Helpful vaccine (not killswitch!)

Looks like if you block C:\Windows\perfc.dat from writing/executing - stops #Petya. Is used for rundll32 import. https://twitter.com/HackingDave/status/879779361364357121 
Local kill switch - create file "C:\Windows\perfc" It kills WMI vector. Still need to patch MS17-010 for full protection.

Initial vector:

Ransomware includes:

Origin (NO PROOF):

Petya was known to be RaaS (Ransomware-as-a-Service), selling on Tor hidden services. Looks like WannaCry copycat. Attribution will be hard. https://twitter.com/x0rz/status/879733138792099842

AvP Bypass

Confirmed AvP bypasing trick is being used by Petya ransomware to evade 6 popular anti-virus signatures (script) https://twitter.com/hackerfantastic/status/880012620698451968

Vulnerabilities/Vectors/Actions:

PSEXEC: %PROGRAMDATA%\dllhost.dat is dropped and is legit PSEXEC bin Remote WMI, “process call create \"C:\\Windows\\System32\\rundll32.exe \\\"C:\\Windows\\perfc.dat\\\" #1” Log clean, «wevtutil cl Setup & wevtutil cl System & wevtutil cl Security & wevtutil cl Application & fsutil usn deletejournal /D %c:» Creates a scheduled task that reboots 1 hour after infection. If task removed before the hour, does not reschedule and can buy time Petya also attempts to kill Exchange & MySQL if they are running. If you host either of these services and notice them die, this is including in it's infection process (svchost.exe) // by Mike "Bones" Flowers: Exec: C:\\windows\\system32\\cmd.exe Params: /c taskkill.exe /f /im Microsoft.Exchange.* Exec: C:\\windows\\system32\\cmd.exe Params: /c taskkill.exe /f /im MSExchange* Exec: C:\\windows\\system32\\cmd.exe Params: /c taskkill.exe /f /im sqlserver.exe Exec: C:\\windows\\system32\\cmd.exe Params: /c taskkill.exe /f /im sqlwriter.exe Exec: C:\\windows\\system32\\cmd.exe Params: /c taskkill.exe /f /im mysqld.exe 
The new ransomware can also spread using an exploit for the Server Message Block (SMB) vulnerability CVE-2017-0144 (also known as EternalBlue), which was fixed in security update MS17-010 and was also exploited by WannaCrypt to spread to out-of-date machines. In addition, this ransomware also uses a second exploit for CVE-2017-0145 (also known as EternalRomance, and fixed by the same bulletin) Machines that are patched against these exploits (with security update MS17-010 https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/security/ms17-010.aspx) or have disabled SMBv1 (https://support.microsoft.com/kb/2696547) are not affected by this particular spreading mechanism 

Test local account behavior [NOT TESTED]:

Don't know if you have also noticed, but it only encrypted the MFT records for my test user account profile folders, the default Windows accounts Administrator, default user etc were all untouched, my test account was local so I don't know what behaviour would be expected for domain account profile folders.

100% on the sample used by me and on a standalone computer, user files were encrypted prior to reboot and the malware was not able to escalate privileges to deploy the MFT encryption payload, no instructions were deposited about recovering these files

Fix suggest by @MrAdz350

If you can boot to a Windows ISO prior to Frist reboot you can use bootrec tool to prevent MBR overwriting as per https://neosmart.net/wiki/fix-mbr
