Detects the privilege escalation sequence used by VILE ransomware, which involves manipulating process tokens via a combination of OpenProcessToken, LookupPrivilegeValueW, AdjustTokenPrivileges, GetTokenInformation, SetTokenInformation, and DuplicateTokenEx. This is followed by the termination of processes using TerminateProcess, typically performed to release locked files before encryption.

Detects instances where wermgr.exe, typically used for Windows Error Reporting (WER), spawns interactive command-line interfaces such as cmd.exe, powershell.exe, or others. This behavior is indicative of exploitation (such as CVE-2026-50656) where an attacker has redirected a scheduled task to execute malicious code under SYSTEM integrity, masquerading as the wermgr.exe process.

Detects potential privilege escalation attempts targeting AnyDesk runtime via named pipe exploitation. The rule monitors for unauthorized cross-process access to AnyDesk processes, AnyDesk spawning suspicious child processes indicative of post-exploitation activity, and the execution of a known vulnerable AnyDesk binary version.

Detects unauthorized execution of wermgr.exe from suspicious paths or spawned by Task Scheduler service (svchost.exe/taskeng.exe) with non-standard parent processes. This behavior is indicative of privilege escalation attempts where an unprivileged process leverages the Windows Error Reporting (WER) QueueReporting scheduled task to execute a malicious payload in the context of the SYSTEM account.

Detects anomalous instances of conhost.exe running with SYSTEM integrity within an interactive user logon session. This behavior is indicative of session hijacking techniques, such as those leveraging named pipes or LaunchConsoleInSessionId, used to force console hosts into user-controlled sessions to potentially capture input or manipulate processes.

709
Detects unauthorized processes attempting to access the ICMLuaUtil Elevated COM interface CLSID. This registry-based activity is indicative of a UAC bypass technique, where malicious actors, such as the ResiLoader threat, gain elevated privileges without triggering a standard UAC consent prompt.

Detects the modification of the EnableLUA registry key via the reg.exe utility. Setting EnableLUA to 0 effectively disables Windows User Account Control (UAC), which is a common post-exploitation technique used to elevate privileges or bypass security prompts.

Detects Active Directory Certificate Services (ADCS) certificate enrollment requests where the requester attempts to enroll a certificate with a Subject Alternative Name (SAN) identifying a different principal than the requester's own account. This pattern is indicative of the ESC1 ADCS misconfiguration abuse, which can lead to privilege escalation by impersonating other domain entities.

Detects indicators of the DirtyClone (CVE-2026-43503) Linux kernel local privilege escalation exploit. The rule identifies the execution or compilation of the PoC binary, the specific su invocation used for shell spawning by the exploit, and subsequent post-exploitation actions including modifying sensitive files (/etc/passwd, /etc/sudoers) and creating new local accounts with sudo privileges.

0119
Detects DLL side-loading attacks where consent.exe loads known malicious DLLs (version.dll, rtworkq.dll, wmsgapi.dll, and the older msimg32.dll) from non-standard locations. This technique is used by Shanya-packed malware including EDR Killer and CastleRAT to load malicious payloads while appearing as a legitimate Windows UAC process.

Detects the loading of known vulnerable drivers (e.g., ProcessMonitorDriver.sys, inpoutx64.sys) associated with 'The Gentlemen' RaaS group, used in BYOVD attacks to elevate privileges and terminate security products.

Detects attempts to exploit the SystemInformer (formerly Process Hacker) service (phsvc) for local privilege escalation. The rule monitors for abnormal process spawning by rundll32.exe, the presence of specific PoC artifacts like 'phsvc_rundll_poc.dll', 'systeminformer_phsvc_poc.txt', or command-line arguments containing 'SYSTEMINFORMER_PHSVC_POC', and loading of DLLs from user-writable temporary directories.

This rule detects potentially malicious activity associated with the exploitation of CVE-2026-45115 in AnyDesk, including the creation of the 'adprinterpipe' named pipe, the spawning of suspicious elevated child processes (e.g., cmd.exe, powershell.exe) by AnyDesk processes, or the installation of services from an AnyDesk process context.

009
Detects registry access attempts to the CLSID registration entries for Chrome, Brave, and Edge IElevator COM interfaces. These interfaces are designed for browser-internal maintenance tasks. Adversaries, such as the operators of WEES Stealer, abuse these interfaces by invoking the IElevator DecryptData method via out-of-process COM activation to decrypt App-Bound encryption keys, bypassing standard browser security boundaries.

Detects potential local privilege escalation activity involving AnyDesk. The rule monitors for malicious registry modifications (COM hijack), spawning of suspicious child processes by AnyDesk, creation of specific named-pipe artifacts, unsigned DLL loads from user-writable directories, and unauthorized cross-process injection, potentially linked to CVE-2026-20253.

This rule detects potential exploitation of a privilege escalation vulnerability (identified as CVE-2026-46331) involving the manipulation of Linux Traffic Control (tc) pedit actions or user/network namespace unsharing shortly after a setuid binary execution or root shell spawn. This behavior is indicative of a 'Copy-on-Write' (COW) or similar kernel-level vulnerability exploitation chain where unprivileged users abuse system features to gain elevated privileges.

Detects the creation or modification of WMI event subscriptions via EventID 5861 from the Microsoft-Windows-WMI-Activity log. This activity, involving EventFilters, EventConsumers, or FilterToConsumerBindings, is a well-known technique used by adversaries to establish persistence and achieve execution triggered by system events, often resulting in elevated SYSTEM privileges.

Detects instances where the RustDesk remote support process (rustdesk.exe) spawns suspicious child processes such as command shells, scripting engines, or administrative utilities. This behavior is indicative of a potential session permission bypass or post-exploitation activity where an attacker leverages the context of the remote support application to execute arbitrary commands.

Detects the creation of the '\adprinterpipe' named pipe by a process other than authorized AnyDesk binaries. This activity is indicative of a local privilege escalation (LPE) technique where an attacker pre-creates the pipe to impersonate the AnyDesk service and intercept a SYSTEM-level token.
