Detects the creation of a suspicious file by 'svchost.exe' in the 'Personalization\LockScreenImage' directory, specifically looking for files that are not in the 'C:\Windows\' directory and do not have common image extensions like '.jpg', '.jpeg', or '.png'. This behavior can indicate an adversary attempting to download or stage malicious files using the 'desktopimgdownldr' functionality, which is often associated with T1105 (Ingress Tool Transfer).
This rule detects when specific legitimate Windows applications, including Microsoft Office programs, LOLBINs (Living Off the Land Binaries), and other common executables, create new executable files (.exe, .dll, .ocx) on disk. This behavior is often indicative of malicious activity, such as malware dropping payloads or using trusted processes to evade detection.
Detects the creation of the LiveKD driver (LiveKdD.SYS) by any process other than the legitimate LiveKD executables (livekd.exe or livek64.exe). This could indicate an attempt to load a malicious or unauthorized driver using a renamed or masqueraded process.
Detects the creation of the default PsExec service executable file, 'PSEXESVC.exe', which is indicative of PsExec being used to install and execute a service on a system.
Detects the loading of unsigned dbghelp.dll or dbgcore.dll, which are DLLs used for creating memory dumps. This activity is suspicious as these DLLs are often leveraged by attackers, for example, to dump credentials from processes like LSASS using the MiniDumpWriteDump API. Tools like ProcessHacker and the SilentTrinity C2 Framework are known to use this technique.
This rule detects the loading of 'sdiageng.dll' by 'msdt.exe'. This specific combination is known to be exploited by vulnerabilities such as CVE-2022-30190 (Follina) and DogWalk, which leverage msdt.exe for arbitrary code execution by loading a diagnostic library.
Detects the loading of DLLs associated with the Time Travel Debugging (TTD) utility. Adversaries can leverage TTD, specifically `tttracer.exe`, to execute malicious processes or dump sensitive process memory, such as that of `lsass.exe`, for credential access. This rule focuses on the dynamic loading of TTD-related DLLs, indicating potential use of the utility.
This rule detects outbound network connections initiated by the `cmstp.exe` process. `cmstp.exe` is the Microsoft Connection Manager Profile Installer, and it is uncommon for this legitimate binary to initiate outbound network connections. Such activity could indicate an adversary is abusing `cmstp.exe` to proxy execution of malicious code, potentially for defense evasion or UAC bypass, by loading malicious INF files or scriptlets from remote servers.
Detects an executable initiating a network connection to "ngrok" tunneling domains. Attackers were seen using this "ngrok" in order to store their second stage payloads and malware. While communication with such domains can be legitimate, often times is a sign of either data exfiltration by malicious actors or additional download.
Detects suspicious network connections initiated by specific Windows binaries (regsvr32.exe, rundll32.exe, dllhost.exe) when they are executed without any command-line parameters. This behavior can indicate an attempt to evade detection by leveraging legitimate system binaries for malicious network communication, potentially associated with malware like Raspberry Robin.
