This rule detects when 'pythonw.exe' performs a high volume of distinct database file reads (5 or more) within a 3-minute window. This behavior is indicative of potential credential harvesting or data exfiltration by malicious Python scripts, as described in the referenced blog post about threat actors using AI hype in social engineering campaigns.

This rule detects repeated access attempts (read or write) to files or directories commonly associated with software build artifacts (e.g., 'build', 'release', 'artifact', 'bin', 'dist'). It specifically looks for Security Event ID 4656, which indicates a handle to an object was requested, and filters out common system accounts to focus on user-initiated access. A high number of access attempts (5 or more) within an hour by a non-system user to these sensitive object names could indicate an attempt to compromise or exfiltrate software supply chain components.

This rule detects a malicious npm package attempting to read Claude MCP connection settings, which may contain sensitive information like API keys and server details. The theft of MCP configuration could allow attackers to impersonate AI integrations. If this rule triggers, the package should be removed, and any associated API keys should be rotated. Further investigation should involve questioning the user about recent software installations or clicked links, and engaging the security team if the situation remains unclear.
