Abstract(in English) This paper proposes a method to monitor life-cycle of malware download sites for websites and reports the actual life-cycle as monitored by web honeypots carrying vulnerable web applications on the Internet. Recently, a large number of websites are used by attackers as hopping sites to attack other websites and user terminals. To make hopping sites, many attackers use vulnerabilities in web applications to force victims to download malware themselves. To protect websites from these attacks, technologies filtering access from websites to malware download sites, which are set by attackers, are effective. However, to update filtering configuration, it is necessary to identify malware periodically since malware may be changed of removed from malware download sites. In this paper, we propose a method to update filtering configuration automatically based on dynamic malware analysis using attack recreation. Our investigation reveals that some malware files on malware download sites are changed to other kinds of malware. In addition, it reveals that life-cycle of malware download sites are similar to the life-cycle of web pages.
