Eewt Ransomware Copies Every Other Djvu Variant

Eewt ransomware is a newly discovered ransomware clone based on Djvu code.

There is nothing remarkable or unusual about Eewt - it does everything exactly the same as every other recent Djvu variant. Files get encrypted and the ".eewt" extension is appended past the original one. This will make a file called "document.txt" turn into "document.txt.eewt" upon encryption.

The ransomware will affect media files, documents, archives and databases. Once encrypted, files can no longer be opened and accessed normally.

The ransomware drops its ransom demands inside a file called "_readme.txt". The full ransom note goes as follows:
