Detects the invocation of Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) binaries (wsl.exe or wslconfig.exe) using command-line arguments that enable arbitrary command execution, such as -e, --exec, or shell interpreters (bash -c, sh -c), or web-based retrieval tools like curl/wget. This technique is often used to execute commands or download payloads within a Linux environment on Windows, potentially bypassing security controls focused on native Windows processes.
Detects a suspicious sequence of events where a known web server process (e.g., IIS, Nginx, Apache) spawns a command shell process, followed shortly by the creation of a file with a web shell-like extension (.aspx, .jsp, .php) in the same environment. This pattern is indicative of an adversary exploiting a public-facing application to upload and potentially access a web shell.
Detects potential 'ClickFix' activity where a browser or file explorer process initiates a shell (e.g., cmd, powershell, osascript) with command arguments indicative of remote script execution, obfuscated commands, or web-based payload downloading. This pattern matches known social engineering tactics that entice users to copy-paste malicious code into a system shell.
Detects the deployment of the CARBONATO botnet's Hermes Agent within containerized environments. The rule identifies specific artifacts such as the 'SOUL.md' persona configuration, 'netd-svc' container references, and indicators of AI-focused credential theft (e.g., searching for OpenAI or Anthropic API keys) orchestrated by the GH0ST AI agent.
Detects the use of the 'nsenter' utility to target the PID 1 namespace with host-level namespace flags. This technique is used by the CARBONATO botnet to escape from a privileged Docker container and execute commands on the underlying host system, leveraging the host filesystem mount.
Detects the deployment and operational artifacts associated with the Hermes Agent framework using the CARBONATO GH0ST persona on Linux systems. This detection focuses on identifying specific file-system indicators, including persona configuration files (SOUL.md), loot staging directories, and deployment entry scripts (entry.sh or CARBONATO_API_KEY artifacts) that indicate malicious activity and potential AI-driven Telegram command and control (C2) staging.
Detects malicious staging and C2 activity characteristic of RatHat Android malware. The rule identifies processes running under the Android shell user (UID 2000) that execute specific tools (minicap, minitouch, or disguised libraries) from the /data/local/tmp directory, followed by an outbound network connection, which is indicative of a persistence mechanism and reverse-tunneling command-and-control communication.
Experimental behavioral hunt for a root-owned shell or interpreter started by a non-root initiating account on explicitly inventoried ISE devices. This identifies an account-context transition in process telemetry; it does not establish preceding exploitation, setuid abuse, or a specific Cisco CVE. Requires verified appliance process telemetry.
This rule detects the 'ClickFix' attack pattern, where an adversary tricks a user into copying and pasting a malicious command into a terminal. The command typically involves using 'base64 -D' to decode an attacker-supplied blob directly into a bash interpreter, often initiated by a Terminal emulator and containing strings related to fake reCAPTCHA or robot verification.
Detects the use of standard command-line utilities (curl, wget) by shell processes (bash, sh) on macOS when fetching a file with a specific force flag. This pattern is indicative of automated attempts to bypass existing file checks or force the download of remote payloads.
This rule detects potential supply chain compromise by monitoring common Linux package managers (pip, npm, apt, gem) for installation commands targeting non-standard, unauthorized registries, and for the subsequent execution of shells or network utilities by these package manager processes.
Detects a multi-stage loader execution chain, potentially named GHAPPIER, by identifying sequential stages of execution. These stages include initial marker file checks, shell-based command dispatching via curl/wget, renaming and execution of secondary payloads, Node.js-based runtime staging, and the eventual creation of implant artifacts in common paths such as VSCode extensions or hidden directories.
Detects the execution of cloud CLI tools (aws, az, gcloud) using Unix shells (bash, sh) to perform sensitive operations such as listing secrets, keys, or metadata, which may indicate credential discovery or exfiltration.
Detects malicious BASH_ENV injection within GitHub Actions CI pipelines originating from the compromised sckit_poetry_build.py build backend. The injection, which targets GITHUB_ENV to introduce a malicious _pypi_bridge.sh script, is used to intercept PyPI publishing tokens during build processes, characteristic of the MemTensor/sckit supply chain attack.
This rule detects potentially malicious command execution initiated by web browsers (Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari, Opera). It identifies scenarios where browsers spawn PowerShell on Windows with encoded command arguments or spawn shells (zsh, bash, sh) on macOS while piping commands retrieved via curl or wget, which is a common pattern for dropper and fileless malware delivery.
Detects the execution of shell interpreters (PowerShell, CMD, Bash, Zsh) with suspicious command-line arguments typically associated with malicious activity, such as encoded commands, hidden window styles, or network download requests, when initiated by common user-facing applications like web browsers or Windows Explorer.
Detects malicious bash scripts identified as part of the BYOB C2 framework infrastructure. These scripts are designed to download and install second-stage payloads such as Meterpreter or XMRig-style cryptominers. The rule identifies these scripts by their specific naming conventions, embedded C2 infrastructure indicators, and persistence mechanisms including crontab, systemd, and rc.local.
Detects the creation or modification of a file within the /etc/cron.d/ directory, followed shortly by a Bash process invocation using /dev/tcp redirection. This pattern is commonly used by attackers to achieve persistence via cron and establish reverse shells, bypassing potential limitations of default system shells that do not support /dev/tcp syntax.
This rule detects scenarios where an AI agent executes shell commands or system-level tools immediately after receiving a prompt injection attack from an untrusted source. It correlates agent audit logs—specifically identifying tool calls flagged for prompt injection—with actual endpoint process creation events. It flags process execution as 'High' severity if the command line matches common malicious patterns like encoded commands, IEX, or attempts to access credential material (e.g., lsass, mimikatz).
Detects execution of remote payloads by piping the output of network utilities like curl or wget directly into a shell interpreter (bash, sh, zsh). This pattern is a common technique used by attackers to execute malicious scripts directly from a remote server without saving a file to disk.
This rule detects suspicious activity involving macOS LaunchAgents and files within the 'Application Support/System' directory, often associated with persistence or malicious background execution. The detection looks for the creation or modification of specific plist files (e.g., com.apple.finder.agent.plist) or git-related files in Application Support, correlated with process execution of commands like 'sysnotif-repair', 'launchctl' manipulating agents, or git operations involving custom hooks paths.
