Detects potential DLL sideloading where the legitimate Avira antivirus binary (avscan.exe) loads a custom DLL (avscan.dll) from user-writable directories such as AppData, Public, or ProgramData, potentially accompanied by a configuration file.
Detects executable files saved to user-writable profile folders (Desktop, Downloads, Documents and similar) on Windows endpoints when the file has no company name in its PE version information. Commercial software almost always carries this field, while malware, masqueraded tools and quick custom builds often do not. Detection relies on file signature rather than extension. Portable utilities and internal tools also match, so triage by hash, writing process, file path and download source.
Detects execution of virtualization and container software on Windows endpoints by image name, covering Hyper-V, VMware, VirtualBox, QEMU, Xen, Parallels, WSL, Docker and containerd. Attackers can run payloads inside a virtual machine or WSL instance to hide activity from host-based security tools. Developers and administrators use these tools routinely, so the rule suits inventory and hunting. To triage, check the user, parent process, command line and hash, and whether the host is expected to run virtual machines.
Detects Microsoft 365 token replay from the Huntress token spray and replay campaign. Alerts on sign-ins from an IP new to the account (not seen on 3 or more distinct days in the 14d baseline) that match one of three behaviors: a scripted client (node or bare Mozilla/5.0 user agent with Office or Authentication Broker client IDs), Device Registration Service access (Medium-High only when corroborated by a campaign IP, scripted user agent or session IP hop, otherwise Low), or one session moving across IPs within 60 minutes. Rows are raised to High when the same new IP hits 3 or more baseline accounts in the window (token spray pattern) or matches a campaign IOC. Low Signal rows are dropped when AlertOnly = true. Does not cover MFA changes, device registration events or inbox rules.
Detects user accounts that have been disabled for an extended period (greater than 100 days), which could potentially be abused or overlooked.
Detects successful Entra ID sign-ins using the device code authentication flow by users who have no prior device code sign-in history within a 30-day baseline window. This behavior can indicate device code phishing or abuse of the device code grant mechanism.
Detects Microsoft 365 session token replay as described in the Huntress token spray research: sign-ins from the campaign addresses, scripted clients (node or a bare Mozilla/5.0 user agent) using the Office, Authentication Broker or OfficeHome app IDs from an address new to the account, Device Registration Service access from a new address and one session seen from different operating systems and addresses. The campaign address list is short lived and serves as enrichment.
Detects a file creation event for any executable inside the "tmphtml" staging
directory beneath the AOMEI Backupper installation path, where the creating process
is Backupper.exe. The application stages popup resources here before relocating them
to html\; a genuine promotional bundle contains no executables, so an .exe written
to this path indicates a tampered bundle.

Detects a sequence of events on Linux hosts involving a remote interactive or network logon from an external IP, followed within 5 minutes by root-level process execution, and subsequently within 2 hours by an outbound SSH connection to a private or known attacker IP. Also includes a separate branch for direct logons from known malicious IPs.
Detects AWS OIDC role assumption by a GitHub workflow running on a ci-sync-<6 chars> branch followed within an hour by Secrets Manager reads using the same session credentials, as seen in the Gheist campaign.
Detects when a user authenticates via device code flow or performs device registration/ownership addition, followed by a bulk download of SharePoint or OneDrive files (25 or more distinct files) within a 60-minute window. This behavior can indicate session hijacking or unauthorized access where an attacker uses device code phishing to gain access and quickly exfiltrate cloud documents.
Detects behavior where PowerShell or pwsh executes msiexec.exe to silently install an MSI file located in a temporary directory with a GUID-prefixed filename, optionally following a recent download from a remote URL.
Detects Salat Stealer dropping and executing copies of Lightshot.exe in trusted directories such as Windows NT, Edge, and Chrome application paths, as well as process spawn chains involving masqueraded Lightshot executables.
Detects PHP SAPI processes accessing /proc/self/mem (or equivalent memory mapping) and subsequently spawning a Unix shell, which is characteristic of web shell activity or exploitation of PHP memory corruption/injection vulnerabilities like zif_system.
Detects msiexec.exe spawning scripting or programming engines (such as PowerShell or Python) that perform LDAP directory searches and establish outbound external network connections within a specific time window.
Hunting query for the ConnectWise Cloud Backup (SkyKick) application credential abuse reported in October 2026. It returns three signals, sorted by a Priority column. First, sign-ins by the seven ConnectWise and SkyKick application IDs from a public IP address. ConnectWise states the Cloud Backup app normally signs in from Azure private IPv6 addresses. Second, service principals that sign in from a public IP address in a country not seen in their 14-day baseline. This signal evaluates apps with at least 20 prior sign-ins. Third, Entra audit events initiated by applications. These include an application adding itself or another non-user identity to a directory role, an application adding or changing credentials for the first time in the baseline window and any credential change by an application named ConnectWise or SkyKick. Role additions with an unidentified target appear with Review priority. Audit events initiated by applications carry no source IP, so the IP indicator applies to the sign-in signals only. Routine credential changes by Azure services can still appear with Review priority. The query follows the Microsoft Defender advanced hunting schemas and runs without errors in Advanced Hunting. The audit signal was exercised against live Entra audit events in a Microsoft 365 tenant. Indicator columns are short-lived and used for enrichment only.
Detects a sequence where PowerShell downloads an .msi file from Azure Blob storage (blob.core.windows.net), followed by msiexec.exe spawning PowerShell on the same device within 30 minutes.
Detects when the aws command line binary is used to create an address group with a 0.0.0.0 IP, which means any IP address. This action would expose services to the internet and is used by adversaries to allow access to compromised systems.
Detects DeElevate64.exe within the Stardock Smart DeElevation Tool directory loading I++u.dll, a known malicious loader dependency associated with patched DeElevator64.dll usage.
Detects execution of BlackX UEFI bootkit installer components, renamed helper binaries acting as payloads (such as jcef_helper.exe renamed to googleupdate.exe), or known malicious file hashes associated with BlackX campaigns.
