On April 9, the author of the "WannaRen" ransomware actively contacted Huorong, a Chinese network security provider, and provided decryption keys for his virus.
After analysis by Huorong engineers, the key is verified to be valid.ย If you unfortunately get the virus, you can check the key at the end of the article.
(The text "Huorong Studio****@huorong.ltd" is the user's private mailbox)
This morning, a Huorong user tried to contact the author of the "WannaRen" ransomware via email for more information on the grounds of decryption.
After the Huorong user was asked to pay bitcoin as a ransom and was refused, he actively provided the virus decryption key and asked the Huorong user to forward the key to the Huorong team to create a "corresponding decryption program."
As can be seen from the above email, after the virus author communicates in English, he also uses Chinese for communication. In addition, Huorong previously disclosed that the virus was written in easy language. The author is very likely to be Chinese.
At this point, as the event fermented, various media and security vendors conducted a large number of exposure and traceability investigations. Up to now, the Bitcoin wallet provided by the virus author has not received any ransom, and the author has stopped issuing and disseminating "WannaRenย "Ransomware virus.
