More Information

W32/Korgo-Z is a network worm for the Windows platform.

W32/Korgo-Z spreads to other network computers by exploiting common buffer overflow vulnerabilites, including: LSASS (MS04-011) and RPC-DCOM (MS04-012).

When W32/Korgo-Z copies itself as dkxcj32.dll in Windows system folder.

The file dkxcj32.dll is registered as a COM object and ShellExecute hook, creating registry entries under:

HKCR\CLSID\ (D1589445-4C2D-4827-6486-8C9674D8B206)

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\ CurrentVersion\Explorer\ShellExecuteHooks\ (D1589445-4C2D-4827-6486-8C9674D8B206)

During infection the worm will also use the registry entries:
