WannaCry|WannaDecrypt0r NSA-Cyberweapon-Powered Ransomware Worm

• Virus Name: WannaCrypt, WannaCry, WanaCrypt0r, WCrypt, WCRY
• Vector: All Windows versions before Windows 10 are vulnerable if not patched for MS-17-010. It uses EternalBlue MS17-010 to propagate.
• Ransom: between $300 to $600. There is code to 'rm' (delete) files in the virus. Seems to reset if the virus crashes.
• Backdooring: The worm loops through every RDP session on a system to run the ransomware as that user. It also installs the DOUBLEPULSAR backdoor. It corrupts shadow volumes to make recovery harder. (source: malwarebytes)
• Kill switch: If the website www.iuqerfsodp9ifjaposdfjhgosurijfaewrwergwea.com is up the virus exits instead of infecting the host. (source: malwarebytes). This domain has been sinkholed, stopping the spread of the worm. Will not work if proxied (source).

update: A minor variant of the viru

The challenge states that the image includes shades of gray, #000000 to #F5F5F5. Since all of the pixels are gray, all three bytes of each color will be identical, so only one needs to be considered.

#000000-#F5F5F5 leaves shades 0-245 possible, significantly more than the 50 shades the challenge includes. Dividing these possible shades up evenly, it can be reasonably assumed that each shade is 5 apart.

Next, I wrote a simple Javascript program which would find each possible shade in the image. The shade that is not found is clearly the missing one.

Each of these commands will run an ad hoc http static server in your current (or specified) directory, available at http://localhost:8000. Use this power wisely.
