2,154 detections

This rule detects potentially malicious DNS traffic where queries contain exceptionally long, encoded, or randomized subdomains. Attackers often use these patterns to exfiltrate data from a target network, bypassing traditional security controls by encapsulating information within DNS requests (DNS tunneling). The detection looks for DNS queries exceeding 100 bytes in length with specific character patterns indicative of Base64 or similar encoding.

This rule detects potential command and control (C2) beaconing activity using DNS by identifying high-frequency, long, and random subdomain queries. It monitors for DNS requests that exceed 40 bytes in size, feature complex alphanumeric subdomains, and exceed a defined threshold of 10 requests within a 60-second window, which is indicative of DNS tunneling or command-and-control exfiltration.

Detects HTTP responses containing JavaScript files larger than 1 MB, which is a signature behavior of the Bluekit PhaaS platform. This technique involves serving periodically rotated, obfuscated JavaScript bundles to evade static hash-based detection mechanisms.

This rule detects potentially malicious web traffic involving a redirect chain associated with HolaBrief and LoopedIn services, which are sometimes leveraged in phishing campaigns or credential harvesting. It identifies multi-hop redirect chains and connections to known suspicious IP addresses (217.182.211.237).

This rule detects potential scanning behavior (port or host sweeps) against specific, commonly targeted service ports (e.g., 443, 80, 8080) and correlates it with suspicious HTTP URI path requests associated with common exploit attempts (e.g., OWA, ECP, or management API paths).

This rule detects multiple outbound network connections to a specific set of known malicious C2 IP addresses on specific ports within a one-hour window. This behavior is indicative of a multi-payload delivery pattern associated with malware families such as Remcos, Agent Tesla, and RedLine.

Detects network outbound connections to known CDN domains over port 8084. This activity is often associated with the use of specific C2 frameworks (e.g., SNOWLIGHT or VSHELL) that leverage legitimate cloud infrastructure to blend malicious traffic within common CDN communication patterns.

Detects unauthorized inbound WebSocket connections from external (non-private) IP addresses to the AutoGen Studio MCP API endpoint at /api/mcp/ws/ on port 8081, followed by the execution of interpreter processes (autogenstudio, uvicorn, or python) on the same host, indicating a potential exploitation of an origin validation bypass for remote code execution.

This rule detects potential command and control (C2) activity associated with the SNOWLIGHT framework by identifying outbound WebSocket connections over HTTP to a specific known C2 IP (38.60.253.35) and port (8084). It correlates network flow logs (CommonSecurityLog) containing specific HTTP URL parameters (a=w64, t=ws_, p=8084) with EDR process network events (DeviceNetworkEvents) where the Windows Update Service process (wusvc.exe) is the initiator, indicating potential process masquerading or injection.

Detects a specific DNS-over-TCP exploitation sequence used to trigger a Use-After-Free (UAF) vulnerability in the c-ares library. The rule monitors for a series of DNS responses from a resolver containing a FORMERR (RCODE=2) response without an OPT RR, followed immediately by a TCP Reset (RST) packet. This pattern is characteristic of the exploitation attempt against applications utilizing c-ares, such as Node.js, curl, gRPC, Envoy, and Wireshark.

This rule monitors web request URLs and associated messages for common SQL injection characters and sequences, such as quotes and semicolons. It specifically targets requests involving the 'apiuser' account to identify potential attempts to manipulate or exploit backend database queries.

Detects one web session posting username, password, and MFA or one-time-code form fields through the same intermediary host. This behavior is indicative of an Adversary-in-the-Middle (AiTM) attack, where an attacker intercepts and relays authentication requests, including multi-factor authentication (MFA) codes, to gain unauthorized access.

This rule detects network activity associated with the StealC information stealer, specifically focusing on HTTP POST requests made to known command-and-control (C2) domains. It identifies characteristic URL patterns, such as randomly generated 16-character PHP files or specific index.php structures, which are used for bot registration and communication. The detection includes patterns indicative of RC4-encrypted payloads and behavior mimicking Amadey bot status checks.

This rule detects a high frequency of successful network connections from a single device to multiple unique destination IP addresses within a one-hour window. The targeted ports (445, 139, 3389, 22, 21) are commonly used for remote administrative access, file transfers, and remote shell services, which are frequently leveraged by adversaries for lateral movement. The threshold of 3 unique targets in an hour may indicate automated scanning or credential brute-forcing activity across the network.

This rule detects two distinct but related network-based adversary-in-the-middle (AiTM) techniques. The first part identifies ARP spoofing by looking for the same IP address being claimed by multiple MAC addresses within a short time frame, which can indicate an attacker is attempting to intercept local network traffic. The second part detects TLS certificate pinning failures, which can occur when an attacker attempts to perform a man-in-the-middle attack by presenting an untrusted or modified TLS certificate to a client that expects a specific certificate (pinning). This is often indicative of an attempt to intercept or decrypt encrypted network communications.
