The actors used this foothold to deploy LockBit and Babuk ransomware while remaining undetected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This abuse of trusted security products aligns with a broader trend observed by Talos, where attackers increasingly leverage commercial and open-source tools to achieve their objectives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cisco Talos <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.talosintelligence.com\/velociraptor-leveraged-in-ransomware-attacks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">attributes<\/a> this activity to Storm-2603, a suspected China-based group first identified in July 2025, exploiting SharePoint vulnerabilities known as ToolShell. The attribution is based on significant overlaps in tools and tactics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Storm-2603 is known for deploying both Warlock and LockBit ransomware in the same attack, and while LockBit is common, the use of Warlock is a strong indicator, as it has been heavily used by this group since it appeared in June 2025. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The deployment of three distinct ransomware variants, <a href=\"https:\/\/cybersecuritynews.com\/warlock-ransomware-exploiting-sharepoint-vulnerabilities\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Warlock<\/a>, LockBit, and Babuk, in a single engagement is highly unusual and strengthens the connection to Storm-2603. However, the group had not previously been seen using Babuk, the combination of TTPs points in their direction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-multi-faceted-attack-chain\"><strong>A Multi-faceted Attack Chain<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The attack, first detected in mid-August 2025, involved a sophisticated chain of events. After gaining what was likely initial access through the ToolShell exploit, the actor escalated privileges by creating new admin accounts and syncing them to Entra ID.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They used these accounts to access the VMware vSphere console, ensuring persistent control over the virtual environment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To impair defenses, the attackers modified <a href=\"https:\/\/cybersecuritynews.com\/active-directory-management-tools\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Active Directory<\/a> Group Policy Objects (GPOs) to disable Microsoft Defender&#8217;s real-time protection and behavior monitoring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A fileless PowerShell script carried out the final encryption on Windows machines, while a Linux binary of the Babuk encryptor targeted ESXi servers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The attack also featured a double extortion component, with the actors using a custom PowerShell script to exfiltrate sensitive data before encryption, employing techniques to evade detection like suppressing progress indicators and using sleep commands to inhibit analysis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Indicator Type<\/th><th>Indicator Value<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>C2\/Exfiltration IP<\/td><td>65.38.121[.]226<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Malicious MSI Domain<\/td><td>stoaccinfoniqaveeambkp.blob.core.windows[.]net<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Velociraptor C2 Server<\/td><td>velo.qaubctgg.workers[.]dev<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Velociraptor Installer SHA256<\/td><td>649BDAA38E60EDE6D140BD54CA5412F1091186A803D3905465219053393F6421<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Velociraptor.exe SHA256<\/td><td>12F177290A299BAE8A363F47775FB99F305BBDD56BBDFDDB39595B43112F9FB7<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Malicious config.yaml SHA256<\/td><td>A29125333AD72138D299CC9EF09718DDB417C3485F6B8FE05BA88A08BB0E5023<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>In.exe (NTLM Downgrade Tool) SHA256<\/td><td>C74897B1E986E2876873ABB3B5069BF1B103667F7F0E6B4581FBDA3FD647A74A<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-background\" style=\"background:linear-gradient(180deg,rgb(238,238,238) 94%,rgb(169,184,195) 100%)\"><strong>Follow us on <a href=\"https:\/\/news.google.com\/publications\/CAAqMggKIixDQklTR3dnTWFoY0tGV041WW1WeWMyVmpkWEpwZEhsdVpYZHpMbU52YlNnQVAB?hl=en-IN&amp;gl=IN&amp;ceid=IN:en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Google News<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/cybersecurity-news\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">LinkedIn<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/cyber_press_org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">X<\/a> for daily cybersecurity updates. <a href=\"https:\/\/cybersecuritynews.com\/contact-us\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Contact us<\/a> to feature your stories.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Security researchers at Cisco Talos have confirmed that ransomware operators are actively exploiting Velociraptor, an open-source digital forensics and incident response (DFIR) tool, in their attacks.
