============================================================================ PC Viruses in the Wild - December 22, 1996 ============================================================================ This is a cooperative listing of viruses reported as being in the wild by 45 virus information professionals. The basis for these reports are virus incidents where a sample was received, and positively identified by the participant. Rumors and unverified reports have been excluded. This report is cumulative. That is, this is not just a report of which were seen last month. Monthly data is received from most participants, but the new data is added to the old. Participants are expected to let me know when I should remove their name from a virus that they haven't seen in a year and a half or so. The list should not be considered a list of "the most common viruses", however, since no specific provision is made for a commonness factor. This data indicates only "which" viruses are in the wild, but viruses reported by many (or most) participants are obviously widespread. The WildList is current being used as the basis for in-the-wild virus testing of antivirus products by Virus Bulletin and the NCSA (National Computer Security Association). Additionally, a virus collection based upon the WildList is being used in an effort to standardize the naming of common viruses. The WildList - (c)1993-1997 by Joe Wells - wildlist@vcnet.com ============================================================================ The section below gives the names of participants, along with their geographic region, organization, and antivirus product (if any). The locations with an asterisk (*) note that the reports are regional, all others being multinational or global.

Technically, this first list is "the" WildList according to my original specification, which required viruses to be verified in the wild by a minimum of two participants. A supplemental list follows that contains viruses reported by single participants. If a virus listed has minor variants, but no specific variant letter is attached, the virus meant is the .A variant. Please note that all the MS Word macro viruses are grouped under WM.name. + Viruses marked with a plus sign (+) are new to the main list this month.

As was noted at the start of the main list, this list is not, technically, part of "The WildList" as I have defined it. By design, the WildList is a list of viruses verified as being in the wild by a minimum of two WildList participants. The viruses listed below do not currently meet that criteria. This additional list includes viruses reported by a single participant and are often either moving onto the main list, or dropping off of it. Please note especially that this list also tends to be more of a regional reporting mechanism. For example, a virus is often reported as very common by one regional participant, but is found nowhere else in the world. Viruses marked with a minus sign (-) dropped off the main list this month.

============================================================================ Total for both lists: 375 ============================================================================ Release notes for the December 15 list: The November 1996 WildList was skipped for various reasons. This version of the WildList is the result of a concerted effort by myself and the participants to indentify exactly which macro viruses are currently in the wild. Note that this effort has resulted in more macro virus variants (especially Concept and Wazzu variants) to appear on both lists. Special thanks goes to Jimmy Kuo for his assistance in this effort. This release also adds a new feature. A list of most frequently reported viruses precedes the main list. This has been requested by many people. I am continuously seeking WildList participants, especially for regional reporting in the following countries: Bulgaria, Chile, China, Denmark, Greece, Indonesia, Phillipines, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, South Korea, Spain, Thailand, Turkey, and Ukraine. Such new participants will need to be in a position where they can monitor and verify virus incidents. People who develop av products are best suited. People who represent one or more av products (agents) and provide localized support may also be qualified if they actually verify the viruses or forward samples to developers. If you thus qualify, please send your name, location, organization, product name, favorite brand of beer, and references (preferably CARO members who know you). Send the information to wildlist@vcnet.com. Thanks. ============================================================================ The collation of this list is done by Joe Wells, Editor of the IBM web site for virus information, www.av.ibm.com, who is solely responsible for its contents. The latest WildList is always posted directly by me to the NCSA Security forum on Compuserve, in the Virus Info/Tools library. The official archive location for the WildList is ftp.ncsa.com in pub/virus/wildlist. A complete archive of WildLists is available at the Virus Bulletin web site (http://www.virusbtn.com/WildLists/index.html). The WildList is copyright material, but may be freely quoted or cited in part or in whole. No permission is needed to reprint the list. All mail in regard to the WildList should be sent to wildlist@vcnet.com. ============================================================================ WildList Vol.612 - (c)1993-1997 Joe Wells - 75511,635 - wildlist@vcnet.com ============================================================================ -----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK----- Version: 2.7 mQCNAy+wAnYAAAEEAO2alE3YclXZAxkqrSVXkhAuuOsx6NnVfUdKMghYtrBabFuJ +zKiIsahmjeakA2J101KZOHtKMhb5iqLG0oCbRyuBFLtuMhJrjk+L9VRCoxoDB/4 XwFevOGyxRHYfancrIydlMUooe7TZJqbGhhQEROWYm8v6RvkPFtsMpyD+Lb1AAUR tCNKb2UgV2VsbHMgPGMxandlbGxzQHdhdHNvbi5pYm0uY29tPg== =aKXf -----END PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK----- ============================================================================
