Detects execution of shell commands (cmd, powershell) by processes associated with AvisLoader (e.g., 78324.exe, VLCAssistant.exe, auto.exe), followed by the creation or modification of files in suspicious user-writable directories (e.g., appdata, temp) within a 10-minute window, suggesting potential C2 activity and secondary payload staging.

Detects the creation of image files (.bmp, .png, .jpg, .jpeg) by processes executing from non-standard directories such as AppData or ProgramData. This behavior is indicative of unauthorized screen capture activities often used by malware for pattern-of-life monitoring, where screenshots are staged in temporary locations before exfiltration. The rule filters out common legitimate applications known to perform screen captures.

Detects the creation of specific file artifacts and process execution associated with the PIVOTPIPE .NET loader. The rule monitors for the creation of temporary working directories prefixed with 'nb_' in '\Windows\Temp\', the staging of associated configuration and payload files (such as 'agent.json', 'pk.der', 'sleepmask.o', 'core.pak'), and the execution of associated process names like 'netbeacon_pivot.exe', 'pivot_hop2_kasp.exe', or 'x64beacon.exe'.

Detects the creation or modification of known PIVOTPIPE loader artifacts, specifically the 'sleepmask.o' file and related configuration or helper files ('agent.json', 'pk.der', 'core.pak'), within temporary directories prefixed with 'nb_' under the Windows Temp folder. These files are used by the PIVOTPIPE loader to implement sleep-masking techniques that encrypt beacon memory during dormant periods to evade detection.

Detects the creation of specific debug log files by PIVOTPIPE Cobalt Strike-compatible payloads in the Windows temporary directory. These artifacts indicate active post-exploitation activity, specifically operations involving process token manipulation or impersonation.

Detects the creation of a hidden file named '.git-checker' within system temporary directories (e.g., /tmp or \Temp\). This filename is often associated with adversary activity attempting to stage files, maintain persistence, or perform reconnaissance.

Detects the creation of a file named 'DCRCVDrv.sys'. This filename is historically associated with malicious kernel-mode drivers used in cyberattacks, such as the DCRDRV exploit or related persistence/evasion mechanisms involving driver installation.

Detects the presence of specific debug log files ('nb_hook_dbg.txt', 'nb_sleep_dbg.txt', etc.) created within 'C:\WINDOWS\Temp\' by the PIVOTPIPE malware family. These artifacts are produced during the initialization of indirect syscall and sleep-mask evasion routines, serving as a proxy indicator for these stealthy execution techniques.

Detects the 'comet.exe' process (Perplexity AI agent) performing file read, write, rename, or creation operations outside of standard browser paths (e.g., AppData, Temp, Downloads). This behavior potentially indicates the process is being leveraged for unauthorized data access or staging files on the local filesystem.

Detects the creation of common script files (.bat, .ps1, .vbs, .cmd, .js) within the Windows startup directory. This is a common technique used by adversaries or compromised AI agent frameworks to achieve persistence by ensuring arbitrary code executes upon user login.

Detects the creation or modification of documents in common formats (e.g., .txt, .md, .docx, .pdf) that contain strings indicative of prompt-injection attempts. These strings are commonly used to manipulate the behavior of AI agents or Large Language Models (LLMs) that may process or index these files automatically.

Detects the creation of executable or script files (.py, .js, .mjs, .sh, .ps1) within hidden configuration directories associated with AI coding assistants and development tools (e.g., .claude, .vscode, .cursor). This activity may indicate an attempt to hijack development environments by dropping malicious scripts into locations that tools or developers might inadvertently execute or trust.

Detects a potential destructive activity pattern involving the staging of a payload in a non-standard directory (utilizing a directory name with a trailing space) followed by a burst of file deletions on the same device. This behavior is indicative of a secondary destructive payload execution, often associated with disk-wiping malware.

Detects the execution of an installer file (.exe, .msi, .scr) located in common download or temporary directories that masquerades as a legitimate application (e.g., KeePass, Adobe Flash) or a medical document. The rule specifically identifies this behavior when it occurs within an hour of activity involving messaging applications like WhatsApp or Telegram, which is a known tactic in the 'CHOSEN BRICK' social engineering delivery chain.

Detects the creation of a shortcut file named 'AppUpdateHelper.lnk' within the Windows Startup folder by the 'UpdateAssistant.exe' process. This pattern may indicate an attempt to establish persistence by an application posing as an update process.

This rule monitors for the installation of the 'indexed-btree' JavaScript package via common package managers (npm, yarn, pnpm) or its presence within a 'node_modules' directory. This specific package has been associated with supply chain attacks where malicious code is embedded within dependencies to compromise build systems or environments.

This rule detects the presence of the malicious indexed-btree npm package by searching for its obfuscated runtime loader triggered via BTree.prototype.set. The malware attempts to spawn a detached Node.js process to execute a secondary payload (sharedLoad.min.js) instead of relying on standard installation scripts, allowing it to maintain persistence and bypass simple static analysis.
