This rule detects the suspicious archival of browser credential files (e.g., Login Data, Cookies, wallet.dat) or the transmission of data to common command-and-control (C2) services such as Telegram, Discord, or raw IP addresses using common system tools like PowerShell, curl, or certutil.
Detects the execution of PowerShell with suspicious command-line patterns indicative of obfuscation or malicious intent, including encoded commands, Base64 decoding, IEX combined with common download cmdlets, and specific obfuscation techniques like backtick concatenation, character casting, or variable concatenation.
Detects the abuse of the Windows Background Intelligent Transfer Service (BITS) via the bitsadmin command-line tool or PowerShell's Start-BitsTransfer to download files (such as .exe, .dll, or .ps1) or facilitate potential persistence. Adversaries use these methods to transfer malicious payloads stealthily in the background or to maintain persistence on a compromised host.
The following analytic detects the execution of multiple offensive toolkits and commands through the process execution datamodel. This method captures commands given directly to powershell.exe, allowing for the identification of suspicious activities including several well-known tools used for credential theft, lateral movement, and persistence. If confirmed malicious, this could lead to unauthorized access, privilege escalation, and potential compromise of sensitive information within the environment.
Detects suspicious network activity or credential exfiltration attempts occurring during package manager installation processes (npm, pip, yarn). The rule monitors for lifecycle scripts (e.g., preinstall, postinstall) spawning network utilities to external destinations or accessing common CI/CD secrets like AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY or GITHUB_TOKEN.
This rule detects PowerShell processes initiated with command-line arguments that indicate obfuscation (e.g., -enc, -encodedCommand) or attempts to download or execute external content (e.g., IEX, Net.WebClient, Invoke-WebRequest). This pattern is commonly observed during the initial execution of malicious payloads or tool delivery.
Detects the use of native Windows utilities (vssadmin.exe, wmic.exe, wbadmin.exe, bcdedit.exe) to delete volume shadow copies, backup catalogs, or modify boot configuration data to inhibit system recovery, a common behavior observed during ransomware and wiper attacks.
Detects the invocation of powershell.exe or pwsh.exe using encoded command flags (-EncodedCommand/-enc) in combination with stealth-oriented arguments such as -WindowStyle Hidden or -NoProfile. This pattern is frequently utilized by threat actors to execute obfuscated, malicious scripts while bypassing command-line visibility and standard profile configurations.
Detects instances where common scripting engines like Python or Node.js are used to spawn command shells (CMD, PowerShell, or Bash) followed by the execution of suspicious commands commonly associated with reconnaissance, file exfiltration, or lateral movement.
Detects the abuse of native Windows binaries Regsvr32.exe and Rundll32.exe to execute code from remote sources. Regsvr32 is monitored for 'Squiblydoo'-style execution where scrobj.dll is used to execute remote scriptlets via a URL. Rundll32 is monitored for loading DLLs from remote UNC/WebDAV paths or HTTP URLs, which is a common pattern for proxying malicious code execution to bypass local security controls.
This rule detects potentially malicious behavior in package manager post-install scripts (npm, pip). It monitors for child processes like shells, network utilities (curl, wget), or command-line arguments indicative of credential harvesting (e.g., accessing .ssh, .aws/credentials, environment variables) initiated by package management processes.
Detects suspicious PowerShell command execution patterns commonly associated with malicious activities, including base64-encoded commands, download cradles used to fetch external content, and various obfuscation techniques like character concatenation or backtick escaping to hide malicious intent.
Detects the creation of a Windows scheduled task named 'psychedelicloveUtils' using schtasks.exe, which is indicative of persistence mechanisms employed by the Psychedelic Stealer malware following installation.
This rule detects the creation of a new Windows service using common administrative tools like sc.exe or PowerShell's New-Service cmdlet that masquerades as the legitimate Windows Time service (w32time). The rule specifically flags service creation commands that use relevant service names but point to non-standard, suspicious executable paths or configurations, potentially indicating persistence or malicious activity by RemotePanel.
Detects a malicious sequence of actions originating from an Android Accessibility Service, specifically the 'SystemHelperService'. The activity involves the programmatic enablement of Developer Options and Wireless Debugging, followed by the unauthorized extraction of an ADB pairing PIN from the screen, bypassing user interaction requirements.
Detects the use of certutil.exe to decode files located within directories associated with the MSSQL service account (e.g., AppData, ServiceProfiles). This behavior is characteristic of an attack chain where an adversary uses SQL Server's xp_cmdshell to stage and decode a malicious payload from a base64-encoded file.
This rule detects suspicious process lineage where a Python interpreter executes system commands indicative of a compromised or trojanized pandas package. Specifically, it identifies Python processes spawning command-line utilities for malicious shell operations (e.g., cmd.exe /c calc.exe on Windows or uname -a on Linux/macOS), suggesting an attempt to verify successful arbitrary code execution via a hijacked library function like read_json.
Detects the suspicious execution of common Windows system binaries (LOLBAS) often used for proxying malicious code execution or deobfuscating payloads. This includes regsvr32.exe for remote scriptlet execution, mshta.exe for remote HTA execution, rundll32.exe for JavaScript or DLL function execution, and certutil.exe for decoding or retrieving remote files.
Detects the use of native Windows utilities (vssadmin, wbadmin, bcdedit, wmic) to delete shadow copies, backup catalogs, or modify boot configuration data to disable recovery. This behavior is commonly associated with ransomware and data destruction attacks intended to prevent system restoration.
Detects credential-dumping modules (such as nanodump, hashdump, and lsadump variants) associated with AdaptixC2 framework being invoked or used by the 'mscopilot.exe' process. The rule monitors for command-line arguments indicating credential extraction, unauthorized attempts to open handle to lsass.exe, and access to sensitive registry hives (SAM, Security, LSA) by the suspect process.
Detects the creation or modification of WMI Event Subscriptions (Filters, Consumers, and Bindings) using administrative tools like wmic, powershell, or mofcomp. This behavior is commonly used by adversaries to establish persistence or facilitate execution via WMI event triggers.
