クラス: Email-Worm
Email-Wormsは電子メールで広がります。ワームは、電子メールメッセージへの添付ファイル、またはネットワークリソース上のファイルへのリンク（例えば、侵害されたWebサイトやハッカー所有のWebサイト上の感染ファイルへのURL）として自身のコピーを送信します。最初のケースでは、感染した添付ファイルが開かれた（起動された）ときにワームコードがアクティブになります。 2番目のケースでは、感染ファイルへのリンクが開かれたときにコードが有効になります。どちらの場合も、結果は同じです：ワームコードが有効になっています。 Email-Wormは、感染した電子メールを送信するためにさまざまな方法を使用します。最も一般的なのは、Windows MAPI機能を使用するMS Outlookサービスを使用してワームのコードに組み込まれた電子メールディレクトリを使用してSMTPサーバーに直接接続することです。 Email-Wormsは、感染した電子メールが送信される電子メールアドレスを見つけるためにいくつかの異なるソースを使用しています：MS Outlookのアドレス帳ハードドライブに格納されたWABアドレスデータベース.txtファイル：ワームはテキストファイルのどの文字列メールボックスは、受信ボックス内の電子メールアドレスを扱います（一部の電子メールワームは、受信ボックスにある電子メールにも「返信」します）。多くのEメールワームは、上記のソースのうちの複数を使用します。 Webベースの電子メールサービスに関連付けられたアドレス帳など、電子メールアドレスの他のソースもあります。プラットフォーム: Win32
Win32は、32ビットアプリケーションの実行をサポートするWindows NTベースのオペレーティングシステム（Windows XP、Windows 7など）上のAPIです。世界で最も広く普及しているプログラミングプラットフォームの1つです。ファミリー: Email-Worm.Win32.Joleee

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.

T1203
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.
