Subject: New MyDoom variant




The SANS Institute reports a new variant of MyDoom in the wild actually not recognized by AV vendors:

New MyDoom On The Loose 

Initial analysis (we will update as we know more): 

Currently (16:00GMT), signatures are not yet available.
UPDATED (17:00GMT):
- Signatures are starting to come out, identifying this as MyDoom.O, MyDoom.P or Evaman.C
- It appears that this may only work on Win2K and WinXP machines because the executable requires psapi.dll.
- Copies itself to the Windows' system directory as winlibs.exe and installs itself under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
