Detects VBScript files that exhibit characteristics of a downloader or dropper, including common Windows API usage (WScript.Shell, Shell.Application, MSXML2.XMLHTTP, ADODB.Stream), staging in the C:\Users\Public\ directory, and performing sandbox evasion via WMI InstallDate checks.

Detects the presence of ZIP archive files masquerading as 'Evernote.zip' that contain 'notepad++.exe', which is a pattern frequently observed in VBScript-based downloaders utilizing binary sideloading to execute malicious payloads.

Detects a suspicious sequence of network downloads initiated by bash, sh, or zsh using curl or wget where the command-line includes the 'force=1' parameter. This behavior is indicative of the ClickFix macOS dropper chain often associated with the Macfinger campaign, where multiple payloads (shell scripts and Mach-O binaries) are retrieved from a common C2 infrastructure.

Detects a suspicious execution chain where a command shell (cmd.exe) launched by explorer.exe uses curl.exe to download an MSI file from Azure Blob Storage, followed immediately by the installation of that MSI using msiexec.exe. This pattern is indicative of common malware delivery techniques, such as those observed with the RVTools.lnk delivery chain.

This rule detects potential smishing or malvertising attacks by monitoring network activity for the download of .apk files from non-reputable domains. It correlates these download attempts with previous browsing behavior on URLs containing specific 'fake app-store' lure patterns (e.g., promotional text like 'Nexus One' or 'Download Now' outside of official marketplaces like Google Play, APKMirror, or APKPure).

Detects the execution of rundll32.exe with a command line containing 'DavWWWRoot', indicating the loading of a DLL from a remote WebDAV share. This is a common technique used by attackers to execute remote malicious code while bypassing local execution policies or attempting to evade local file-based detection.

Detects a multi-stage infection chain involving communication with known malicious infrastructure ('mnoskemp.beer'), staging and extraction of password-protected archives using '7za.exe' in temporary directories, installation of a spoofed OBS Studio MSI package, and subsequent DLL side-loading of malicious libraries (e.g., 'obs.dll', 'WSql-2.dll') by the 'obs64.exe' process when initiated from outside legitimate installation paths.

Detects suspicious execution of command-line utilities (cmd.exe, powershell.exe, conhost.exe) directly from Windows Explorer (explorer.exe), which is often indicative of fileless malware execution, downloader activity, or 'ClickFix' style social engineering attacks.
