Trojan.Sonso is a Trojan that opens a back door on the corrupted PC. Trojan.Sonso is a Google Chrome browser extension that runs in the system background when Google Chrome is operating. If 'chrome://extensions/' or 'chrome://extensions-frame' is opened, Trojan.Sonso reroutes the hijacked Internet browser to the specific web address. If Facebook is opened, Trojan.Sonso runs a script set at the specific web address. Trojan.Sonso then executes a GET request to the particular web address. When the extension starts for the first time, Trojan.Sonso opens Facebook and get.adobe.com/tr/flashplayer in the different windows of the hacked Internet browser. A warning box is then shown with the message in Turkish declaring that Flash Player has been updated. Trojan.Sonso aims at connecting to a few web addresses to run other malevolent scripts. Trojan.Sonso then shares itself to the victim's Facebook friends with an image added from the particular web address.
