The MortalKombat ransomware and Laplas Clipper virus have been actively scouring the internet and collecting cryptocurrency from naive investors since December 2022, according to Cisco Talos, a threat intelligence research team. As indicated below, the majority of the campaign’s victims are in the United States, with smaller percentages in the United Kingdom, Turkey, and the Philippines.

The malicious software collaborates to steal information from the user’s clipboard, which is often filled with a string of letters and numbers that the user has copied. Once wallet addresses have been copied to the clipboard, the infection finds them and replaces them with a different address.

The attack depends on the user failing to pay attention to the sender’s wallet address, which would result in the recipient of the bitcoins being an unidentified attacker. The attack affects both individuals and small and large enterprises, with no clear aim.

When MortalKombat ransomware infects a computer, it encrypts the user’s files and leaves a ransom note with payment instructions, like depicted above. The Talos analysis revealed the download links (URLs) connected to the assault campaign and said:

“One of them reaches an attacker-controlled server via IP address 193[.]169[.]255[.]78, based in Poland, to download the MortalKombat ransomware. According to Talos’ analysis, 193[.]169[.]255[.]78 is running an RDP crawler, scanning the internet for exposed RDP port 3389.”
