New Malware: TROJ_DLOADER.BDM

A new malware was intercepted by our email honeypot system. The malicious file is relatively small with a file size of 1893 bytes. It arrives as an executable attachment along with an empty text file. The file is being spammed by a single particular person whose name varies with every email obtained, yet still shows that it came from the same person. It is now given a detection of TROJ_DLOADER.BDM. Fortunately, the download links are already down, so this malware no longer poses as a major threat. What’s interesting about this information? It is the idea that a single person can actually have enough time to spam a malicious file to others. There’s a possibility that there are also other people who do this as a hobby, or whatever. It’s best that we be careful and safe.
