Inside Carberp Botnet
In early 2010, from MalwareIntelligence started researching a new botnet designed to agglutination of sensitive information relating to bank accounts, and theft of credentials to exploit a disturbing list of programs.
NOTE: At the bottom of this article may find the link to download the complete white paper, called "Inside Carberp Botnet", which describes the various internal components that make up Carberp.
Carberp, unlike SpyEye and ZeuS, was not (and neither is today) a crimeware mass marketed, but rather to a small group of people. Proof of this were (and are) a few C&C to operate the botnet. Also, to implement, require use licenses to use the constructor and the administration panel.
After a while with high levels of activity through these C&C, we are surprised when we noticed that gradually disappeared and even more so when the vast majority upgraded to the new version for less than two months. Still had a few C&C refused to disappear, although we believe that in fact the operating botmaster refused to set aside this malware.
During January this year Seculert published an article which talks about the new version of Carberp, with an entirely new panel and developments in the bot.
In MalwareIntelligence found only one C&C with these features, and we have several indications for which we believe is not an "official" version of Carberp, but a modification of the bot original interface and some features of crimeware.
These unique signs also be evidence of a possible breakup of the group behind the development, commercialization and exploitation of crimeware.
In recent weeks we have begun to notice an increased activity of new C&C Carberp. However, these do not correspond to the earlier version discussed in "Inside Carberp Botnet" but they are the same crimeware activity ceased in December 2010. This reinforces our theory that in fact the administration panel referenced by Seculert, it is not really the new Carberp.
Decided to resume research for more information about this "resurrection" of Carberp and, based on the knowledge we had of this botnet, publish our internal report. But also exposed through this the first results of the second part of the investigation.
Carberp has begun to be announced from the crimeware community, which until now had not happened and no doubt this is precisely why this has again become popular in the media.
Change of business model? Actually we can not guarantee yet, but it may be that this botnet is beginning to be marketed to expand coverage of the bid, or that some other criminal group (perhaps made by any member of the original group Carberp developer) has taken the opportunity to take a new version inspired by the original and try to commercialize it.
