Trojan.APT.BaneChant is a Trojan that is recognized as an APT malware, which monitors mouse clicks and other techniques to avoid detection by many security software. Trojan.APT.BaneChant is spread via a Word document rigged with an exploit sent during targeted email attacks. The name of the document translates to 'Islamic Jihad.doc'. The malicious document carrying Trojan.APT.BaneChant might be used to target the governments of Middle East and Central Asia. The malicious document downloads and executes a component that attempts to determine if the operating environment is a virtualized one, like an anti-virus sandbox or an automated malware analysis system, by waiting to see if there's any mouse activity before starting the second attack stage. Trojan.APT.BaneChant waits for at least three mouse clicks before proceeding to decrypt a URL and download a backdoor program that pretends to be a .JPG image file.
