> Dynamic Trojan Horse Network Hybrid Threat Propagation
>
> Synopsis:
>
> ISS X-Force has been monitoring the spread of the Dynamic Trojan Horse
> Network (DTHN) Internet worm. DTHN propagates through email and
> through open NetBIOS file shares. DTHN installs itself and establishes
> communication to a sophisticated peer-to-peer communications network,
> to further spread infections and launch additional attacks.
>
> Impact:
>
> As with most network worms, DTHN propagation can cause network
> congestion, automatically compromise victim systems, and configure a
> sophisticated network that can be used for Distributed Denial of
> Service (DDOS). Once the backdoor is installed, it can be accessed
> by the author, or third party attackers.
