Ransomware RegretLocker baru menargetkan mesin virtual Windows

December 11, 2020 by Winnie the Pooh

Ransomware baru bernama RegretLocker menggunakan berbagai fitur canggih yang memungkinkannya mengenkripsi hard drive virtual dan menutup file yang terbuka untuk enkripsi. RegretLocker ditemukan pada bulan Oktober dan merupakan ransomware sederhana dalam hal tampilan karena tidak berisi catatan tebusan bertele-tele dan menggunakan email untuk komunikasi daripada situs pembayaran Tor. Saat mengenkripsi file, itu akan menambahkan ekstensi .mouse yang terdengar tidak berbahaya ke nama file yang dienkripsi.

Apa yang kurang dalam penampilannya, bagaimanapun, itu menggantikan fitur-fitur canggih yang biasanya tidak kita lihat dalam infeksi ransomware, seperti di bawah ini.

RegretLocker memasang hard disk virtual. Saat membuat mesin virtual Windows Hyper-V, hard disk virtual dibuat dan disimpan dalam file VHD atau VHDX. File hard disk virtual ini berisi image disk mentah, termasuk tabel partisi dan partisi drive, dan seperti drive disk biasa, ukurannya dapat berkisar dari beberapa gigabyte hingga terabyte. Ketika ransomware mengenkripsi file di komputer, tidak efisien untuk mengenkripsi file besar karena memperlambat kecepatan seluruh proses enkripsi.

Dalam sampel ransomware yang ditemukan oleh MalwareHunterTeam dan dianalisis oleh Vitali Kremez dari Intel Canggih, RegretLocker menggunakan teknik menarik untuk memasang file disk virtual sehingga setiap filenya dapat dienkripsi secara individual. Setelah drive virtual dipasang sebagai disk fisik di Windows, ransomware dapat mengenkripsi masing-masing satu per satu, yang meningkatkan kecepatan enkripsi. Selain menggunakan Virtual Storage API, RegretLocker juga menggunakan Windows Restart Manager API untuk menghentikan proses atau layanan Windows yang membuat file tetap terbuka selama enkripsi. Saat menggunakan API ini, Kremez memberi tahu BleepingComputer jika nama suatu proses berisi ‘vnc’, ‘ssh’, ‘mstsc’, ‘System’, atau ‘svchost.exe’, ransomware tidak akan menghentikannya. Daftar pengecualian ini kemungkinan besar digunakan untuk mencegah penghentian program kritis atau yang digunakan oleh pelaku ancaman untuk mengakses sistem yang dikompromikan.

Fitur Windows Restart Manager hanya digunakan oleh beberapa ransomware seperti REvil (Sodinokibi), Ryuk, Conti, ThunderX / Ako, Medusa Locker, SamSam, dan LockerGoga. RegretLocker tidak terlalu aktif saat ini, tetapi ini adalah keluarga baru yang perlu kita awasi.
