This rule detects the creation or modification of a file named 'ClipBoard.txt' within the directory 'AppData\Roaming\ConfigsEx\', as well as the creation of the 'ConfigsEx' directory using command-line tools. This behavior is indicative of an adversary staging sensitive information, such as harvested clipboard data, for potential exfiltration.

Detects unauthorized file operations (creation, modification, or renaming) against the Windows hosts file located at C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts. This is a common technique used by attackers to redirect network traffic, hijack domains, or disrupt communications to security services. The rule excludes common system processes known to perform legitimate maintenance on this file.

Detects high-volume filesystem activity (exceeding 300 operations in 5 minutes) initiated by 'claude-code' or 'claude' processes. This behavior may indicate an autonomous, patched, or jailbroken AI coding assistant performing mass file operations or reconnaissance without user confirmation.

Detects a sequence of suspicious behaviors on a single host within a 1-hour window, indicative of an adversary establishing a foothold and preparing for malicious activity. The pattern involves: 1) System architecture discovery, 2) Downloading files from an external IP address, 3) Changing permissions of files in temporary directories (e.g., /tmp, /var/tmp, /dev/shm), and 4) Executing files directly from those same temporary directories.

Detects suspected exploitation of CVE-2026-81963, an Elevation of Privilege vulnerability in the Windows Update stack. The rule monitors for the creation of reparse points, junctions, or symbolic links within update staging paths by Windows Update processes, followed by either the spawning of suspicious child processes or unauthorized file writes/renames outside of expected directories, which are indicative of a privileged link-following exploit.

This rule detects potential ransomware activity by correlating three distinct indicators: deletion of Volume Shadow Copies (using native Windows utilities), mass file modifications (>100 files in 15 minutes), and the creation or modification of files typically associated with ransom notes. The rule uses an inner join to ensure these events happen within a 30-minute window of each other on the same device.

Detects rapid, repeated invocation of Microsoft Defender remediation processes (mpcmdrun.exe, MsMpEng.exe) occurring in conjunction with suspicious file write or rename operations in System32. This pattern is characteristic of a Time-of-Check to Time-of-Use (TOCTOU) race condition, where an attacker attempts to exploit the timing gap between Defender's detection and remediation actions to replace a file with a malicious version.

This rule detects potentially malicious modifications to PostgreSQL configuration files or the creation of new library files (.so or .dll) by the PostgreSQL service process. It also flags when the PostgreSQL service process is initiated with command-line arguments referencing 'shared_preload_libraries', which can be abused to load arbitrary code or malicious extensions into the database engine.

Detects when the Postgres service process or account attempts to modify system-level persistence mechanisms, such as scheduled tasks (cron/schtasks) or system services (systemd/startup folders), which are typical behaviors for an adversary using database service context to maintain persistence.

This rule detects potential persistence mechanisms in a PostgreSQL database by identifying the creation of a new shared library file (e.g., .so or .dll) within PostgreSQL plugin directories, followed by a modification to the PostgreSQL configuration files (postgresql.conf or postgresql.auto.conf) within a short 30-minute window. This behavior is indicative of an attacker registering a malicious shared library to be loaded upon database startup, a technique associated with PostGREShell-style post-exploitation.

This rule monitors for modifications to the PostgreSQL configuration file 'pg_hba.conf', specifically looking for changes that would enable 'trust' authentication, followed by successful database logins using that method within one hour. This behavior is indicative of an attacker modifying authentication rules to gain unauthorized, passwordless access to a database.

Detects the creation or modification of specific files within the /tmp directory, specifically those matching naming patterns associated with 'jasper-log' files or temporary pipe files. These patterns are often associated with temporary storage or data staging activities during post-exploitation or malware execution.

Detects the presence of the 'X_TRACE_' marker within Magento report files or system logs, which is characteristic of the StyleSmuggler threat actor's method of poisoning log files to facilitate subsequent code execution.
