*DATE(S) ISSUED: *12 May 2017

*SUBJECT: *Ransomware Campaign

*ORIGINAL* *OVERVIEW**: *According to numerous open-source reports, a
widespread ransomware campaign is impacting organizations in as many as 16
countries. The latest version of this ransomware variant, known as
WannaCry, WCry, or Wanna Decryptor, was discovered this morning by an
independent security researcher and has spread rapidly over the course of
several hours, with initial reports beginning around 4:00 AM EDT. Initial
reports indicate that the hacker or hacking group behind this campaign are
gaining access to enterprise servers either through Remote Desktop Protocol
(RDP) compromise or through the exploitation of a critical Windows SMB
vulnerability for which Microsoft released a patch on March 14, 2017.

*THREAT INTELLIGENCE: *Vulnerability is currently being exploited in 16
countries.

*SYSTEMS AFFECTED:*

   - Windows XP
   - Windows Vista
   - Windows 7
   - Windows 8
   - Windows 10
   - Windows Server 2003
   - Windows Server 2008
   - Windows Server 2012


*RISK:**Government:*

   - Large and medium government entities: *High*
   - Small government entities: *High*

Home Users: High

*TECHNICAL SUMMARY: *This exploit is a self-replicating payload that allows
the ransomware to spread virally from vulnerable machine to machine without
requiring users to open emails, click on links, or take any other sort of
action.

*RECOMMENDATIONS:*

   - Organizations close ports 22, 23, 3389, TCP 139 & 145/UDP 137 & 138,
   and to ensure the aforementioned SMB patch (MS17-010) was applied.
   - Additionally, we recommend all organizations implement a robust data
   backup process that safeguards any data considered valuable or critical to
   the organization. Data backups must be stored offline—disconnected from the
   network—and tested regularly to confirm their integrity.
   - Updated antivirus definitions
   - Run all software as a non-privileged user (one without administrative
   privileges) to diminish the effects of a successful attack.
   - Remind users not to visit un-trusted websites or follow links provided
   by unknown or un-trusted sources.
   - Inform and educate users regarding the threats posed by hypertext
   links contained in emails or attachments, especially those from un-trusted
   sources.
   - Apply the Principle of Least Privilege to all systems and services.
