Detects an AutoIt interpreter executing outside the usual AutoIt installation directories. Identification uses either the normal executable name or the AutoIt code-signing publisher, allowing Cortex XDR to identify many renamed copies without relying on the unsupported OriginalFileName Sigma field.

Detects PowerShell commands using the call operator with 'Get-Command' (gcm) or 'Get-Alias' (gal) containing wildcards to resolve and execute sensitive cmdlets. This is a common technique to evade static string-based detections for commands like 'Invoke-Expression' or 'Invoke-WebRequest'.

This rule detects the execution of 'hh.exe' (Microsoft HTML Help Executable) specifically when it is used to open '.chm' (Compiled HTML Help) files. Adversaries often abuse 'hh.exe' to execute malicious code embedded within CHM files as a defense evasion technique, leveraging a legitimate system binary to proxy execution.

This rule detects a multi-stage potential local privilege escalation attack sequence (often associated with Dirty Frag TTPs) where an ELF binary is created in a user-controlled or temporary directory, subsequently executed, and finally initiates a 'su' process.

Detects exclusive SMB file handle requests (ShareAccess = 0), which are utilized by the GhostLock denial-of-service technique.
GhostLock is a proof-of-concept tool that evades traditional write-based ransomware defenses by locking files rather than encrypting them, causing widespread STATUS_SHARING_VIOLATION errors.
Note: To effectively identify the attack and reduce false positives, implement thresholding/aggregation in your SIEM. It is highly recommended to alert only when the count of these events exceeds 500 within a 5-minute window, grouped by the source 'IpAddress'.
