Detects web access logs matching the specific 'wp_debug_session' parameter used by the ErrTraffic webshell to communicate with compromised servers. This rule identifies HTTP requests containing both 'wp_debug_session=' and 'mode=php' in the URI query, which are indicators of the ErrTraffic webshell activity.

This rule monitors for suspicious activity related to Microsoft Exchange server exploitation and persistence techniques. It detects three distinct behaviors: the creation of web shell files (.aspx, .ashx, .asmx) within Exchange directories (OWA/ECP), the spawning of shell processes (cmd, powershell) by the w3wp.exe web server process, and DLL sideloading occurring through identified signed binaries (dfsvc.exe, rasautou.exe) outside of standard system directories.

Detects anomalous web session traffic that proxies enterprise authorization endpoints (e.g., oauth, saml, login) while simultaneously interacting with session-related cookies. This behavior is indicative of an Adversary-in-the-Middle (AiTM) proxy setup used to capture session tokens and bypass authentication.

This rule detects when the Internet Information Services (IIS) worker process (w3wp.exe) accesses sensitive files such as 'web.config', 'applicationHost.config', or 'win.ini'. Unauthorized access to these files by the IIS process can be an indicator of a web shell or other malicious post-exploitation activity attempting to steal credentials, application secrets, or system configuration information.

This rule detects outgoing network connections from the IIS worker process (w3wp.exe) to public-facing URLs that match common Microsoft Office WOPI (Web Application Open Platform Interface) request patterns, but are directed to domains other than trusted Microsoft-affiliated infrastructure. This behavior can be indicative of a Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) attempt, where an attacker tries to coerce the server into making unauthorized requests to external resources.

Detects the decoded execution of bash/sh reverse shells initiated from processes like node.exe or python.exe, which is indicative of the Void Dokkaebi threat actor's tactics. The rule specifically looks for command lines containing 'echo' with base64 encoded strings, followed by 'base64 -d' and then 'sh' or 'bash' for execution.

Detects attempts to upload files to the SharePoint master page gallery using a POST request. This activity can be indicative of an attacker attempting to establish persistence or deface the SharePoint site by modifying its core components. The rule specifically looks for requests to '_layouts/15/Upload.aspx' or '_layouts/Upload.aspx' with 'RootFolder' and 'List' parameters containing '_catalogs/masterpage' or directory traversal sequences ('../').

Detects web shell deployment and subsequent execution activities associated with the StrikeShark threat. The detection covers two primary behaviors: 1) IIS worker processes (w3wp.exe or UMWorkerProcess.exe) spawning suspicious child processes (cmd.exe, powershell.exe, etc.) indicating shell command execution, and 2) IIS worker processes creating potential web shell files (.aspx, .ashx, .asmx, .svc) within sensitive web root directories, including Exchange and SharePoint paths.

Detects the Miasma worm utilizing the Bun runtime to execute malicious payloads. The detection looks for Bun processes executing scripts from /tmp/, specifically patterns associated with the Miasma worm, or processes matching the known malicious Bun runtime hash.

Detects a sequence of suspicious activities characteristic of an SSH-based worm. The rule correlates non-standard processes reading SSH private keys, the presence of known cryptominer components (lambsys, procq, isp.sh), and subsequent SSH network fan-out activity from the same host, indicating lateral movement.

Detects web server processes (IIS/Nginx) spawning native Windows or Linux shells (cmd.exe, sh, bash), immediately followed by reconnaissance or download tool execution (whoami.exe, ping.exe, certutil.exe, curl, wget) within a 2-minute window. This pattern is indicative of a web shell being used for initial system compromise and subsequent information gathering or tool deployment.

Identifies LLM API interaction followed shortly by the execution of Impacket tools (wmiexec.py, smbexec.py), simulating attackers using AI to formulate lateral movement commands.

Detects high-frequency requests (over 30 unique paths within a 5-minute window) to sensitive VPN-related URL paths that result in 403 (Forbidden) or 404 (Not Found) status codes from non-internal IP addresses. This behavior is indicative of an adversary performing directory enumeration or vulnerability scanning on public-facing infrastructure.

Detects path traversal injection attempts within the 'url' parameter targeting GitHub repository URLs. The rule inspects web request query parameters for various path traversal techniques, including standard dots, URL-encoded patterns, double-encoding, null-byte injections, and common file path indicators like '/etc/passwd' or '/proc/self/environ'.

Detects path traversal attempts in web server access logs by searching for dot-dot-slash (../), dot-dot-backslash (..\), or their URL-encoded equivalents (..). These patterns are indicative of efforts to access files or directories outside the intended web root.

This rule detects HTTP GET requests containing '/api/device/gate/' and the 'ngrok-skip-browser-warning' string in either the AdditionalExtensions, RequestClientApplication, csUriQuery, or csUserAgent fields. This pattern is indicative of traffic associated with ngrok, a legitimate reverse proxy tool that can be leveraged by threat actors for various malicious purposes, including C2, data exfiltration, or bypassing network restrictions. The rule consolidates logs from CommonSecurityLog, W3CIISLog, and DeviceNetworkEvents to identify such activity.

This rule detects potential XML External Entity (XXE) injection attempts by looking for specific XML-related keywords ('<?xml' or 'DOCTYPE') within the URI query string of IIS web server logs. It triggers an alert if three or more such attempts are observed from the same IP address within a one-hour window, indicating a possible automated scanning or attack.
