesize. Extract the payload from the XLS file and write it into %Temp%\top10.exe Execute %Temp%\top10.exeThis executable is a new variant of the BackDoor-CWA trojan.


Modifications are made to the system Registry and/or INI files for the purposes of hooking system startup.

hunter you nailed it, the message of avg says virus found Exploit.

Now I renamed the file name.old and move it somewhere else waiting for instructions.

I also tried to use one of those xls recover programs but the program couldn't enter the file due to the virus presence.

2 simple questions

1) is the data lost forever? the file is still 800+ kb as it was
2) the other xls files are ok, is there threat that they are infected too or will be in the near future? is the excel program dangerous now?

Another small question

I scanned with housecall trend micro and it didn't find the file, is that because that one isn't good as AVG?
GlobalEyes
also, I am trying to understand the removal process

Use specified engine and DAT files for detection.

Modifications made to the system Registry and/or INI files for the purposes of hooking system startup, will be successfully removed if cleaning with the current engine and the specified DATs (or higher). Older engines may not be able to remove all registry keys created by this threat.

-----------------------------------------------------

Does this mean that only mcafee will clean it?
Hunter
Submit that file to Virus total and they will scan it for you.

Virustotal offers a free service for scanning suspicious files using several antivirus engines.

http://www.virustotal.com/en/indexf.html

that will answer your questions as to who can ID it and if it is dangerous.

Also if you are not going to post your hijackthis log..please do not post in this Forum..it is specifically use for those members who want the Experts at GSF to analyse those type of logs and help people clean their PCs from infections that have exploited their system..even if they have an AntiVirus program installed that can not stop or identify completely the exploit.

Since you have not posted a log..we have no idea the condition of your System..or even what updates you have to your OS or browser.

Your AVG might also be giving you a False Positive..they have a Forum..you can ask about it there.
Read this post in there forum

http://forum.grisoft.cz/freeforum/read.php?3,84541,sv=

Then you should also post in their forum about your problem.

http://gappa2.grisoft.cz/freeforum/


If it is a false positive , turn off hueristic scanning for the time being. When Grisoft adjusts the virus defintions you can turn it back on.
Hunter
I think your problem is a false positive..and this is what they are telling people who use AVG today..suggest that you update you AVG manually..and maybe since they have fixed it..you can acces your file again..if not post in their forum about it.

AVG 7.5 finds virus exploit
Posted by: npacman (IP Logged)

I also have todays AVG update and the scan found 15 files, most are excel, with the virus exploit. It will not let me use these files, which I need to use for work. How can I get these back so I can open them?

At this time we expect them to be false positives... for now leave them in the vault and when Grisoft corrects their definitions you can restore them....

If you suspect a file to be a false positive. Test the file at [virusscan.jotti.org] and if it is a false positive, archive (zip, arc, tar etc) the file using a password and email a copy to virus@grisoft.com with a brief description as well as the password you used to archive it with.

If it is a false positive , turn off hueristic scanning for the time being. When Grisoft adjusts the virus defintions you can turn it back on. You may have to disable the Resident Shield for this if turning off hueristics doesn't help.

****************************

If it is a false positive , turn off hueristic scanning for the time being. When Grisoft adjusts the virus defintions you can turn it back on. If turning off Hueristics still doesn't allow access to the file while testing and emailing... disable the resident shield temporarily.

I thought HJT was only when nobody had a clue about the problem, but since we realized what the problem was I thought It was useless.

Anyway

First:
1. Please download The Avenger by Swandog46 to your Desktop.
  • Click on Avenger.zip to open the file
  • Extract avenger.exe to your desktop

2. Copy all the text (including the words 'Files to delete:') contained in the code box below to your Clipboard by highlighting it and pressing (Ctrl+C):

QUOTE
Files to delete:
C:\PROGRA~1\RXTOOL~1\sfcont.dll
C:\Windows\System32\winjgf32


Note: the above code was created specifically for this user. If you are not this user, do NOT follow these directions as they could damage the workings of your system.


3. Now, start The Avenger program by clicking on its icon on your desktop.
  • Under "Script file to execute" choose "Input Script Manually".
  • Now click on the Magnifying Glass icon which will open a new window titled "View/edit script"
  • Paste the text copied to clipboard into this window by pressing (Ctrl+V).
  • Click Done
  • Now click on the Green Light to begin execution of the script
  • Answer "Yes" twice when prompted.
4. The Avenger will automatically do the following:
  • It will Restart your computer. ( In cases where the code to execute contains "Drivers to Unload", The Avenger will actually restart your system twice.)
  • On reboot, it will briefly open a black command window on your desktop, this is normal.
  • After the restart, it creates a log file that should open with the results of Avenger’s actions. This log file will be located at C:\avenger.txt
  • The Avenger will also have backed up all the files, etc., that you asked it to delete, and will have zipped them and moved the zip archives to C:\avenger\backup.zip.
5. Please copy/paste the content of c:\avenger.txt into your reply along with a fresh HJT log by using Add/Reply


Second:
I recommend that you uninstall P2P Networking through Add/Remove Programs.
If/when asked whether you also want to remove Altnet components, say 'Yes'.

P2P Networking is a totally useless Kazaa add-on, and it's been reported to be responsible for serious system slowdowns.

Subsequently remove the P2P Networking folder in C:\Windows\System32, if still there.


Third:
Messenger Plus! 3 (and it predecessors) are a source of malware and will eventually compromise your system, if it has not already.

I strongly suggest that you remove Messenger Plus. Here's a page with instructions for proper removal of Messenger plus and it's sponsor.

Fourth:

Reboot in Safe Mode* and run HiJackThis. <-- IMPORTANT

Press the 'Scan' button and when done check the following items in HijackThis:
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [P2P Networking] C:\WINNT\system32\P2P Networking\P2P Networking.exe /AUTOSTART
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [AltnetPointsManager] c:\program files\altnet\points manager\points manager.exe -s
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [WinMsg] C:\WINNT\winmsgr.exe

Close all windows except HijackThis and click Fix checked.


While still in Safe Mode*, delete the following: (you may need to show hidden files**)
(Files specified without a full path will be located in C:\Windows\ or C:\Windows\System32\)
c:\program files\altnet\ <--delete entire folder,
C:\WINNT\winmsgr.exe


*How to Boot into Safe mode: http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/tsgen...001052409420406
**Show Hidden and System files and folders: http://www.xtra.co.nz/help/0,,4155-1916458,00.html

Also, uncheck the boxes for hiding known file extensions and hiding protected operating system files. We want to see it all. When we finish here, it would be a good idea to rehide the protected operating system files but leave the rest to be shown.

Reboot in normal mode
