RE: another rootkit - one more file (fwd)

[...]

- Rootkit installation script:

  echo "Copiando os arquivos necess.rios."

  This sounds like Portuguese or so, which probably tells us about
  its origins.

Yes, it is Portuguese. Actually "Brazilian Portuguese".

- It removes few patterns from logfiles. That would be: 200.195.86.*,
  200.248.162.*, 200.195.121.*, 200.243.17.*, netdados.com.br,
  usinet.com.br - I presume these are networks attacker used for
  defacements (how smart to put them in the script in this form!),


The IP ranges (all the 200.* are from Brazilian ISPs) and the lack of
further information seems to confirm the origin of the kit. I'm sure this is
some "private" Hax0r tool from one of the many Brazilian groups you can find
on alldas.de archives.

Cheers

Fernando
