This rule performs a retrospective search across device file and network events for indicators of compromise associated with the UNC6240/ShinyHunters actor's activity against PeopleSoft, specifically linked to CVE-2026-35273. It monitors for known malicious file hashes (JSP webshells and executables), connections to known C2 infrastructure, and DNS lookups for specific malicious domains.
Detects non-browser processes (e.g., non-chrome.exe/msedge.exe) modifying critical browser configuration files such as 'Secure Preferences' followed by near-simultaneous writes to extension-related directories like 'Extension State' or 'Extensions'. This pattern is indicative of a malicious attempt to bypass browser security integrity checks to silently install or load unauthorized extensions.
Detects the modification of AI agent configuration files (e.g., mcp.json, config.json) followed shortly by the agent spawning a child process that matches typical Model Context Protocol (MCP) server execution patterns. This behavior may indicate an attacker has modified the configuration to inject malicious server commands or tools that the AI agent will execute upon next initialization, effectively achieving persistent code execution via the agent's legitimate functionality.
This rule monitors Linux system logs for attempts to modify the /etc/sudoers file, utilize sudoers.d configurations, or execute commands with NOPASSWD privileges. These activities are common precursors to privilege escalation or persistence through elevated command execution.
Detects potential abuse of Cloud Shell to persist access in cloud environments. For GCP, it monitors the injection of SSH keys into instance or project metadata from a Cloud Shell session. For Azure, it detects a pattern involving Cloud Shell storage provisioning followed by a subsequent VM run-command or SSH public key update, indicating potential unauthorized management of virtual machines.
Detects the LEMURLOOT ASP.NET web shell deployed by Cl0p following exploitation of CVE-2023-34362 in MOVEit Transfer
Detects a file named dnsapi.dll created/modified outside System32/SysWOW64/WinSxS (the only legitimate locations for the real system DLL). Now requires the file to BOTH land in one of the known NeedyMantis sideload staging folders AND match the published 3448-byte spoofed-config size -- previously the size check alone could match unrelated dnsapi.dll copies anywhere on disk; requiring both signals together removes that bypass.
Detects Impacket-style hands-on-keyboard staging: a NeedyMantis bundle file dropped by cmd.exe/wmiprvse.exe/services.exe carrying the distinctive remote-execution fingerprint (ADMIN$ share reference, %COMSPEC% invocation, or 2>&1 output redirection used by wmiexec/smbexec/atexec), followed within 15 minutes by execution referencing the same bundle folder with the same fingerprint. Requiring the ADMIN$/%COMSPEC%/redirection fingerprint on both the copy and the execution -- rather than just matching on common process names like cmd.exe or svchost.exe -- removes the bulk of ordinary software installation and update activity that also uses cmd.exe to stage files.

Detects anomalous file manipulation behavior consistent with the Kothamine agent, characterized by rapid create, write, and delete cycles on a single file. The detection specifically targets processes identified as either explorer.exe with a reflected Kothamine DLL module or the standalone MicrosoftEdgeUpdateCore.exe loader running from an AppData staging path.

The detection specifically targets processes identified as either explorer.exe with a reflected Kothamine DLL module or the standalone MicrosoftEdgeUpdateCore.exe loader running from an AppData staging path.
Detects scripting interpreters (wscript.exe, cscript.exe, powershell.exe, python.exe) that perform an outbound network connection to known public Generative AI API endpoints and subsequently modify their own script file on disk. This behavior is indicative of sophisticated malware attempting to rewrite its own source code at runtime to evade signature-based detection.
Detects a suspected ransomware double-extortion sequence: the bulk creation of password-protected archives using compression utilities (e.g., 7z, RAR), followed by significant outbound network connections to common cloud storage or anonymization endpoints, and concluding with mass file modifications indicative of encryption activity.
Detects modifications, creations, or deletions of critical CI/CD pipeline configuration files (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, Azure Pipelines) across cloud service logs. The rule correlates these actions with the account's historical IP baseline to identify potentially unauthorized changes originating from anomalous locations.
Detects browser extension updates that request a combination of high-risk permissions capable of account takeover (e.g., cookies, webRequest, identity) for extensions previously classified as low-risk. This pattern often indicates a supply chain compromise where a benign extension is acquired and subsequently updated with malicious capabilities.

This pattern often indicates a supply chain compromise where a benign extension is acquired and subsequently updated with malicious capabilities.
Detects the deletion, truncation, or modification of critical PaperCut server logs and application files (server.log, pcxboot_l.txt, .bin files). This activity is associated with attempts to conceal exploitation of PaperCut vulnerabilities (e.g., CVE-2026-82078/81578) by clearing logs or tampering with binaries, typically executed by the PaperCut application processes themselves (pc-app.exe or Java runtime).
Correlates a sequence of suspicious activities on a single host within 90 minutes: LSASS memory access consistent with credential dumping, followed by remote service or WMI-based lateral movement, and finishing with mass file renames or modifications characteristic of ransomware encryption.
Detects the creation of .aspx, .ashx, or .asp files within Exchange OWA/ECP or IIS wwwroot directories by web server processes (w3wp.exe or UMWorkerProcess.exe). This pattern is consistent with web shell deployment following the exploitation of public-facing web applications, a technique often used by threat actors like APT40.
Detects a multi-stage attack pattern involving a non-MFA login to a Citrix portal, followed by lateral movement, and concluding with ransomware deployment behaviors such as shadow copy deletion, recovery disablement, or the dropping of ransom notes associated with ALPHV/BlackCat ransomware.
