This Trojan program utilizes spoofing technology. It is made as a fake HTML page. It is designed to steal information from Postbank clients.
It arrives as a important message alledgedly sent by PostBank:
This message contains a link to the fake page; this link exploits the Frame Spoof vulnerability in Internet Explorer.
The Frame Spoof vulnerability (MS04-004) is present in Microsoft Internet Explorer v. 5.x and 6.x, and detailed in Microsoft Security Bulletin MS04-004. The document describes this vulnerability and gives recommendations on how to recognize spoofed sites.
Once a user visits the fake site, and enters account details or personal information, these details are sent to a malicious remote user, who will then have access to users' account.
Trojan-Spy programs are used to spy on a user’s actions (to track data entered by keyboard, make screen shots, retrieve a list of running applications, etc.) The harvested information is then transmitted to the malicious user controlling the Trojan. Email, FTP, the web (including data in a request) and other methods can be used to transmit the data.
