.mech
There has been a lot of traffic on a machine lately.
Someone noticed a .mech/.stealth directory in /var/tmp/...
which looks kind of like a virus. It does suspicious
things. There is a file called cyc.pid which contains
a process id. When I did a ps on the ID I found only
"ps" was running. However, in that same directory I noticed
an executable called "ps". The ps on ps showed it had been
running for the last 4 or 5 days, and a regular linux ps runs
no more than a few seconds. There is also an executable there
called "pico" and several server files all pointing to undernet.org.
Has anyone else run into this? Is it a virus? Is like an
IRC bot. What can be done?
