Threat: Backdoor.Win32.Symmi.qua
Vulnerability: Remote Stack Buffer Overflow (SEH)
Description: The malware listens on two random high TCP ports, when connecting (ncat) one port will return a single character like "โฃ" ord(a) "9827" the other ports return no response, target the non responsive port. Third-party adversaries who can detect and reach the server can send a specially crafted payload triggering a stack buffer overflow overwriting the Structured Exception Handler (SEH).
