A ransomware cabal that pledged support for Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has been hacked.

A cache of chat logs belonging to the Conti ransomware gang leaked online by an insider who objected to their support of Vladimir Putin.

"Fuck the Russian government”, the leaker said in their message. “Glory to Ukraine!"

The leak could be a severe hit for the ransomware group “not least because their affiliates and other associates will have lost confidence in the operation,” said Brett Callow, a ransomware expert and threat analyst at Emsisoft, told TechCrunch.

“They’ll undoubtedly be wondering when the operation was compromised, whether law enforcement was involved and whether there are any breadcrumbs which could lead to them.”

While Conti supports Russia, other hacking collectives have come in behind Ukraine. This includes members of Anonymous and a group called the Cyber Partisans which encrypted the data of parts of the Belarusian rail network.
