This rule detects attempts to access a webshell that has been dropped into a keystore folder on an Oracle WebLogic server. The detection is based on the URI query containing '*/config/keystore/*.js*', which is indicative of an attacker trying to interact with a webshell placed in a specific directory often associated with the CVE-2018-2894 vulnerability.

Detects exploitation attempts of the OWASSRF vulnerability targeting Microsoft Exchange servers using publicly available Proof-of-Concept (POC) code. This rule specifically looks for requests to the OWA endpoint attempting to access the PowerShell backend endpoint, characterized by a specific user agent, POST method, successful status code (200), and URI query containing both '/owa/mastermailbox' and '/powershell'. This indicates an attempt to leverage the vulnerability for remote code execution.

This rule detects when an Nginx worker process crashes and generates a core dump, indicated by the log message 'exited on signal 6 (core dumped)'. This event can signify a serious underlying problem with the Nginx configuration, a plugin, or potentially an exploitation attempt targeting the Nginx server. Core dumps contain the memory state of the process at the time of the crash, which can be valuable for debugging but also sensitive if exposed.

This rule detects attempts to inject Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) payloads via GET requests in web access logs. It specifically looks for common XSS strings and encoded variations within the request URL, such as '<script>', '<iframe>', '<svg>', 'document.cookie', 'document.domain', 'onerror=', 'onresize=', 'onload=', 'onmouseover=', '${alert', 'javascript:alert', and their URL-encoded forms. The rule filters out requests that result in a 404 HTTP status code to reduce false positives.

Detects an attempt to leverage the vulnerable servlet "mboximport" for an unauthenticated remote command injection in Zimbra Collaboration Suite Email Server, specifically targeting CVE-2022-27925. The rule looks for POST requests to the '/service/extension/backup/mboximport' endpoint with specific query parameters ('account-name', 'ow', 'no-switch', 'append') and then checks for subsequent requests to '/zimbraAdmin/*.jsp' with a 200 status code, indicating potential successful exploitation and web shell access.

Detects a process spawned by the terminal service server process (termsvcs), which could indicate an exploitation attempt of CVE-2019-0708, commonly known as BlueKeep. The rule specifically looks for processes where the parent command line contains both 'svchost.exe' and 'termsvcs', while filtering out legitimate processes like rdpclip.exe, csrss.exe, wininit.exe, and winlogon.exe.

Detects exploitation of the DNS RCE vulnerability (CVE-2020-1350) by monitoring for suspicious sub-processes spawned by the `dns.exe` service. This rule specifically looks for processes created by `dns.exe` that are not common or expected system processes, indicating potential post-exploitation activity after successful exploitation of the vulnerability.

Detects possible successful exploitation of CVE-2021-26858 (ProxyLogon) by monitoring for the creation of non-standard files by the Exchange Server's Unified Messaging service (UMWorkerProcess.exe). This activity could indicate the dropping of web shells or other malicious content post-exploitation.

Detects the spawning of suspicious child processes by an Atlassian Confluence server, specifically looking for shell interpreters (sh, bash, dash, ksh, zsh, csh, fish), curl, wget, or python being executed as child processes of the Confluence Java process. This behavior is indicative of successful exploitation of CVE-2022-26134, a critical remote code execution vulnerability in Atlassian Confluence. The rule focuses on the post-exploitation phase where an attacker would execute commands on the compromised server.

Detects events generated by user-mode applications when they call the CveEventWrite API, indicating that a known vulnerability is potentially being exploited. Microsoft started using this log in January 2020, notably with CVE-2020-0601 (a Windows CryptoAPI vulnerability). However, the rule's description notes that this log has historically seen limited use for reporting CVEs.

Detects the creation of a suspicious Alternate Data Stream (ADS) file, specifically a ':Zone.Identifier' stream, by processes other than common web browsers. The ':Zone.Identifier' ADS is used by Windows to mark files downloaded from the internet, indicating their origin and often triggering security warnings. This rule looks for the creation of this ADS with a 'ZoneId=3' (indicating an internet origin) on executable or document file types. By filtering out known browser processes, the rule aims to identify instances where other applications or scripts might be creating these ADS files, potentially as a defense evasion technique to bypass security warnings or to masquerade malicious files.
