Tibick.F

Summary

Tibick.F is a peer-to-peer (P2P) network application worm with IRC-command like backdoor/bot capabilities.

Removal

Based on the settings of your F-Secure security product, it will either move the file to the quarantine where it cannot spread or cause harm, or remove it.

A False Positive is when a file is incorrectly detected as harmful, usually because its code or behavior resembles known harmful programs. A False Positive will usually be fixed in a subsequent database update without any action needed on your part. If you wish, you may also:

  • Check for the latest database updates

    First check if your F-Secure security program is using the latest updates, then try scanning the file again.

  • Submit a sample

    After checking, if you still believe the file is incorrectly detected, you can submit a sample of it for re-analysis.

    Note: If the file was moved to quarantine, you need to collect the file from quarantine before you can submit it.

  • Exclude a file from further scanning

    If you are certain that the file is safe and want to continue using it, you can exclude it from further scanning by the F-Secure security product.

    Note: You need administrative rights to change the settings.

Technical Details

The Tibick.F worm spreads via peer-to-peer (P2P) network applications.

Upon execution, it drops a file named "svcnet.exe" into the Windows system folder.

The dropped file is set to run during Windows startup with the following registry key:

  • HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run Shell API32 "svcnet.exe"

Tibick.F adds itself to the list of Windows Firewall trusted applications.

It checks for Internet connectivity by creating a connection to

http://tbc3.hanged.tk

Tibick.F also acts as a backdoor or as a bot, and listens for IRC-commands from a remote attacker.

It spreads itself via the following P2P applications:

  • EMULE
  • IMESH
  • KAZAA
  • MORPHEUS
  • WAREZ

To spread itself, users of the P2P network must download the worm's file. An appealing file name encourages downloads.
