Detects various process execution behaviors associated with the Lazarus Group, including attempts to dump SAM registry hive, network connection enumeration using netstat, network share discovery patterns, persistence mechanisms involving common program data directories, and rundll32 execution with specific file extensions.
This rule detects attempts to inject Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) payloads via GET requests in web access logs. It specifically looks for common XSS strings and encoded variations within the request URL, such as '<script>', '<iframe>', '<svg>', 'document.cookie', 'document.domain', 'onerror=', 'onresize=', 'onload=', 'onmouseover=', '${alert', 'javascript:alert', and their URL-encoded forms. The rule filters out requests that result in a 404 HTTP status code to reduce false positives.
Detects a potentially suspicious execution where a parent process located in the "\Users\Public" folder executes a child process that is a common shell or scripting binary, indicated by its image name or command line arguments. This behavior is often associated with malware attempting to hide in a publicly accessible directory and then execute further malicious commands.
Detects process executions characteristic of Formbook malware. Specifically, it looks for processes originating from System32 or SysWOW64 directories with an executable extension, that then execute a command line containing '/c', 'del', and paths within 'C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Temp\' or 'C:\Users\<user>\Desktop\'. It also covers a variant using '/C' and 'type nul >' for deletion on the Desktop. The rule aims to avoid false positives by excluding parent processes with command line parameters, suggesting an injection scenario where the parent process itself doesn't have complex command line arguments.
Detects suspicious child processes spawning from Microsoft Office suite applications (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote) on macOS. This behavior often indicates malicious macro execution attempting to leverage scripting interpreters or command-line utilities for further compromise.
Detects the execution of 'curl.exe' with the '-c' flag or '--cookie-jar' option to save cookie data. This activity can be indicative of an attacker attempting to hijack sessions by extracting authentication cookies.
Detects when the Microsoft Management Console (MMC) spawns a Windows shell or command-line executable. This behavior can indicate an adversary abusing the MMC2.0 Application COM object for remote code execution or lateral movement. The rule specifically looks for mmc.exe as the parent process of common shell executables like cmd.exe, powershell.exe, wscript.exe, cscript.exe, reg.exe, regsvr32.exe, or other scripting/command interpreters.
This rule detects suspicious scripting commands within WMI event consumers, which can be indicative of persistence mechanisms. Specifically, it looks for PowerShell web download commands (`new-object net.webclient .downloadstring`, `new-object net.webclient .downloadfile`), common PowerShell execution flags (`-nop`, `-noprofile`, `-decode`, `-enc`), and references to `WScript.Shell` or `System.Security.Cryptography.FromBase64Transform` within the 'Destination' field of WMI event logs. These patterns are frequently used by attackers to execute malicious scripts or download payloads via WMI persistence.
Detects a specific command line argument sequence used by the SNAKE malware during its installation phase, as detailed in a CISA report. The rule looks for a process creation event where the command line contains two specific arguments: the first is a 64-character hexadecimal string (assumed to be a SHA-256 hash), and the second is at least a 16-character hexadecimal string (assumed to be part of an AES initialization vector).
This rule identifies when a new Azure Cloud Shell instance is created within the Azure portal. Cloud Shell provides a browser-based shell experience for managing Azure resources, and its creation could indicate administrative activity, or potentially, an attacker establishing a persistent command-line environment within a compromised Azure subscription.
Detects the spawning of suspicious child processes by an Atlassian Confluence server, specifically looking for shell interpreters (sh, bash, dash, ksh, zsh, csh, fish), curl, wget, or python being executed as child processes of the Confluence Java process. This behavior is indicative of successful exploitation of CVE-2022-26134, a critical remote code execution vulnerability in Atlassian Confluence. The rule focuses on the post-exploitation phase where an attacker would execute commands on the compromised server.
Detects the creation of a suspicious Alternate Data Stream (ADS) file, specifically a ':Zone.Identifier' stream, by processes other than common web browsers. The ':Zone.Identifier' ADS is used by Windows to mark files downloaded from the internet, indicating their origin and often triggering security warnings. This rule looks for the creation of this ADS with a 'ZoneId=3' (indicating an internet origin) on executable or document file types. By filtering out known browser processes, the rule aims to identify instances where other applications or scripts might be creating these ADS files, potentially as a defense evasion technique to bypass security warnings or to masquerade malicious files.
This rule detects PowerShell script blocks that attempt to execute batch scripts (.cmd or .bat files) using 'Start-Process'. This behavior can be indicative of an adversary abusing the Windows command shell for execution, potentially to run a series of commands or a malicious payload.
This rule detects potential exploitation of CVE-2023-21554, dubbed 'QueueJumper'. The vulnerability allows for unauthorized remote code execution within the MSMQ service. The rule specifically looks for the 'mqsvc.exe' process (Microsoft Message Queuing service) spawning common Windows command-line interpreters or scripting engines, which would indicate an attempt to execute arbitrary code.
Detects the execution of PHP CLI with the "-r" flag to run inline PHP code, specifically looking for calls to the "fsockopen" function. This combination is often used by attackers to create sockets for reverse shell connections, potentially in conjunction with functions like "exec" or "fopen". The rule also checks for common Unix shell names in the command line, indicating an attempt to spawn a shell.
Detects the execution of the 'jamf' binary with specific commands that could be used by attackers for privilege escalation, bypassing security controls, or modifying system configurations. This includes creating user accounts, managing the JAMF framework, removing MDM profiles, resetting passwords, and setting computer names.
Detects execution of the perl binary with the "-e" flag and common strings related to potential reverse shell activity. This rule looks for specific patterns in the command line arguments that indicate an attempt to establish a reverse shell using Perl's networking capabilities.
Detects the execution of common shell interpreters (bash, csh, dash, fish, ksh, sh, zsh) where the parent process is located within the '/tmp/' directory. This behavior is often indicative of malware, such as GobRAT, dropping and executing malicious components in temporary locations to evade detection.
This rule detects the use of Gpg4win (gpg.exe or gpg2.exe) to encrypt or decrypt files. The detection specifically triggers when the command line includes the '-passphrase' argument and the file being operated on is located in suspicious directories such as 'PerfLogs', 'Temp', 'Users\Public', 'Windows\Temp', 'AppData\Local\Temp', or 'AppData\Roaming'. This behavior can indicate an adversary encrypting collected data before exfiltration or using these common staging areas for malicious operations.
Detects the spawning of suspicious child processes by the Atlassian Confluence server, which may indicate successful exploitation of CVE-2021-26084. The rule specifically looks for the Confluence Java process spawning common command-line utilities and scripting interpreters often used in post-exploitation activities.
Detects the execution of processes where the parent process is 'ws_tomcatservice.exe', excluding 'repadmin.exe'. This activity has been observed in campaigns attributed to Mint Sandstorm, specifically leveraging Log4J vulnerabilities.
