September 8, 2016

Doctor Web’s specialists have discovered a new Linux Trojan written in the Rust programming language. The Trojan has been named Linux.BackDoor.Irc.16.

Linux.BackDoor.Irc.16 is a typical backdoor program that executes commands issued by cybercriminals via the IRC (Internet Relay Chat) protocol. The Trojan connects to the public chat channel specified in its configuration and awaits its instructions.

The Trojan can execute just four commands. It can connect to a specified chat channel; send cybercriminals information about an infected computer; send cybercriminals data about the applications running in a system; and delete itself from an infected machine.

Unlike the majority of its counterparts, Linux.BackDoor.Irc.16 is written in Rust, a programming language whose creation was sponsored by Mozilla Research. Its first stable version was released in 2015. Linux.BackDoor.Irc.16 was designed to be a cross-platform Trojan—to make a version for Windows, for example, cybercriminals can just recompile this malware program. Doctor Web’s analysts believe that Linux.BackDoor.Irc.16 is, in fact, a prototype (Proof of Concept), because it cannot replicate itself, and the IRC channel used by the Trojan to receive commands from cybercriminals is not currently active.

The signature for Linux.BackDoor.Irc.16 is already in the Dr.Web for Linux database, and it is successfully detected and removed by Doctor Web Anti-virus products.

if it's just about readers well this is normal ! very very very more normall than you and DrWeb Development, managers, admins thinks ! why? it's simple ! becuase since 2012 DrWeb attention to English Speakers and English forum Felled ! it really Decreased ! i mean it ! you can see that  in these two pics even in 2012 English Speakers and English forum was interested to news even more than own Russians users !

i don't think so

Bad for you. Playing WebIQMeter you could have earned drweb'ки - very nice artifacts, valuable in a way. But translating our news you don't earn neither those artifacts nor the users' attention. 

 

your'e trying to bypass the real problem here i think

Right, right.
