This rule detects suspicious entries in the RunMRU (Most Recently Used) registry key that indicate potential persistence mechanisms. It specifically looks for entries containing DNS-related tools (like nslookup, dig, host), other common system utilities (ping, tracert, ipconfig, powershell, cmd.exe, wmic, curl, wget, certutil, bitsadmin), or suspicious flags commonly associated with obfuscated or malicious commands (e.g., base64 encoding, web requests, common sensitive paths). The rule also correlates these registry modifications with subsequent process creations to confirm execution.

This rule detects various activities associated with the FoxKitsune malware, including network staging, suspicious file drops in SysWOW64, unusual svchost execution, service persistence, and attempts to tamper with Windows Defender. It correlates these events to identify potential FoxKitsune infections.

Detects a command-line pattern where nslookup is used to query a DNS server, and its output is piped to other commands to parse and execute a payload. This is a technique used by ClickFix campaigns to deliver malware via DNS.

Detects the creation of files in specific staging directories used by the CRESCENTHARVEST malware for collecting keylogs, browser data, and Telegram sessions before exfiltration. The rule specifically looks for 'daT.txt' in 'spool\Drivers\color', and any file creation within '\Windows\Temp\sysdriver\' or '\Windows\Temp\tdata\'.

This rule detects attempts to download the 'clawd.bot' or 'openclaw.ai' installation scripts using various command-line tools. It specifically looks for the use of 'curl', 'wget', 'aria2c', 'fetch', 'powershell', 'pwsh', 'certutil', 'bitsadmin', or 'mshta' when their command lines contain either 'clawd.bot/install.sh' or 'openclaw.ai/install.sh'. This activity is indicative of potential malware deployment or initial access attempts related to the OpenClaw/Clawd threat.

Detects behavioral indicators associated with a malware campaign distributing a credential and crypto-wallet stealer disguised as a Windows 11 update. Detection is based on TTPs rather than IOCs for longevity: suspicious directory creation, obfuscated PowerShell execution, and registry-based persistence.

Detects the execution or loading of the Tiny C Compiler (TCC) runtime (libtcc.dll, tcc.exe) by non-development processes. This 'living-on-edge' compilation technique, observed in use by actors like Lotus Blossom, helps bypass static file-based detections by compiling malicious code directly on the host.

This rule detects suspicious enumeration of Azure Blob, File, Table, Queue, or DFS storage accounts by internal users. It identifies devices making network connections to public Azure storage URLs using potentially suspicious processes (e.g., PowerShell, Python, AzCopy, curl, wget, WinSCP, FileZilla, Storage Explorer). The rule then analyzes the distinct storage accounts accessed and uses a Jaccard index to identify unusual naming conventions among the accessed storage accounts, potentially indicating an insider attempting to discover or exfiltrate data from unfamiliar storage resources.

Detects suspicious network connections to 'outlook-one.vercel.app' or 'api.telegram.org' when initiated by common web browsers (msedge.exe, chrome.exe, firefox.exe) or Outlook (outlook.exe). This pattern can indicate phishing attempts, credential harvesting, or data exfiltration via Telegram bots.

Detects a specific obfuscated PowerShell command-line pattern used by the LunarApplication malware to execute scripts from the %TEMP% directory while bypassing execution policies. This rule looks for PowerShell processes with specific flags to bypass execution policy and accept piped input, combined with distinctive randomized script extensions (.yiz.ps1 or .unx.ps1) typically used by this malware.

This query detects multiple patterns of post-exploitation activity related to SolarWinds WebHelpDesk (WHD) vulnerabilities. It first identifies devices where suspicious commands are executed from the WHD directory, and then retrieves all related suspicious activities from those devices. The detection logic includes identifying suspicious child processes spawned by the WHD java service, suspicious command execution from the WHD directory, and suspicious child processes of ToolsIQ.exe, a component known to be abused in WHD exploits.

Detects the Microsoft Edge WebView2 process (msedgewebview2.exe) being spawned by suspicious parent processes that typically do not use embedded web content, such as PowerShell, CMD, or common lolbins. This activity is a key indicator of the 'AI-Proxy' technique where malware uses WebView2 to programmatically interact with AI web interfaces for C2.
