Overview:

This paper explains about malware analysis, with a particular focus on exploit-based Internet worms that spread from one host to another over the network by exploiting software vulnerability in the new host being attacked. Based on experiences analyzing real worms that use this method of worm propagation it developed a model that divides this attack into three stages: the exploit vector where the machine being attacked is still running its vulnerable code, the bogus control data that is the part of the attack that is directly involved in control flow hijacking, and the payload where the worm code is being executed instead of the code of the attacked system.
