How to fix MSDT exploit

fix msdt exploit, fix follina, fix CVE-2022-30190, fix mesdetty


The MSDT exploit is a dangerous vulnerability in Microsoft Windows that allows hackers to perform “remote code execution”. In layman’s terms – this means that the MSDT exploit allows hackers to do anything they want with your computer. Maybe they’ll mine cryptocurrency, maybe they’ll steal your accounts, maybe they’ll install a ransomware program… anything is possible. It affects all modern Windows versions – Windows 7 and the newer versions are all vulnerable.
The exploit allows hackers to corrupt .docx and .rtf files (text documents), as well as Windows shortcuts, in such a way that it allows them to control your computer. This is done through a vulnerability in Microsoft Support Diagnostic Tool (MSDT), which is why it is called the MSDT exploit. In case of .docx files and shortcuts, the hacker needs the victim to open the file. However, .rtf files are even more dangerous – simply clicking on the file once, without opening it, is enough to be hacked.
Note that Microsoft Support Diagnostic Tool by itself is not dangerous. However, you should never see the window on the image above unless you’re interacting with Microsoft Support. If you saw this window randomly appear, or appear after you’ve opened a file – you’ve been infected.
This vulnerability is also known as Follina, and in the cybersecurity world, as CVE-2022-30190 and Mesdetty. So if you’ve heard one of these names – these are all just different names for this vulnerability.
Although this is a very serious flaw in Windows’s security, it can be easily fixed. This article will teach you how to fix MSDT exploit so you can be safe from the hackers trying to use this vulnerability.

How to remove Nnuz ransomware

What is Nnuz ransomware

Nnuz is a virus that encrypts every file on the infected computer. This is not done out of pure malice – the cybercriminals then offer to decrypt your data for a significant sum of money. This behavior has earned Nnuz, as well as every other malicious program that behaves in this fashion, the name of ransomware. Many different “families” of ransomware exist – all viruses within one family are essentially the same virus, with only minor differences between each other. Nnuz belongs to the STOP/Djvu ransomware family – you can read our articles on Zfdv or Ribd, other viruses in this family, to see just how similar they are to each other.
The encrypted files are given the .nnuz extension, so that the victim can see that something is wrong with their files. Once it’s done encrypting the files, Nnuz creates a file named “_readme.txt” on the victim’s desktop. This file is a ransom note – the image above contains its text. It demands $980 to restore the data, or $490 if paid within the first 72 hours after infection.
Our article will help you deal with this threat. It will explain how to remove Nnuz ransomware, and will tell you what you can do to decrypt .nnuz files.

What is LV ransomware

LV ransomware (also known as 0nzo8yk ransomware) is a modified version of another ransomware program, REvil. The ultimate goal of any ransomware virus is to generate money for the cybercriminals. This is done via ransom – LV (as well as every other ransomware program) encrypts the victim’s data and demands a payment to decrypt them.
LV’s ransom note is called “EDGEWATER-README.txt”, which you can read on the image above. One thing is absent from this note, and that is price. The price varies depending on the profile of the victim, so the hackers are using their Tor website to communicate this information (see example). This is important because it means that LV most likely focuses on a small number of valuable targets such as companies. This does not rule out the possibility of private individuals being targeted with LV – they could be targeting both.
Either way, this guide will show you how to remove LV ransomware from your computer, and will give you tips on how to decrypt .0nzo8yk files.

How to remove Zfdv ransomware

What is Zfdv ransomware

Zfdv is a new strain of the STOP/Djvu ransomware. For this reason, it is very similar to other ransomware programs in this family, such as Ribd or Ygkz. Ransomware, as you probably already know, is a class of illegal programs that make hackers money by encrypting files and asking for payment to decrypt them.
Zfdv in specific asks for $980, though the ransom note also states that victim who act quickly will get a 50% discount and will only have to pay $490. This, too, is typical for STOP/Djvu. Speaking of the ransom note, it is called “_readme.txt”, and is placed on the Desktop. For those that are interested in details, the image above contains the full text of the note – though once you’ve seen one STOP/Djvu ransom note, you’ve seen them all.
When Zfdv encrypts the files, is also changes the files’ extensions. Many ransomware programs do this, presumably to make it more evident to the victim that an attack has happened. The files Zfdv encrypts are given the extension .zfdv – hence the name.
The “good” thing about being infected with Zfdv is that STOP/Djvu is a well-known ransomware family that is relatively easy to get rid of. This article will explain how to remove Zfdv from your computer and how you can try to decrypt .zfdv files.
