REvil ransomware’s new Linux encryptor targets ESXi virtual machines

MalwareHunterTeam found a Linux version of the REvil ransomware (aka Sodinokibi) that also appears to target ESXi servers. The REvil operation is now using a Linux encryptor that targets and encrypts Vmware ESXi virtual machines. This is the first known time the Linux variant has been publicly available since it was released. Other ransomware operations, such as Babuk, RansomExx/Defray, Mespinoza, GoGoogle, DarkSide, and Hellokitty have also created Linux encryptors.
