'This query looks for Microsoft Defender for Endpoint detections related to the remote command execution attempts on Azure IR with Managed VNet or SHIR.
In Microsoft Sentinel, the SecurityAlerts table includes the name of the impacted device. Additionally, this query joins the DeviceInfo table to connect other information such as device group, IP address, signed in users, and others allowing analysts using Microsoft Sentinel to have more context related to the alert.

This query was originally published in the threat analytics report, Msiexec abuse.
Msiexec.exe is a Windows component that installs files with the .msi extension. These kinds of files are Windows installer packages, and are used by a wide array of legitimate software. However, malicious actors can re-purpose msiexec.exe for living-off-the-land attacks, where they use legitimate system binaries on the compromised device to perform attacks.
The following query detects activity associated with misuse of msiexec.exe, particularly alongside mimikatz, a common credential dumper and privilege escalation tool.

This query was originally published in the threat analytics report, Motivated miners.
Doublepulsar is a backdoor developed by the National Security Agency (NSA). First disclosed in 2017, it is now used by many malicious actors. Software patches are available.
The following query detects activity broadly associated with campaigns that use DoublePulsar to exploit web servers.
See Detect DoublePulsar execution for a query that detects possible DoublePulsar execution events.

This query was originally published in the threat analytics report, Exploitation of CVE-2019-0708 (BlueKeep).
CVE-2019-0708, also known as BlueKeep, is a critical remote code execution vulnerability involving RDP. Soon after its disclosure, the NSA issued a rare advisory about this vulnerability, out of concern that it could be used to quickly spread malware. Attackers have since used this vulnerability to install cryptocurrency miners on targets.
Microsoft has issued updates for this vulnerability, as well as guidance for protecting operating systems that we no longer support. Microsoft Defender ATP also contains behavioral detections for defending against this threat.
The following query locates devices that have communicated with attacker infrastructure associated with BlueKeep-related cryptomining.

First query digs in print spooler drivers folder for any file creations,
MANY OF THE FILES THAT SHOULD COME UP HERE MAY BE LEGIT. Unsigned files
or ones that don't have any relations to printers that you are using are
suspicious.
Second query that can be used for finding client machines that
could be operating print servers or file servers is also included here.
As additional mitigation for the exploit you might want to block the
incoming traffic to the SMB or EPMAP Ports (445) if you need to keep the
spooler service running to print from clients.

This detection validates that any OMS-agent that is reporting to the Microsoft Sentinel workspace is updated with the patch. The detection will go over the heartbeats received from all agents over the last day and will create alert for those agents who are not updated.

This query was originally published in the threat analytics report, Confluence and WebLogic abuse.
2019 has seen several seemingly related campaigns targeting Atlassian Confluence Server and Oracle WebLogic Server. Although these campaigns use different implants and delivery methods, they consistently use the same infrastructure, and exploit the same vulnerabilities.
The campaigns have specifically targeted:
1. CVE-2019-3396 - Software update
2. CVE-2019-2725 - Software update
The following query detects activity broadly associated with these campaigns.

'This query looks for suspicious request patterns to Exchange servers that fit patterns recently blogged about by PeterJson. This exploitation chain utilises an SSRF vulnerability in Exchange which eventually allows the attacker to execute arbitrary Powershell on the server.
In the example powershell can be used to write an email to disk with an encoded attachment containing a shell.
