This YARA rule detects the BiBiWiper trojan by identifying specific byte sequences associated with its shadow copy deletion and file destruction functionalities. The rule looks for two distinct patterns, '$delete_shadow_copies_p*' and '$destroy_files_p*', which are indicative of the malware's destructive behavior. The presence of both sets of patterns within a file, combined with the MZ header (0x5A4D), triggers the detection.

This rule detects GwisinLocker ransomware activity on Linux systems. It identifies specific byte patterns associated with the ransomware's key initialization, file encryption routines, file discovery mechanisms, process termination, and ESXi shutdown capabilities. The rule has two main versions (v1 and v2) of these functionalities, and a match occurs if all parts of either version are found.

This YARA rule detects the Acepy ransomware by identifying specific byte patterns associated with its core functionalities: finding files to encrypt, performing the encryption process, and dropping a ransom note. The rule requires all three patterns to be present within a Windows executable file (indicated by the MZ header) to trigger a detection.

This rule detects the TimeTime ransomware by identifying specific bytecode patterns associated with its file enumeration, encryption, and renaming activities. The rule looks for distinct sequences of operations related to finding files, encrypting files, encrypting folders, and renaming files, which are characteristic behaviors of ransomware.

This YARA rule detects the HarpoonLocker ransomware by identifying specific bytecode patterns related to file encryption, file discovery, and boot modification. The rule looks for distinct sequences of opcodes and operands that are characteristic of how HarpoonLocker encrypts files, finds target files on a system, and attempts to alter boot configurations for persistence or impact.

This rule detects the DST ransomware by identifying specific byte patterns associated with its core functionalities: encrypting files, finding files to encrypt, and killing processes. The rule looks for distinct sequences of assembly instructions (byte patterns) that are characteristic of how DST ransomware operates. Specifically, it requires all three sets of patterns related to file encryption, file discovery, and process termination to be present within a file to trigger a detection. The rule also checks for the standard Windows executable MZ header (0x5A4D) to ensure it's analyzing a valid executable.

This YARA rule detects the KillDisk ransomware by identifying specific byte patterns associated with its file encryption routines, file searching mechanisms, and its capability to subvert GRUB (Grand Unified Bootloader). The rule looks for a combination of these patterns within a file, indicating the presence of KillDisk ransomware, which is known for its data wiping and encryption capabilities, often rendering systems unbootable.

This YARA rule detects the GPCode ransomware by identifying specific byte sequences related to its core functionalities. These include patterns for iterating through drives, the encryption routine itself, setting a ransomware wallpaper, and reading configuration files. The rule requires all four byte patterns to be present within a file that starts with the MZ header (indicating a Windows executable) to trigger a detection.

This YARA rule detects the HDDCryptor ransomware by identifying specific byte patterns associated with its core functionalities. These functionalities include deploying components, gathering share information, encrypting disks, creating a DiskCryptor service, extracting DiskCryptor from resources, encrypting files, and initiating a system reboot. The rule looks for combinations of these patterns to ensure high confidence in detection.

This rule detects the MedusaLocker ransomware based on specific byte patterns found in its executable code. These patterns are associated with functions responsible for encrypting files, searching for files to encrypt, enumerating resources, and killing processes to facilitate encryption. The rule requires the presence of a valid PE header (MZ) and multiple distinct code sections related to these ransomware activities.
