Introduction • It targets users of Mac OS X • As even the malware itself admits, it is not yet finished. • It could be indicative of more underground programmers taking note of Apple's increasing market share.
Introduction • Not the first backdoor Trojan for OS X. • HellRaiser(OSX/HellRTS)_by McAfee • This Trojan was detected earlier in 2010. • BlackHole RAT has the classic client-server architecture. • The server (the Trojan itself) works only on Intel-based OS X machines, while the client works also on Microsoft Windows.
How to Work • Infects computers(Victims)through downloads over the Web or a vulnerability in your browser, plugins, and other applications. • The server will also open ports such as 10005, 10004, 10001, 10000, 9999, 7781, 7782, 7780, and 7779. • The attacker can use the client to connect to the victim’s machine on port 7777 and open port 7778 to accept incoming connections
Method • Sophos calls it OSX/MusMinim-A, or 'MusMinim‘ • Its functions include: • Placing text files on the desktop • Sending a restart, shutdown or sleep command • Running arbitrary shell commands • Placing a full screen window with a message that only allows you to click reboot • Sending URLs to the client to open a website • Popping up a fake "Administrator Password" window to phish the target

Default text that is displayed in the full screen window with the reboot button: "I am a Trojan Horse, so i have infected your Mac Computer. I know, most people think Macs can't be infected, but look, you ARE Infected!I have full controll over your Computer and i can do everything I want, and you can do nothing to prevent it.So, Im a very new Virus, under Development, so there will be much more functions when im finished."
Conclusion • BlackHole RAT Trojan seems to be copying the behavior of DarkComet • The author deny this relationship • Easy to kill • Check port • kill process
