	"plain_text": "Microsoft links Raspberry Robin worm to Clop ransomware attacks\r\nBy Sergiu Gatlan\r\nPublished: 2022-10-27 · Archived: 2026-04-05 23:04:48 UTC\r\nMicrosoft says a threat group tracked as DEV-0950 used Clop ransomware to encrypt the network of a victim previously\r\ninfected with the Raspberry Robin worm.\r\nDEV-0950 malicious activity overlaps with financially motivated cybercrime groups tracked as FIN11 and TA505, known\r\nfor deploying Clop payloads ransomware on targets' systems.\r\nBesides ransomware, Raspberry Robin has also been used to drop other second-stage payloads onto compromised devices,\r\nincluding IcedID, Bumblebee, and Truebot.\r\nhttps://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/microsoft-links-raspberry-robin-worm-to-clop-ransomware-attacks/\r\nPage 1 of 4\n\n0:00\r\nhttps://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/microsoft-links-raspberry-robin-worm-to-clop-ransomware-attacks/\r\nPage 2 of 4\n\nVisit Advertiser websiteGO TO PAGE\r\n\"Beginning on September 19, 2022, Microsoft identified Raspberry Robin worm infections deploying IcedID and—later at\r\nother victims—Bumblebee and TrueBot payloads,\" Microsoft Security Threat Intelligence analysts said.\r\n\"In October 2022, Microsoft researchers observed Raspberry Robin infections followed by Cobalt Strike activity from DEV-0950. This activity, which in some cases included a Truebot infection, eventually deployed the Clop ransomware.\"\r\nThis hints at Raspberry Robin's operators selling initial access to compromised enterprise systems to ransomware gangs and\r\naffiliates who now have an additional way to get into their targets' networks besides phishing emails and malicious ads.\r\nIn late July, Microsoft also said it detected Evil Corp pre-ransomware behavior on networks where an access broker tracked\r\nas DEV-0206 dropped the FakeUpdates (aka SocGholish) backdoor on Raspberry Robin-infected devices.\r\nRaspberry Robin cybercriminal ecosystem (Microsoft)\r\nNearly 1,000 orgs compromised within 30 days \r\nSpotted in September 2021 by Red Canary intelligence analysts, Raspberry Robin spreads to other devices via infected USB\r\ndevices containing a malicious .LNK file.\r\nAfter the USB device is attached and the user clicks the link, the worm will spawn a msiexec process using cmd.exe to\r\nlaunch a second malicious file stored on the infected drive.\r\nOn compromised Windows devices, it communicates with its command and control servers (C2). It also delivers and\r\nexecutes additional payloads after bypassing User Account Control (UAC) on infected systems using several legitimate\r\nWindows utilities (fodhelper, msiexec, and odbcconf).\r\nMicrosoft said in early July that it detected Raspberry Robin malware infection on the networks of hundreds of\r\norganizations from a wide range of industry sectors.\r\nToday, the company revealed that the worm has spread to systems belonging to nearly 1,000 organizations within the past\r\nmonth.\r\n\"Microsoft Defender for Endpoint data indicates that nearly 3,000 devices in almost 1,000 organizations have seen at least\r\none Raspberry Robin payload-related alert in the last 30 days,\" Microsoft added.\r\nhttps://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/microsoft-links-raspberry-robin-worm-to-clop-ransomware-attacks/\r\nPage 3 of 4\n\nAutomated Pentesting Covers Only 1 of 6 Surfaces.\r\nAutomated pentesting proves the path exists. BAS proves whether your controls stop it. Most teams run one without the\r\nother.\r\nThis whitepaper maps six validation surfaces, shows where coverage ends, and provides practitioners with three diagnostic\r\nquestions for any tool evaluation.\r\nSource: https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/microsoft-links-raspberry-robin-worm-to-clop-ransomware-attacks/\r\nhttps://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/microsoft-links-raspberry-robin-worm-to-clop-ransomware-attacks/\r\nPage 4 of 4",
