Detects processes running from suspicious, writable directories (Temp, AppData, Downloads) that simultaneously load the .NET Common Language Runtime (clr.dll) and initiate network connections. This behavior is indicative of a downloaded binary or payload executing managed code to perform C2 communication.
Detects the use of PowerShell commands that reflectively load .NET assemblies into memory using 'Reflection.Assembly::Load' or 'Assembly.Load'. This technique is frequently utilized by malicious scripts and fileless malware to execute code directly in memory, bypassing traditional disk-based detection mechanisms.
Detects a suspicious sequence of events associated with the Operation DragonReturn DcRAT campaign. The rule monitors for the loading of amsi.dll followed by bcrypt.dll within a 5-minute window by specific processes (e.g., Mixed Reality.exe). This pattern is indicative of an AMSI in-memory bypass via AmsiOpenSession patching, followed by the decryption and loading of a .NET assembly, commonly used to maintain stealth during malware execution.
Detects PowerShell executing a reflective .NET assembly load, indicated by keywords like 'Reflection.Assembly', 'Load', and 'byte' in the command line. The detection is further refined by looking for 'Extension.SubRoutine', 'Run2', or the C2 domain 'hellolargeworld.com' in the command line, and specifically targets instances where the initiating process is 'node.exe'. This behavior is indicative of the 'protocal.cjs' backdoor.
Detects PowerShell executing a reflective .NET assembly load, potentially indicative of a backdoor, initiated by a Node.js process. The detection specifically looks for keywords related to .NET Reflection, assembly loading, byte arrays, and a suspicious C2 domain (hellolargeworld.com) or invocation method (Extension.SubRoutine.Run2).
This rule detects the execution of processes where the image path or parent process path originates from anonymous memory file descriptors ('/memfd:') or file descriptor links ('/proc/self/fd/'). These patterns are frequently associated with fileless malware execution where binaries are executed directly from memory to avoid disk-based detection.
Detects execution patterns associated with fileless techniques on Linux systems, specifically looking for the usage of the memfd_create system call or referencing /proc/self/fd/ to execute code directly from memory. These methods are frequently used by adversaries to load and run malicious payloads without writing files to disk, bypassing traditional file-based antivirus scanners.
Detects PowerShell commands that reverse byte arrays before dynamically loading assemblies into memory, a behavior commonly associated with advanced malware loaders and fileless execution techniques. The rule specifically looks for PowerShell process command lines containing 'IO.File', 'System.Reflection.Assembly', 'Length-1', and '..0', which are indicative of byte array manipulation and in-memory assembly loading.
Detects the SPECTRALVIPER actor's malicious activity where IntelAudioService.exe is utilized to sideload the unauthorized 'DtlCrashCatch.dll' library, which then performs reflective code injection into the 'OneDrive.Sync.Services.exe' process for in-memory payload execution.
Detects a PowerShell process initiated by node.exe that attempts to reflectively load a .NET assembly from memory. The detection specifically looks for keywords related to .NET Reflection, byte array loading, and a known C2 domain (hellolargeworld.com), along with the 'Extension.SubRoutine.Run2' invocation, indicating potential backdoor activity.
This rule detects PowerShell commands that perform XOR decryption of an embedded payload using the hardcoded key 'Pussecretvk456' and subsequently use [System.Reflection.Assembly]::Load to reflectively load the resulting .NET assembly into memory. This behavior is indicative of fileless execution patterns commonly observed in the LokiBot and Amadey malware families.
Detects malicious process injection behavior attributed to Operation DragonReturn, where an illegitimate executable named 'Mixed Reality.exe' located within a 'Windows Media Player' directory spawns 'svchost.exe'. This activity is indicative of a DcRAT payload attempting to inject fileless .NET code into a legitimate system process using techniques such as VirtualAllocEx, WriteProcessMemory, and CreateRemoteThread.
This rule detects when known DLL files (7z.dll or normaliz.dll) are loaded by a process from a file path containing 'Traiolx Custom Utils'. This pattern is often indicative of DLL side-loading or hijacking, where an adversary places malicious or proxy DLLs in a custom directory to be loaded by a legitimate application.
Detects the execution of LuaJit.exe with a config.ini script, which acts as a Lua-based shellcode loader for BeepRAT. The loader uses Lua FFI to call Windows APIs such as VirtualAlloc and CreateThread to execute shellcode stored in temp.bin directly in memory. This pattern is indicative of fileless execution techniques employed by the BeepRAT remote access trojan.
Detects the BeepRAT malware using the Tiny C Compiler (tcc.exe) to execute shellcode directly from memory. The rule identifies TCC execution from non-standard directories (specifically within %LOCALAPPDATA%\TCC) using specific flags (-nostdlib -run), and correlates this activity with the creation of an elevated scheduled task named 'WindowsUpdateTempFileCleanUp' used for persistence.
Detects evidence of the MYRA Linux RAT executing payloads filelessly from memory using memfd_create and fexecve. The rule flags suspicious processes masquerading as systemd-userdbd, particularly when spawned from Node.js environments or associated with malicious packages like apintergrationpost or .libcache.so artifacts.
Detects fileless Linux malware execution patterns that run payloads from anonymous memory files (memfd_create) or inherited file descriptors under /proc/self/fd without touching disk. Used by Linux backdoors and miners to evade filesystem-based detection.
Detects instances where the DonutLoader utility performs in-memory .NET payload execution. It identifies suspicious behavior by tracking the loading of clr.dll into a process that is not a recognized .NET host, concurrent with evidence of process hollowing techniques such as memory unmapping and process writing (NtUnmapViewOfSection, WriteProcessMemory, ResumeThread).
Detects PowerShell scripts that contain custom bit-reversal and XOR decoding routines used to deobfuscate an embedded byte blob, followed by the reflective loading of that blob into memory as a .NET assembly using [Reflection.Assembly]::Load. This behavior is associated with loaders like cap.ps1 used to deploy RATs such as AsyncRAT.
This rule detects potentially malicious process behavior on Linux systems. It triggers on two conditions: 1) Masquerading of the 'systemd-userdbd' process by detecting processes named 'systemd-userdbd' that do not originate from the legitimate system path. 2) Fileless execution by detecting process image paths that contain 'memfd:', which is commonly associated with loading malicious binaries directly from anonymous memory to evade disk-based detection.
Detects multiple techniques associated with Linux post-exploitation and persistence, including LD_PRELOAD environment variable hijacking, suspicious cron jobs, profile.d persistence modifications, systemd service masquerading via prctl, and fileless execution via memfd_create.
