Fast Flux and New Domains for Storm
by Jose NazarioAt last week’s FIRST conference in Vancouver I presented on some of our ATLAS fast flux data. The slides aren’t yet available, but the ongoing reports in ATLAS have been reflected to continuously update some of the analysis we did. Some of the new reports include the lifetimes for each network, and the “distinct networks” section, which identifies related domains through shared botnet membership. ATLAS users can also get the updated blocklist of fast flux domains for use in stopping such attacks.
Just in time, too, the Storm Worm has begun using new fast flux domains. Messages look like this:
> Date: Sun, 29 Jun 2008 00:56:18 +0700
> From: hp_ejer@levelton.com
> Subject: You make my world special
-
> My heart belongs to you ht tp:/ /latinlovesite.com/
Here’s a list of all of the domains we’ve identified so far.
theloveparade.com NS ns5.lollypopycandy.com latinlovesite.com NS ns5.lollypopycandy.com youronlinelove.com NS ns5.lollypopycandy.com yourloveletter.com NS ns5.lollypopycandy.com makinglovedirect.com NS ns5.lollypopycandy.com lollypopycandy.com NS ns5.lollypopycandy.com
Storm has changed its tactics constantly in the past year and a half, and this “love theme” is nothing new. We’ll see how long this theme lasts.
