It's been detected and reverse engineered. We know what exploits it uses, we know what systems it targets, and we know what it does. No magic or rocket science involved. I don't care how crafty you make it, I can still step through it in a debugger, or disassemble it and start looking at the individual instructions being issued to the processor.
It's still a very unique specimen amongst malware variants, I won't debate that though. If anything, it underscores how primitive the average malware an IT guy face is, and how long a sophisticated variant can go undetected if you leave vulnerabilities in place.
