This is probably not the right community but I haven’t found a better one.
So I watched a video from Seytonic where he mentiond that some malware creates a windows link with the name of the usb on a usb. So I checked my usb because I remembered that I had to click 2 times on my usb to opened it. I found a link that contained cmd.exe and a name of a file next to it. Upload to the virustotal showed Raspberry Roblin worm.
I use Linux but my familly uses windows so I will have to go through all familly computers and remove the worm. Where can I find info how to remove this specific worm - Raspberry Roblin? On google I found a description about how the worm works but not specific files it creates and how to remove it.
The first page that shows up is microsoft.com and it says that windows defender detects the worm, but clearly it doesnt.
Edit: The worm was on one computer and it did not have windows defender installed. Seems like malware removed it and also disabled automatic updates. I installed MalwareBytes and sucessfully removed the worm :)
Try to clean your USB stick. Remove the worm and maybe use a cloth to remove the dirt.
I would use a microwave to kill any worms / eggs still remaining, just in case.
Rubbing alcohol should work in a pinch.
Better use a biologic solution. Put the usb outside with some seeds nearby to attract birds that should eat it

Try C-band UV Lamp instead.
At the end of the day, if nothing help’s, kill it with fire.

I’ll clean all USB sticks the house, just to be sure.
yea microwave all your sticks in your house at full power for 15 minutes.
Then mix bleach with ammonia
(Don’t actually do this as it generates chorine gas which is quiet deadly and unpleasant)
(what did you say? I can’t read or ty.e mani 93
In other words, wipe the USB stick.
nowadays there is also malware that actually infect the firmware. Meaning just wiping the content isn’t good enough anymore. Same is true for BIOS worms/infections.
