Classe: Worm
Worms espalhados em redes de computadores através de recursos de rede. Diferentemente do Net-Worms, um usuário deve iniciar um Worm para que ele seja ativado. Esse tipo de worm pesquisa redes de computadores remotas e copia a si mesmo para diretórios que são acessíveis para leitura / gravação (se encontrar algum). Além disso, esses worms usam funções integradas do sistema operacional para procurar diretórios de rede acessíveis e / ou pesquisam aleatoriamente computadores na Internet, conectam-se a eles e tentam obter acesso total aos discos desses computadores. Essa categoria também abrange os worms que, por um motivo ou outro, não se encaixam em nenhuma das outras categorias definidas acima (por exemplo, worms para dispositivos móveis).Plataforma: Win32
O Win32 é uma API em sistemas operacionais baseados no Windows NT (Windows XP, Windows 7, etc.) que oferece suporte à execução de aplicativos de 32 bits. Uma das plataformas de programação mais difundidas do mundo.Família: Worm.Win32.WBNA

Tactics and Techniques: Mitre*
TA0002
Execution
The adversary is trying to run malicious code.
Execution consists of techniques that result in adversary-controlled code running on a local or remote system. Techniques that run malicious code are often paired with techniques from all other tactics to achieve broader goals, like exploring a network or stealing data. For example, an adversary might use a remote access tool to run a PowerShell script that does Remote System Discovery.

Exploitation for Client Execution
Adversaries may exploit software vulnerabilities in client applications to execute code. Vulnerabilities can exist in software due to unsecure coding practices that can lead to unanticipated behavior. Adversaries can take advantage of certain vulnerabilities through targeted exploitation for the purpose of arbitrary code execution. Oftentimes the most valuable exploits to an offensive toolkit are those that can be used to obtain code execution on a remote system because they can be used to gain access to that system. Users will expect to see files related to the applications they commonly used to do work, so they are a useful target for exploit research and development because of their high utility.
Several types exist:
### Browser-based Exploitation
Web browsers are a common target through Drive-by Compromise and Spearphishing Link. Endpoint systems may be compromised through normal web browsing or from certain users being targeted by links in spearphishing emails to adversary controlled sites used to exploit the web browser. These often do not require an action by the user for the exploit to be executed.
### Office Applications
Common office and productivity applications such as Microsoft Office are also targeted through Phishing. Malicious files will be transmitted directly as attachments or through links to download them. These require the user to open the document or file for the exploit to run.
### Common Third-party Applications
Other applications that are commonly seen or are part of the software deployed in a target network may also be used for exploitation. Applications such as Adobe Reader and Flash, which are common in enterprise environments, have been routinely targeted by adversaries attempting to gain access to systems. Depending on the software and nature of the vulnerability, some may be exploited in the browser or require the user to open a file. For instance, some Flash exploits have been delivered as objects within Microsoft Office documents.
