Detects the creation of a specific DLL file ('api-ms-win-core-kernel32-legacy-l1.DLL') within a user's temporary directory. This pattern is indicative of a User Account Control (UAC) bypass technique that leverages NTFS reparse points and DLL hijacking, often associated with tools like UACMe (specifically UACMe 36). The rule looks for the exact file path in a user's AppData\Local\Temp directory.

This rule detects a specific User Account Control (UAC) bypass technique leveraging the Windows Media Player component. Specifically, it looks for the creation of a file named 'OskSupport.dll' within a user's temporary directory, combined with 'DllHost.exe' accessing 'osk.exe' located in the Windows Media Player directory. This pattern is indicative of the UACMe tool's method 32, which exploits a vulnerability related to Windows Media Player to elevate privileges without user interaction.

This rule detects PowerShell scripts that enumerate directories using `Get-ChildItem` and output the results to a file using `Out-File -append`. The detection logic specifically looks for the combination of `foreach`, `Get-ChildItem`, `-Path`, `-ErrorAction SilentlyContinue`, `Out-File`, and `-append` within the PowerShell script block text. This behavior has been associated with MAZE ransomware for directory discovery.

Detects the creation of recent file shortcuts (.lnk) that point to disk image files (.iso, .img, .vhd, .vhdx). This activity is often observed in phishing attacks where adversaries use these file types to deliver malware. The rule specifically looks for these shortcuts within the 'Recent' folder of a user's profile, indicating that the user has recently interacted with such a file.

This rule detects the creation of temporary files in a specific path within the AppData\Local\Temp directory. The path contains a unique hash-like string, which is associated with the PCRE.NET package. This activity could indicate the execution or unpacking of applications that utilize the PCRE.NET library, potentially for malicious purposes such as code execution or payload delivery.

Detects a User Account Control (UAC) bypass technique that leverages the Windows Event Viewer (eventvwr.exe). This method involves manipulating the registry to execute an arbitrary binary or script with elevated privileges when eventvwr.exe is launched. The rule specifically looks for file creation events in the 'RecentViews' directory associated with Event Viewer, where the creating process is not a standard system process (i.e., not originating from C:\Windows\System32\ or C:\Windows\SysWOW64\).
