RTM Locker’s Ransomware Variant Targets NAS and ESXi Hosts

RTM Locker is a ransomware-as-a-service (RaaS) provider that has recently developed a strain of ransomware capable of targeting Linux machines.

It uses a combination of ECDH on Curve25519 and Chacha20 to encrypt files, and is designed to target ESXi hosts by terminating all virtual machines on a compromised host before commencing the encryption process.

Victims are urged to contact the support team within 48 hours via Tox or risk having their data published.

Microsoft has recently revealed that vulnerable PaperCut servers are being targeted to deploy Cl0p and LockBit ransomware.
