Kaspersky impressed by botnet slickness

Cybercrime fighter Eugene Kaspersky can't help but be impressed by the slick operations behind the Conficker botnet, and says that it could have been worse had the botnet been after more than just money.



"They are high-end engineers who write code in a good way," Kaspersky told ZDNet.com.au yesterday. "They use cryptographic systems in the right way, they don't make mistakes — they are really professional."

Kaspersky hit with SQL injection

A group of Romanian hackers had sent a warning email to Kaspersky that an imminent attack is about to happen, and it in fact did just that, 1 hour after sending the email. The attack was a SQL injection into the company's database, but was unable to extract any real data, because the hackers were not advanced enough to. An obviously embarrassed Kaspersky, an anti-virus and Internet security software developer, was ashamed that their web site was breached. The attack made an SQL injection on the newly launched US web site, which could ruin the company's reputation in the market of Internet security.

Germans choose Kaspersky over McAfee and Symantec

More than 35 thousand readers of the German magazine PC Praxis have named Kaspersky Internet Security “Product of the Year” under the category of “IT security”. This year is the first time Kaspersky Lab’s Internet Security product has bypassed its main competitors on the German market, Symantec and McAfee solutions. Kaspersky Internet Security 7.0 protects PCs from viruses and other types of malicious programs, hacker attacks and spam. PC Praxis is an authoritative German weekly magazine for advanced users and IT professionals that has a circulation of about 150 thousand. Although Kaspersky’s security products have trouble grabbing market share from competitors Symantec and McAfee, the company’s solutions often receive top results in terms of detection rates and various other security tests.

Kaspersky: Vista Firewall Not Enough Alone

Kaspersky Lab, a leading developer of secure content management solutions, has released a new analytical article on using leak tests to evaluate firewall effectiveness by Nikolay Grebennikov, deputy director of the Department of Innovative Technologies. According to Grebennikov, due to the increase in the number of malicious programs, the additional security provided by a firewall is increasingly pertinent since firewalls block undesirable network traffic. He states that even the latest operating systems, such as Windows Vista, cannot block all types of leaks on their own (although, from Windows XP SP2 onwards, Windows has included a firewall. Firewall functionality was significantly expanded in Windows Vista).

Kaspersky false alarm quarantines Windows Explorer

A faulty signature update from Kaspersky Lab on Wednesday flagged up Windows Explorer (explorer.exe) as infected with a low-risk virus, Huhk-C. As a result the core Windows component was quarantined or worse.



Kaspersky released a revised update alongside advice on how to recover legitimate system and application files from quarantine (the default setting) within two hours. But that's not much consolation for users that had set their software to auto-delete infected files, who found themselves with hosed systems.



Among those affected was Reg reader Carl. "A false positive caused the deletion of explorer.exe.," he reports. "It would have only caused problems for companies performing their network scan during the hours that the dodgy update was present - which included me, unfortunately. I was working out of hours to fix the previous Kaspersky update problem. I finally finished sorting it all at 5am.".

Dutch police request Malware removal How-To?

The Dutch High Tech Crime Unit identified a large botnet when they arrested a 19 year old Dutch man last week. The Unit asked Kaspersky Lab, a leading developer of secure content management solutions, to provide the victims with instructions on how to neutralize the malware on their systems; neutralizing the malware ultimately brings down the botnet. This is an excellent example of the close co-operation which exists between the antivirus industry and law enforcement.

At the request of the Dutch police, Kaspersky Lab created detailed instructions on how to remove the malware. The Dutch police have pointed victims towards a page on the Kaspersky Lab website which contains the removal instructions, and also to a website which gives victims the opportunity to make a formal complaint to the police. Eddy Willems, Security Evangelist with Kaspersky Lab Benelux, who worked closely with the High Tech Crime Unit, believes this case clearly illustrates how the security industry can help law enforcement in the fight against cybercrime. A spokesperson for the Public Prosecution Service agrees: "The Public Prosecution Service and the police worked together with Kaspersky Lab on this case with full contentment".

Kaspersky predicts Vista security holes

Antivirus experts from Kaspersky Labs have predicted that 90 percent of current malware will run on Microsoft's latest operating system, Windows Vista. Although at the moment Vista appears to be more secure than previous Windows operating systems, Kaspersky researchers warned last week that as Vista becomes more popular, it will increasingly become a target for hackers.

"We're not asking whether vulnerabilities will be found, but when," said Alexander Gostev, principal antivirus researcher for Kaspersky. According to Gostev, one of the first pieces of the operating system to be attacked will be PatchGuard, the code that protects the Vista kernel.

"One of the first things to be targeted will be the technology which is meant to make getting access to the kernel more difficult," said Gostev. "Particularly because there are already approaches for evaluating this technology."

Kaspersky Detects New Worms Attacking MySpace and Facebook

Kaspersky Labs, has detected two variants of a new worm, Networm.Win32.Koobface.a. and Networm.Win32.Koobface.b, which attack MySpace and Facebook users.

The worms transform victims machines into zombie computers to form botnets which are used to create DDOS attacks and send spam email.

Net-Worm.Win32.Koobface.a infects the user when they access accesses their MySpace account. The worm creates a range of commentaries to friends' accounts.

Net-Worm.Win32.Koobface.b, targets Facebook users, creates spam messages and sends them to the infected users' friends via the Facebook site.

The messages and comments include texts such as "Paris Hilton Tosses Dwarf On The Street"; "Examiners Caught Downloading Grades From The Internet"; "Hello; You must see it!!! LOL. My friend catched you on hidden cam"; "Is it really celebrity? Funny Moments and many others".

Kaspersky Ships Vista AV Support

Software maker Kaspersky Lab has released its initial anti-virus products that support Microsoft's new Vista operating system. Shipped on Dec. 28, the software is a beta version of a maintenance update for Kaspersky's Anti-Virus 6.0 and Internet Security products that includes the new support for Vista, which was introduced by Microsoft in mid-November 2006.

While the first Vista-oriented products built by Kaspersky, which has its headquarters in Moscow, Russia, cover the company's consumer-oriented technologies, the firm is in the process of creating versions of its enterprise security applications that will be tailored to work with the Microsoft OS. Kaspersky has yet to disclose publicly an official date when those products will arrive.

Built with a number of security tools onboard, including anti-virus capabilities, some industry watchers have predicted that the arrival of Vista will make it harder for mid-tier software makers such as Kaspersky to compete, as Microsoft's entry to the market will also push industry leaders Symantec and McAfee to cut pricing for their own applications.

Researcher to Demonstrate Attack Code for Intel Chips

Security researcher and author Kris Kaspersky plans to demonstrate how an attacker can target flaws in Intel's microprocessors to remotely attack a computer using javascript or TCP/IP packets, regardless of what operating system the computer is running.

Kaspersky will demonstrate how such an attack can be made in a presentation at the upcoming Hack In The Box (HITB) Security Conference in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, during October. The proof-of-concept attacks will show how processor bugs, called errata, can be exploited using certain instruction sequences and a knowledge of how Java compilers work, allowing an attacker to take control of the compiler.

"I'm going to show real working code...and make it publicly available," Kaspersky said, adding that CPU bugs are a growing threat and malware is being written that targets these vulnerabilities.

Kaspersky: Mac and Linux viruses to rise 'significantly'

Eugene Kaspersky, co-founder and head of anti-virus research at Kaspersky Labs, claims that because Vista hasn't entered the market with a bang, some customers will start moving towards both the Mac and open-source platforms, making them a more attractive target for malware writers. Kaspersky claims that Mac viruses are no more difficult to repel than Windows attacks, but says " it's not so easy to find good experts for non-Windows platforms ." On the other hand, " more people are watching open-source code, so they are more quick to find problems. If the people who make the fix are good guys, that's great; if they are bad guys, that's a problem ." Although Kaspersky agrees Vista is fundamentally more secure than XP, he says not all security vendors have perfected their software for Vista yet. " Is a less protected XP with a ready set of security applications better than a more secure Vista with less developed security applications? Microsoft paid a lot of attention to security , but it means less flexibility for security vendors ."

Kaspersky also warned that malware writers are increasingly turning their attention to non-PC platforms, including consoles and smartphones. He makes an example out of Sony's new console, saying that " if there are viruses for the PlayStation 3, if the situation is such that we have to have protection for these devices, we will have products ." The Russian also claims that foreign malware experts are growing wise to new developments in the smartphone arena and predicts that " this year they are going to introduce online banking through smartphones and Chinese hackers will turn to smartphone phishing ".
