Dissecting the Exploits/Scareware Serving Twitter Spam Campaign
Yesterday's exploits-serving campaign spreading across Twitter, using automatically registered accounts "pinging" random Twitter users with links to the campaign, is worth profiling due to its state of maliciousness - if the end user is exploitable, exploits are served ultimately leading to scareware, and if he isn't, the cybercriminals behind it attempt to monetize through the same network used by the Koobface gang on Mac OS X hosts - zml.com.
Let's dissect the campaign, and once again emphasize on the fact just how small the cybercrime ecosystem could be, given enough historical data is gathered on who's who, who's what, and what's when.
Sample exploitation structure:
- qtoday.info /ttds/doit.php?ckey=12&schema=1&f=wF - 94.228.209.73 (AS47869), 75.125.222.242 (AS21844)
- qtoday.info /ttds/jump.php
- fqsmydkvsffz.com /tre/vena.html/RANDOM - 69.174.242.21 (AS13768); 75.125.222.242 (AS21844)
The scareware installed interacts with AS18866:
69.50.197.241 /up/e1.dat
69.50.197.241 /up/e2.dat
69.50.197.241 /data/upd6.dat
69.50.197.241 /data/upd7.dat
69.50.197.241 /data/upd1.dat
69.50.197.241 /data/upd2.dat
Responding to 69.50.197.241 (AS18866) are:

This isn't the first time Twitter's been abused for malicious purposes, and is definitely not the last. Quick community response and take down actions hit them where it hurts most - the monetization vector.
