This query was originally published in the threat analytics report, "Exchange Server zero-days exploited in the wild".
In early March 2021, Microsoft released patches for four different zero-day vulnerabilities affecting Microsoft Exchange Server. The vulnerabilities were being used in a coordinated attack. For more information on the vulnerabilities, visit the following links:
1. CVE-2021-26855
2. CVE-2021-26857
3. CVE-2021-26858
4. CVE-2021-27065
The following query finds evidence of Base64-encoded commands used by the Nishang penetration testing framework to load a reverse TCP shell. This might indicate an attacker has remote access to the device.
More queries related to this threat can be found under the See also section of this page.

This rule detects the use of 'dd' and 'truncate' commands to add junk data to a file, a technique adversaries may employ for binary padding to evade detection. Specifically, it looks for 'truncate' with the '-s' (size) option or 'dd' with 'if=' (input file) but without 'of=' (output file), indicating potential in-place modification or padding.

This rule detects the use of 'dd' and 'truncate' utilities to add junk data to a file, a technique known as binary padding. Adversaries may use this method to alter the on-disk representation of malware, potentially bypassing security tools that have file size limitations or rely on hash-based detection.
