VMMap Unsigned Dbghelp.DLL Potential Sideloading

This rule detects potential DLL sideloading of an unsigned 'dbghelp.dll' by the Sysinternals tool VMMap. Adversaries may place a malicious, unsigned 'dbghelp.dll' in a location where VMMap (vmmap.exe or vmmap64.exe) will load it instead of the legitimate, signed version. This technique can be used for defense evasion, persistence, or privilege escalation by executing arbitrary code within the context of a trusted application.
