Malicious LNK File with Icon Smuggling Delivered
This rule detects the delivery of a malicious LNK file via HTTP that utilizes icon smuggling. It specifically looks for HTTP responses containing a URI with ".lnk" and the byte sequence "|4C 00 00 00|" at the beginning of the file data, which is characteristic of LNK files. Icon smuggling is a defense evasion technique where a malicious file disguises itself with a legitimate icon to trick users into executing it.
