Threat: Backdoor.Win32.DarkKomet.bhfh
Vulnerability: Insecure Permissions
Description: DarkKomet.bhfh creates a hidden dir named "System" under c: drive and drops an EXE named "ÚÈÏÇáÑÍãä.exe". After logoff, any standard user can just delete and replace the executable as DarkKomet grants change (C) permissions to the authenticated users group.
