Detects the execution of the 'search:' or 'search-ms:' URI handlers utilizing the 'crumb=location:' parameter pointing to UNC path. This behavior forces outbound NTLM authentication and can be abused to leak Net-NTLMv2 hashes, exploiting an unpatched vulnerability similar to CVE-2026-33829 in the Snipping Tool.

This rule detects the execution of package managers by common parent processes (code.exe, cmd.exe, powershell.exe) when they are used to install or add packages. It looks for package names that include scope (e.g., @scope/package), version numbers (e.g., package@1.2.3). This pattern could indicate an attempt to introduce malicious or unauthorized packages into a development environment or system.
Attempts to discover running processes on a Windows system using either native utilities or PowerShell commands/API calls. Adversaries often use these methods to gain information about running processes as part of discovery.

Detects modification of targeted registry keys commonly used for persistence

and defense evasion via startup execution.
Detects the creation of local user accounts on macOS using the 'dscl' command-line utility, specifically looking for the '-create' action within the '/Users/' directory and the presence of 'UniqueID' or 'IsHidden' parameters. The rule excludes common system-related UniqueIDs (0, 1, 202, 205, 248) to reduce false positives from legit system operations.
Detects the use of the `sysadminctl` utility with the `addUser` or `-addUser` command-line arguments, which can be used to create new user accounts on macOS systems. This activity could indicate an adversary attempting to establish persistences by creating new accounts.
Detects BITS job configuration files with known persistence mechanisms, such as running at startup
Detects the use of the 'setcap' utility with parameters that assign all Linux capabilities to a binary file. This capability can be abused to create a backdoored binary, enabling unauthorized access, privilege escalation, and bypassing security controls.
Detects uncommon or suspicious child processes spawning from a VsCode process. This could indicate an attempt of persistence via VsCode tasks or terminal profiles.
Detects commands writing to authorized_keys files, a common SSH persistence method.
