#Kaseya agent icon code#
Ransomware code used by REvil resembles the code used by DarkSide, suggesting that DarkSide could be a partner of REvil. REvil and Darkside use similarly structured ransom notes and the same code to check that the victim is not located in a Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) country.Ĭybersecurity experts believe REvil is an offshoot from a previous notorious, but now-defunct hacker gang, GandCrab. REvil recruits affiliates to distribute the ransomware for them and are thought to be based in Russia due to the fact that the group does not target Russian organisations. More details on the anatomy of attack can be found at: Anything executed by the Kaseya Agent Monitor was therefore ignored because of those exclusions-which allowed REvil to deploy its dropper without scrutiny.

This was achieved using a zero-day exploit of the server platform for which Kaseya was rushing out a patch. This vulnerability gave REvil cover in several ways: It allowed initial compromise through a trusted channel, and leveraged trust in the VSA agent code-reflected in anti-malware software exclusions that Kaseya requires for setting up its application and agent “working” folders.

The researchers’ current breakdown of the attack has shown that the outbreak was delivered via a malicious update payload sent to VSA servers, and in turn, to the VSA agent applications running on managed Windows devices. Kaseya has issued a security advisory warning its customers to immediately shut down their on-premise VSA servers to prevent the attack from spreading. According to Kaseya, it affects only Kaseya VSA software running on on-premise servers while SaaS versions remain unaffected. The malware appears to have been delivered through an automatic update of the Kaseya VSA client management and monitoring software. On Friday 2 July 2021, Kaseya reported that its VSA Remote Monitoring and Management Software has been compromised to distribute REvil ransomware to multiple managed services providers running the software, potentially infecting unspecified numbers of their 40,000 installed customer base.
