"According to Kaspersky Lab, there are several Chthonic-based botnets with different configurations, suggesting the malware is being used by different groups. 

Overall, the botnets we are aware of target online banking systems of over 150 different banks and 20 payment systems in 15 countries,” the company’s researchers said. “The cybercriminals seem most interested in banks in the UK, Spain, the US, Russia, Japan and Italy.

The new Trojan is primarily distributed in two ways: downloaded by another malware program called Andromeda or through rogue emails that contain specially crafted RTF documents which exploit a Microsoft Word vulnerability patched in March."
