NailaoLocker is a ransomware operation that has been linked in reporting to activity overlapping with Chinese cyber-espionage tradecraft. It has been associated with the use of ShadowPad and PlugX, and has been observed leveraging Impacket and CQHashDump during intrusions. Public reporting has also tied NailaoLocker attacks to exploitation of CVE-2024-24919 in Check Point Quantum Security Gateways for initial access. The combination of ransomware deployment with tooling more commonly associated with Chinese intrusion sets has led to suspicion of a nexus between financially motivated extortion activity and broader Chinese state-linked ecosystem tradecraft, although the precise organizational relationship is not publicly established at high confidence. NailaoLocker demonstrates capabilities spanning initial access, credential theft, and post-compromise operations.
