Threat: Backdoor.Win32.Agent.aak
Vulnerability: Weak Hardcoded Credentials
Description: The HTTP backdoor server HBKDR v0.3 listens on TCP port 8080 and accepts HTTP POST requests in order to execute commands on the infected system. The malware hardcodes two sets of weak Base64 encoded credentials in the malware "ZnVjazpkYXY=" (fuck:dav) and "ZGV2Om51bGw=" (dev:null). The credentials can be viewed easily running string util against the malware executable. The backdoor also uses insecure BASIC authentication disclosing the username/password on the wire in a packet sniffing scenario.
