Abstract 

Like all ransomware, the principle objective of the Maze is to encode all documents that it can in a contaminated framework and afterwards request a payoff to recuperate the records. In any case, there are things that are not all that basic to Maze Ransomware that we have to think about 

1. Found on May the 29th 2019 by Jerome Segura. [Malware Wiki] 

2. The aggressor compromises the casualties that; in the event that they don’t pay, they will discharge the data on the Internet. Labyrinth’s administrators have made a devoted website page, which records the characters of their non-agreeable casualties and routinely distributes tests of the taken information. The labyrinth has since distributed the subtleties of many organizations. 

3. Pointer Of Compromise (IOCs) that one of the ongoing casualties has given incorporated the IP locations of servers related with the kepstl32.dll, memes.tmp and maze.dll records, which are known to be utilized beforehand in Maze ransomware assaults. Henceforth it is suspected that they could do focused on assaults, dissimilar to wanacry which was intended to spread by abusing Eternal Blue weakness. 

4. Similarly, as with numerous kinds of ransomware, there is an idea to unscramble three pictures for nothing and that administration has been confirmed as working, which shows the verification of decoding to bait the person in question. 

A Brief Technical Details in 6 stages 

1. The PEB field “IsDebuggerPresent”. This field is a Boolean field that is filled from Windows with 1 (True) if the application is running within a debugger or 0 (False) on the off chance that it isn’t. In the event that the malware distinguishes a debugger, it will stay in a boundless circle without making anything while at the same time squandering framework assets. 

2. It can end IDA debugger, x32dbg, OllyDbg and more procedures to evade dynamic examination, close databases, office projects and security apparatuses 

3. The malware attempts to erase the shadow volumes in the framework utilizing the “wmic.exe” program with the switches “shadow duplicate” and “erase”. Preceding this, the malware gets the capacity of “WoW64DisableWow64FsRedirection” with “GetProcAddress” and utilizations it to stay away from redirection as a matter of course in 64-piece working frameworks and calls it in a unique manner. 

4. The malware attempts to erase the shadow duplicates multiple times, once before encoding the records in the contaminated framework and besides in the wake of scrambling them. 

5. The malware utilizes two calculations to encode the documents, ChaCha which depends on the Salsa20 calculation that is symmetric and, for insurance, an RSA calculation that is unbalanced. 

6. In every execution, the malware makes a Public BLOB of one RSA key that will be utilized to sepulchre the part that holds the data to unscramble the documents and one Private BLOB with an RSA key that permits decoding of the data encoded with the open RSA mass made already.
