DragonReturn/Millenium RAT AllocateAndInitializeSid Admin SID Check Before UAC Elevation
Detects a sequence of sensitive Windows API calls (AllocateAndInitializeSid, CheckTokenMembership, or ShellExecuteW with runas) occurring within the same process on a host. This behavior is indicative of privilege escalation attempts or unauthorized token manipulation, often observed in malicious processes attempting to elevate privileges or verify token permissions.
