Virus Warning: MP3Virus.Gen


2004-03-20

MP3Concept is a proof-of-concept Trojan targetted at the Mac OS X platform, that is currently not seen “in the wild”. It is not spreading or infecting Mac users. The proof-of-concept program does not contain any malicious payload such as viral code, ablity to email itself or perform destructive functions such as deleting files. It only contains code to display a message box and mp3 audio data of a man laughing.


The MP3Concept file will appear to be an ordinary mp3 file due to the mp3 icon. When the file is executed by double clicking on the icon it does the following:

- Display a message box with the text “Yep, this is an application (So what is your iTunes playing right now?)”.
- Launch iTunes and play the mp3 file which is the sound of a man laughing.

When the file is loaded directly by iTunes, by using the "Add to Library..." menu command, it gets registered in the library as the song "Wild Laugh".Playing the song "Wild Laugh", only plays the music file of the man laughing and does not display the message box.
