reported that a new worm, W32/Cellery-A, poses as a playable version of the classic Russian computer game Tetris as it attempts to spread across networks
The Cellery worm, which gets its name from a message it displays saying "Chancellery", makes changes to Windows settings to ensure that it automatically runs when the operating system starts up. Whilst the Tetris-like arcade game is running it plays a MIDI music tune, and searches for other network drives and attached computers to also try and infect.
"This worm puts up the Tetris game as a smokescreen as it tries to hop from computer to computer across your network," said Graham Cluley, senior technology consultant for Sophos. "If your company has a culture of allowing games to be played in the office, your staff may believe this simply a new game that has been installed - rather than something that should cause concern."
