Cross-Platform Virus Discovered, and Spreading.

BadBunny, a malware targeting OpenOffice documents is spreading through multiple operating systems, namely Mac OS, Windows and Linux. This amazed me so much when seeing this particular virus creator is following the software trend, cross platforms.

How does it spread? In short, this worm enters the computer as an OpenOffice document “badbunny.odg“, once opened by the user, it launches a macro that acts differently depends on the operating system.

On Windows – It creates a new file called “drop.bad” which stores in system.ini in the user’s mIRC folder. “badbunny.js” Javascript virus is also executed to replicate files in the folder.
On Mac OS – It creates Ruby script viruses in files “badbunny.rb” and “badbunnya.rb“
On Linux – It creates “badbunny.py” as XChat script and “badbunny.pl” as a Perl virus.

This virus is distributed via IRC’s DCC file sending (the “badbunny.odg” file).
