This query was originally published in the threat analytics report, OSX/Shlayer sustains adware push.
Shlayer is adware that spies on users' search terms, and redirects network traffic to serve the user attacker-controlled search results containing ads.
The following query locates activity associated with the Shlayer payload decrypter.

This rule detects the execution or creation of files identified as Remote Access Tools (RATs) based on a Google Cloud Threat Intelligence (GCTI) feed. It correlates process launch, module load, or file creation events with known SHA256 hashes of RATs provided by the GCTI feed. The rule specifically looks for events where the SHA256 hash of the process or file matches a hash from the 'Remote Access Tools' threat feed within the GCTI graph.

This rule detects when a file, identified as malicious by Google Safe Browsing, initiates an outbound network connection to an IP address known to be a Tor Exit Node, as identified by Google Cloud Threat Intelligence (GCTI) Feed. This indicates potential command and control (C2) communication or data exfiltration by malware attempting to anonymize its network traffic.

This rule detects outbound network connections to IP addresses that have been observed for the first time within the last 24 hours. It specifically excludes connections to private IP address ranges (RFC1918). The detection relies on correlating current network connection events with historical 'first seen' data for IP addresses from an entity graph.

This rule detects outbound network connections to IP addresses that exhibit low prevalence within the monitored environment. Specifically, it flags connections to IPs that have a rolling maximum prevalence of 1 to 3 occurrences over a 10-day period. This behavior can be indicative of command and control (C2) communication, data exfiltration, or other suspicious activities where adversaries might use newly registered or rarely seen infrastructure.

This rule detects outbound network connections to known Tor exit nodes. It leverages a Google Cloud Threat Intelligence (GCTI) feed that provides a list of current Tor exit node IP addresses. The rule specifically looks for allowed network connections where the target IP address is identified as a Tor exit node by the GCTI feed. This can indicate an attempt to anonymize network traffic, which is often associated with malicious activity.

This rule detects the launch of processes whose associated file hash (SHA256) has a low prevalence across the monitored environment. Specifically, it flags processes where the SHA256 hash has been observed on 1 to 3 distinct endpoints over the past 10 days. This can indicate the execution of rare or newly introduced executables, which could be malicious.

This rule detects when a known malicious file, identified by its SHA256 hash through VirusTotal relationships, attempts to contact a domain that VirusTotal also associates with that file. It correlates DNS query events with VirusTotal intelligence to identify suspicious network communications originating from potentially compromised systems.

Detects the execution of the "pbpaste" utility on macOS. This utility retrieves the contents of the clipboard and writes them to standard output. Attackers can abuse this utility to collect sensitive data, such as passwords or other confidential information, from the user's clipboard. The rule is designed to hunt for potential malicious use of pbpaste by examining the parent process and command-line arguments for suspicious activity.

The following analytic identifies processes referencing plist files that determine which applications are re-opened when a user reboots their MacOS machine. It leverages data from Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) agents, focusing on process names and parent processes related to "com.apple.loginwindow." This activity is significant because it can indicate attempts to persist across reboots, a common tactic used by attackers to maintain access. If confirmed malicious, this could allow an attacker to execute code or maintain persistence on the affected system, potentially leading to further compromise.

The following analytic detects the usage of the `plutil` command to modify plist files on macOS systems. It leverages osquery to monitor process events, specifically looking for executions of `/usr/bin/plutil`. This activity is significant because adversaries can use `plutil` to alter plist files, potentially adding malicious binaries or command-line arguments that execute upon user logon or system startup. If confirmed malicious, this could allow attackers to achieve persistence, execute arbitrary code, or escalate privileges, posing a significant threat to the system's security.
