Sınıf: Email-Worm
Email-Worms e-posta yoluyla yayıldı. Solucan, kendisinin bir kopyasını bir e-posta mesajının eki olarak veya bir ağ kaynağındaki dosyasına bir bağlantı olarak gönderir (örn., Ele geçirilmiş bir web sitesindeki veya hacker'ın sahip olduğu bir web sitesinde virüslü bir dosyanın URL'si). İlk durumda, virüslü eklenti açıldığında (başlatıldığında) solucan kodu devreye girer. İkinci durumda, virüs bulaşan dosyaya bağlantı açıldığında kod etkinleştirilir. Her iki durumda da, sonuç aynıdır: solucan kodu etkinleştirildi. Email-Worms, virüslü e-posta göndermek için bir dizi yöntem kullanır. En yaygın olanları şunlardır: Windows MAPI işlevlerini kullanarak MS Outlook hizmetlerini kullanarak solucan koduna yerleşik e-posta dizini kullanarak bir SMTP sunucusuna doğrudan bağlantı kullanarak. E-posta solucanları, virüslü e-postaların gönderileceği e-posta adreslerini bulmak için bir dizi farklı kaynak kullanır: MS Outlook'taki adres defteri, sabit sürücüde saklanan bir WAB adres veritabanı .txt dosyaları: solucan, metin dosyalarındaki hangi dizeleri belirleyebilir e-posta adreslerini gelen kutunuzda e-postalar (bazı e-posta-solucanlar gelen kutucukta bulunan e-postalara bile "cevap verir") Birçok e-posta solucanı, yukarıda listelenen kaynaklardan daha fazlasını kullanır. Web tabanlı e-posta hizmetleriyle ilişkili adres defterleri gibi başka e-posta adresleri kaynakları da vardır.Platform: Win32
Win32, 32-bit uygulamaların yürütülmesini destekleyen Windows NT tabanlı işletim sistemlerinde (Windows XP, Windows 7, vb.) Bir API'dir. Dünyanın en yaygın programlama platformlarından biri.Aile: Email-Worm.Win32.LovGate

Tactics and Techniques: Mitre*
TA0007
Discovery
The adversary is trying to figure out your environment.
Discovery consists of techniques an adversary may use to gain knowledge about the system and internal network. These techniques help adversaries observe the environment and orient themselves before deciding how to act. They also allow adversaries to explore what they can control and what’s around their entry point in order to discover how it could benefit their current objective. Native operating system tools are often used toward this post-compromise information-gathering objective.

Remote System Discovery
Adversaries may attempt to get a listing of other systems by IP address, hostname, or other logical identifier on a network that may be used for Lateral Movement from the current system. Functionality could exist within remote access tools to enable this, but utilities available on the operating system could also be used such as Ping or
Adversaries may also analyze data from local host files (ex:
Adversaries may also target discovery of network infrastructure as well as leverage Network Device CLI commands on network devices to gather detailed information about systems within a network (e.g.
net view using Net.Adversaries may also analyze data from local host files (ex:
C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc\hosts or /etc/hosts) or other passive means (such as local Arp cache entries) in order to discover the presence of remote systems in an environment.Adversaries may also target discovery of network infrastructure as well as leverage Network Device CLI commands on network devices to gather detailed information about systems within a network (e.g.
show cdp neighbors, show arp).(Citation: US-CERT-TA18-106A)(Citation: CISA AR21-126A FIVEHANDS May 2021) TA0011
Command and Control
The adversary is trying to communicate with compromised systems to control them.
Command and Control consists of techniques that adversaries may use to communicate with systems under their control within a victim network. Adversaries commonly attempt to mimic normal, expected traffic to avoid detection. There are many ways an adversary can establish command and control with various levels of stealth depending on the victim’s network structure and defenses.

Application Layer Protocol: Mail Protocols
Adversaries may communicate using application layer protocols associated with electronic mail delivery to avoid detection/network filtering by blending in with existing traffic. Commands to the remote system, and often the results of those commands, will be embedded within the protocol traffic between the client and server.
Protocols such as SMTP/S, POP3/S, and IMAP that carry electronic mail may be very common in environments. Packets produced from these protocols may have many fields and headers in which data can be concealed. Data could also be concealed within the email messages themselves. An adversary may abuse these protocols to communicate with systems under their control within a victim network while also mimicking normal, expected traffic.
