Badbunny, also known as SB/BadBunny-A (Sophos) and StarOffice/BadBunny (McAfee), is a multi-platform computer worm written in several scripting languages and distributed as an OpenOffice document containing a macro written in StarBasic.
Discovered on May 21, 2007, the worm spreads itself by dropping malicious script files that affect the behavior of popular IRC programs mIRC and X-Chat, causing it to send the worm to other users. [1]
If the macro is opened from the affected document, it loads a virus named Perl.Badbunny.[2 ] Upon loading, the user is shown a pornographic image of a man dressed as a rabbit making out with a woman in the woods.[3]
