Cl0p Goes Linux Ways, With Flaws and Frowns
SentinelLabs claimed to have observed the first Linux variant of Cl0p ransomware. The ELF variant of the ransomware uses the same encryption method and similar process logic as it does for Windows. Given that some Windows-only capabilities are missing from this new Linux version, it appears to still be in the early stages of development. The firm has also shared a free decryptor with law enforcement to help victims.
