Mabir is a worm that operates on Symbian Series 60 devices, the Mabir worm is capable of spreading both over Bluetooth and MMS messages.

When Mabir.A infects a phone it will start searching other phones that in can reach over Bluetooth and send infected SIS files to the phones it finds.

The SIS files that files that Mabir.A sends have always the same file name "caribe.sis". Please note that while Mabir.A uses the name SIS file name as original Cabir worms, it is different worm than Cabir.

In addition of spreading over bluetooth the Mabir.A will also listen for any MMS or SMS messages that arrive to the infected phone. And respond to those messages with MMS message that contains Mabir as "info.sis".

The MMS messages that Mabir sends do not contain any text message, only the info.sis file

The MMS messages are multimedia messages that can be sent between Symbian phones and other phones that support MMS messaging. As the name says the MMS messages are intended to contain only media content, such as pictures, audio or video, but they can contain anything, including infected Symbian installation files.

question lang po kay murag na kuyawan ko ani da

i've got an SE phone, then someone sends me an MMS with that virus. will that damage my phone? or nothing happens to it? i hope it's the latter
