new malware (a256?) or just broken encryption?

Hello guys,

 

one of my friend got all the HD encrypted but something strange: no text note, no changed file extension, just unreadable files.

 

the only thing that i notice is that all the file headers are changed to a256ce457ce2487ebe22ba721ab340c6

 

anyone had something similar? is it a broken encryption?

 

i've uploaded a few files

 

Thanks and have a good weekend!
