Neue Zafi-Variante nutzt Weihnachtsvorfreude aus

(PresseBox) (Mainz, )
Die Antiviren-Experten des Computersicherheitsspezialisten Sophos haben einen neuen Wurm entdeckt, der sich im Moment massenhaft per E-Mail verbreitet und die allgemeine Weihnachtsstimmung ausnützt. Das Schadprogramm W32/Zafi-D, das wahrscheinlich aus Ungarn stammt, verführt die Empfänger, den Dateianhang auszuführen, indem es eine vorweihnachtliche Grußkarte anbietet. Die E-Mails sind mehrsprachig und kommen auf Englisch, Französisch, Spanisch und Ungarisch in der Posteingangsbox an. In den Betreffzeilen stehen folgende Wörter: ‘FW: Merry Christmas’, ‘Happy HollyDays!’ und ‘Feliz Navidad!’. Innerhalb der E-Mail ist eine geschmacklose animierte Grafik eingebaut, die zwei Smiley-Gesicher zeigt.

Sobald der Empfänger die angehängte infizierte Datei ausführt, zeigt Zafi-D folgende Fehlermeldung: ‘CRC: 04F6Bh Gmtlk jt dgvulb mpxv!.
