RE: [Full-Disclosure] Backdoor not recognized by Kaspersky

>>Attached backdoor not recognized by Kaspersky or Norton 2004?

It's Bagle/Beagle.J. The problem is that the file is password-protected, so 
it's not
obvious how a scanner will get it until it's opened. Notice that the e-mail 
includes the
password ("65316"). In fact Norton finds it when the ZIP is opened and the 
extracted
file hits the file system.

Attached backdoor not recognized by Kaspersky or Norton 2004?  I received this 
file
recently, but Kaspersky did not detect malicious code.  Wondering if any of you 
guys
know about it or have analyzed it before?  It is definitely NOT a text 
document.  I
opened it up with WinHex and see the file "yfivyjmg.exe" in there towards the 
beginning.
Looks to be a packed exe within, and first few bytes are:

504B03040A0001000000C07E62309FE242510C300000003000000C00000079666976796A6D67

E8A39241

Last few bytes are:

E19F9DC6E1E9F0FAA7CD925D18C9104DCA9DF88955F8AEBD81D036BCB930889EAE0D2BA2A6EF

0000003000000C000000000000000100200000000000000079666976796A6D672E657865504B
050600000000010001003A000000363000000000

I am reluctant to open the zip right now, as I fear it may be exploiting an 
overflow to
run the EXE file within.  I may try to open it on a virtual machine later, but 
if you
guys do know anything about this one please let me know.  It's nice and small 
too (12
KB)!  Wonder if the guy wrote it himself. Of course, the IP address is spoofed 
to a
University of Chicago machine.  Is it even possible to trace back?  I still 
have the
full headers, but they looked nicely stripped to the gills.  I have been 
receiving
elevated attacks via email over the last few days, so maybe it is some guy on 
this list
trying to get me ;-)  One previous email stated that it was the FBI and to call 
a number
listed in the email.  This was most likely an attempt to get the number I was 
calling
from.  This guy thinks he's smooth...
