More Information

Troj/Tofger-AA is a multi-component Trojan which consists of a main dropper, a backdoor and a keylogging component.

C:\<Windows>\MSRT32.DLL
C:\<Windows>\SACHOST.EXE
C:\<Windows>\SYSINI.INI
C:\<Windows system>\SACHOSTC.EXE
C:\<Windows system>\SACHOSTS.EXE

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\Onluna Sarvice

SACHOST.EXE runs in the background as a service process, sends registration information to a remote website and logs keystrokes to the file sysini.ini.

Troj/Tofger-AA has backdoor functionality that allows a malicious user remote control over an infected computer. The Trojan opens several TCP ports and listens for backdoor commands.

Troj/Tofger-AA also attempts to download and execute updates from the internet.
